http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=6914 Bug #: 6914 Summary: koha_perl_deps.pl color option changes user's shell prompt Classification: Unclassified Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P5 Component: Installation and upgrade (command-line installer) AssignedTo: gmcharlt@gmail.com ReportedBy: gbarniskis@gmail.com QAContact: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org This is a repeatable bug on a stock Debian squeeze fresh install with default Terminal settings (black text on white background). Simply run perl koha_perl_deps.pl -a -c The script's assertion of 'bold white' affects the Terminal shell prompt, which on default Terminal settings makes it white on white, a.k.a. suboptimal. A correction is proposed in two parts. First, use blue not white for the header and footer, as this should render fine for both default Terminal settings and for those workers who prefer light text on a dark background. Second, at the end of the utility we should return the shell to the condition we found it in regardless of report color settings. This seems to do it: print color 'reset' if $color; I will submit a patch shortly. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA Contact for the bug.
