https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=9988 --- Comment #40 from Marcel de Rooy <m.de.rooy@rijksmuseum.nl> --- (In reply to Jacek Ablewicz from comment #39)

For "real" merge usage case (merging two different authority records), if the merge gets postponed, when merge() is called later by the cron job, authority record with $mergefrom ID is no longer there (it got deleted from the database by authorities/merge.pl script ?). This search in postponed merge() call

my $authfrom = Koha::Authorities->find($mergefrom);

will fail, and $authtypefrom | $auth_tag_to_report_from | @record_from would be empty. I.e.: old authority record heading, stored in the merge requests table will never be used.

(but there is a strong possibility I'm very much mistaken about that, authorities-related code got changed quite a lot lately).

The code is designed to overcome this situation. There are tests simulating it too. Take a look :) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
