Error on make
by Philippe Blouin 22 Aug '25

22 Aug '25

Hi! Unexpected issue with our dev installs: when doing "make" (after the perl Makefile.PL, without errors), I now get make: *** No rule to make target 'api/v1/swagger/swagger_bundle.json', needed by 'pm_to_blib'. Stop. on master. First time I try in 2025. I see two possibilities: I need to upgrade my koha-deps package (we're at 24.05), or there's something wrong in the code. Can someone in a different timezone enlighten me ? Practically, I can't upgrade the packages to 24.11, our installs are all on 24.05. Any hack is welcomed :-) Cheers, -- Logo inLibro <https://inLibro.com> Philippe Blouin Directeur de la technologie T 833-INLIBRO (465-4276) <tel:833-465-4276>, poste 230 C philippe.blouin(a)inLibro.com www.inLibro.com <https://inLibro.com>

Seeking advice for using the Brother PTD610BT label printer, with Koha, to print spine labels
by Alex Buckley 19 Aug '25

19 Aug '25

Kia ora Koha community, We have a Koha partner library (running Koha 24.11.07) trying to use the Brother PTD610BT label printer, for printing item call number spine labels, but are having problems with the following: * Finding the correct dimensions to set in the Koha label template. * What tape cutting mode option to set on the printer, to stop excess tape being wasted when they print. --- Is anyone else in the Koha community successfully using the Brother PTD610BT label printer to print spine labels? If yes, would you mind please sharing: * What Koha label template settings you are using for printing on the 12mm and/or 24 mm tapes? * What tape cutting mode option are you using, with this printer, to prevent excess wasted tape? If others are using a different printer to print on 12mm or 24mm tape, what Koha label template settings have you found to be successful? Any advice would be much appreciated! Many thanks in advance, Alex -- *Alex Buckley (he/him)* Developer, Implementation Lead | Rōpū kohinga *Catalyst.Net Limited - Expert Open Source Solutions* *Catalyst.Net Limited - a Catalyst IT group company* www.catalyst.net.nz <http://www.catalyst.net.nz> Follow Catalyst Koha on Twitter <https://twitter.com/catalystkoha> | Subscribe to the Catalyst Koha newsletter <https://zcu.nz/SDVV> Catalyst Logo CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This email is intended for the named recipients only.

More than three overdue actions
by Tim Koop 17 Aug '25

17 Aug '25

Hello Koha developers. Our head librarian has asked us for the ability to remind patrons every week about overdue items. I've noticed that the "Overdue notice/status triggers" page only lists up to three. Is it possible to increase this? Or is it possible to email a litter every week? The answer to the above questions might be "No, it's not possible". So in that case, is there some sort of plugin that would give us this feature? Or would the developer community be open to accepting a patch if we wanted to develop this feature ourselves and submit it to the project? Please advise. Thank you.
