3.8.10 on Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS
by Paul 04 Mar '13

04 Mar '13

Just finished a brand new (sandbox) install from tarball of 3.8.10 on a 64-bit Ubuntu 12.04.2 (note last digit) LTS server. All seems good, but have not had much time yet to play with it -- install went smoothly, no problems, 1 hour 35 mins from partitioning to fully functional copy of production db including our customizations. One question that I have not yet had time to fully look into, so I'm looking for pointers/suggestions, please. dpkg (ubuntu.12.04.packages) asks for libdbd-sqlite2-perl which is no longer available (except in the "unsupported" Universe repository), replaced by libdbd-sqlite3-perl which I installed. koha_perl_deps.pl -m gives the "2" version as "missing - not required" but after install <About><Perl modules> highlights DBD::SQLite2 in bright pink! I haven't yet found any lack of functionality, but could one of you suggest a "test" that specifically calls this module? Or does the "not required" mean "not in production machines"? In which case the bright pink highlighting might be a "bug - enhancement - low priority." Many thanks and best regards - Paul

Deletion of changelanguage.pl and opac-changelanguage.pl
by Tomas Cohen Arazi 04 Mar '13

Working on Bug 9735 [1] I ended up writing C4::Templates::getlanguagecookie and hooking C4::Auth::get_template_and_user in a way that the language can be changed using URL parameters, and the corresponding is properly set. Using this new code, the language selection could be simplified by using JavaScript + document.location to generate the links to languages. What do u think?

My talk on Live DVD blue print
by Vimal Kumar V. 02 Mar '13

02 Mar '13

Dear Friends, I am in a sad situation. When I try to click on edit button of Koha wiki page, it ask to download a index.php file. So, I could not add the suggestion in Talk page. Please consider my suggestions and add in talk page. 1. Inclusion of too many materials (e.g. Video tutorials) make the DVD big. Inclusion of manual is OK. It will take too much time for download. 2. Addition of Offline client is a nice suggestion. Need to add any other useful small tools (e.g. glabel) ? 3. Chris mentioned about GUI for backup from Koha staff client. This feature available in Koha 3.12 version? 4. We can create a new framework for customized fields. Upgrade to new version shatter this framework? 5. In my opinion Remastersys is good for creating a clone of the system. Simplicity is the main feature. Users can make ISO of the system as a backup using remastersys. Its backup mechanism can retain user settings and the exact environment of the master PC. Regards, -- Vimal Kumar V.

Opinions needed on bug 9322
by Liz Rea 01 Mar '13

01 Mar '13

I'm really not sure what the best solution is here - opinions? http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=9322 I think we do not want to lose any data regarding transfers, no matter how weird or nonsensical an action might be, a librarian might legitimately want to do chained transfers, so we should not disallow that. A librarian might also legitimately want to have a transfer and a reserve going at the same time and choose between them at check-in time. So what is the best way to fix this problem of multiple transfers from multiple sources (branchtransfers and reserves transfers being the different origins of transfers) being all cancelled when one is completed? The current behaviour is blocking other very useful (and paid for) development - and the bug itself causes librarians discomfort quite often in the form of "lost and stuck reserves." Thanks for your time and thought, Liz
