Upgrade from Koha 3.0.0 RC1 to 3.00.03
by Allen, Justin 09 Sep '09

09 Sep '09

Hi All, I was hoping to get some guidance on the feasibility of performing an upgrade/migration from Koha 3.0.0 RC1 to the current release 3.00.03. The organization I work for has been using the RC1 version since its release last summer and tasked me with the project of trying to resolve some bugs that have cropped during their use of Koha. As a starting point I thought it should be possible to upgrade the software and see if that would clear up the problems they have had. I am unsure of the compatibility of the database data and schemas on RC1 compared 3.00.03. Will the upgrade be as simple as deploying the new binaries as outlined in the upgrade section of the INSTALL file? What other pitfalls should I be aware of? Thanks, --==*!!!!*!!!!*!!!!*!!!!*!!!!*==-- Justin Allen Teradata Engineering Intern - TCAM R&D

New topic branch - sysprefs_editor
by Galen Charlton 07 Sep '09

07 Sep '09

Hi, I have created a new topic branch on the main public Git repository called sysprefs_editor for the system preference editing enhancements that Jesse Weaver has contributed. I encourage all and sundry to test. One way of doing this is by creating a local tracking branch in your Git clone like this: $ git fetch $ git branch --track sysprefs_editor origin/sysprefs_editor $ git checkout sysprefs_editor # test, test, test, testity test $ git checkout <your_normal_working_branch> There are no database changes in this tree, which will of course make it easier to switch between this branch and your normal branch. There's no bug for the enhancement yet, so I ask Jesse to create one and point us to some documentation of his approach for maintaining the metadata for the preferences.

Branch merge - labels_recon
by Galen Charlton 06 Sep '09

06 Sep '09

Hi, I have merged the labels_recon branch, which contains Chris Nighswonger's rework of the labels interface, to master. A summary of Chris' work can be found in the description for commit f4d46222e85bd3009b3cdddd7c391624e14642cb: "NOTE: This patch is the first of 40 which almost completely re-factor the label creator code into a hopefully more scalable form. The new format is a move in direction of OO handling labels, batches, templates, layouts, and profiles as objects thus permitting easier implementation of features and enhancements. It should be possible to export label data in any format one might choose with the simple addition of a script similar to those included which produce pdf, csv, and xml format. One of the larger improvements is a change in workflow that results in template, layout, and start label selection occurring just before export. There are also various bugfixes and smaller interface improvements woven into it. It should be noted that this patch series removes the patron card creator feature for the present. This feature was only partially completed. A completed variation will be submitted as a separate patch series to follow in the near future. The following bugs and enhancements are fixed by this series of patches: 2944 Search to add items to a label batch broken 2061 labels_conf DB values: NULL vs. 0 2511 CSV format string is not cleared when unselected in the label layout editor 2515 Re-factor C4::Labels::DrawSpineText 2823 Label Generator not generating barcodes 3171 Problem due to internationalization in label-create-template.tmpl in de-DE and possibly others 3180 Active settings for label settings should be set at print time only This work was sponsored by Foundations Bible College & Seminary, Dunn, NC USA" I would like to thank Chris for his hard work on this module, and encourage everybody to test and submit patches. I'll be keeping the labels_recon topic branch going for a while. Regarding the patron card feature that was removed in the course of this rework, Chris has told me that he's committed to get it running again by the end of the year. However, I would like to see if we can collectively get it working in time for the 3.2 release, so patches for the patron card feature will be accepted for 3.2 even after the feature freeze tomorrow.

Reconciliation branch --mail à destination de la communauté Besoin de ton aval
by LAURENT Henri-Damien 04 Sep '09

04 Sep '09

Hi, After discussing in Yesterday's IRC meeting we have two options : a) test master AND reconciliation branch at about the same time which would double the work. But reconciliation branch could be already there (you can check it out from koha-maintenance/reconciliation) b) rework the reconciliation branch and come down to a simple bug fixing branch. Thus, we can expect 3.2 will be out on time. And 3.0.4 will contain only bugfixes and will be more stable but will take some overtime to make it. And we would have only one month to wait for all the enhanced contents, and only one version to test thoroughly. 3.0.x would include only bug fixes and would therfore respect the purpose of a stable branch. I have done some job on this reconciliation and I included much more than just bug fixes. But still, I would rather have something more stable and which fix problems than something likely to bring up (and doubles) problems. And I think that it would be sensible too. I wanted to give you the opportunity to speak your minds and tell what you want. -- Henri-Damien LAURENT Release Maintainer 3.0.x

I read titles of all commit in koha-maintenance/reconciliation at present. in fact are all bug fixes exept: -- a cataloguing plugin -- a inventory plugin -- a basic rework on Authosities There not any major new feature, as I see. If Henri-Damien thinks that there are not more bug fix to add, we think that we could start to test it. CILEA doesn't think to offer 3.2 to users before Jan 2010 So we can test 3.0.4 quite well.
