> 
> - I confirm hold for patron ONE
> 
> - I switch to Holds Awaiting Pickup in the Circulation module
> 
> - I see the hold waiting for Patron ONE
> 
> - I cancel this hold.
> 
> - I get following message (as expected after applying the patch): 
> -------------------
> This hold (Fuss- und Wanderwege bei der Planung von ländlichen Wegnetzen im

> [Daten absenden]  (a button, it seems to take the OS language)

When I translated "Daten absenden" to English, it said "Data send", so it's the
equivalent of "Submit". I think "OK" would be better than "Submit", but that's
outside of the scope of this particular patch.

Yes, now that the list is empty, you have to manually check-in the item again
to generate the prompt to "confirm hold" for Patron TWO. This is the default
Koha behaviour.

In Bug 8449, I change the wording and styling of the messages you receive
during this process, and I've indicated that you need to check-in the item to
continue processing the hold. 

Sounds like it worked though :)
