            Bug ID: 21480
           Summary: misc/translator/translate does not work with perl 5.26
 Change sponsored?: ---
           Product: Koha
           Version: master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5 - low
         Component: translate.koha-community.org

Perl 5.26 (or earlier) introduced a security feature, where implicitly
including the program directory as a Perl library directory no longer happens
(perl -I. ).

This causes translate to fail because it cannot find the *.pm -files in it's
own directory.

This patch adds the familiar mantra
    use lib $FindBin::Bin;
to the relevant scripts.

To test:

1. Install Ubuntu18.04 or something else with Perl 5.26
2. Install Koha (we use the dev-install)
3. cd $KOHA_PATH/misc/trnaslator/
4. perl translate create fi-FI
5. Observe problems with missing modules.
