--- Comment #39 from Magnus Enger <magnus at libriotech.no> ---
This is clearly a step in the right direction, the cleanups added by these
patches are sorely needed.
But I think the actions of the cleanup-script should be governed by sysprefs,
not command line switches. There are several reasons for this:
- On a package install with several instances this means we can have one line
in the cron-setup to trigger the script, with koha-foreach, but all the sites
can have their individual configurations
- Libraries that do not have hands on access to their Koha server can change
the setup without going through their provider
- And most importantly, I think: Libraries can tell what they are cleaning up
and anonymizing, by looking at the sysprefs, instead of having to figure out
what the command line switches are and do. (I *think* it is a requirement of
the GDPR that libraries should be able to tell what they are doing with their
data. Having a few sysprefs to look at seems way better than having to ask a
provider what the command line switches of the cronjob are set to.)
But priority number 1 should be getting these patches in in the first place,
then we can do the enhancement on another bug.
