[Koha-devel] Cautionary warnings in longoverdue.pl

[Owen Leonard]

misc/longoverdue.pl contains this warning;

WARNING:  This script is known to be faulty.  It is NOT recommended to
use multiple --lost options.
          See http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=2883

The bug in question has been closed ("RESOLVED - WORKSFORME"). Can we
now remove that warning from the script? What about these FIXMEs? Are
they still valid, and should that affect the help text?

# FIXME: We need three pieces of data to operate:
#         ~ lower bound (number of days),
#         ~ upper bound (number of days),
#         ~ new lost value.
#        Right now we get only two, causing the endrange hack.  This
is a design-level failure.
# FIXME: do checks on --lost ranges to make sure they are exclusive.
# FIXME: do checks on --lost ranges to make sure the authorized values exist.
# FIXME: do checks on --lost ranges to make sure don't go past endrange.
# FIXME: convert to using pod2usage
# FIXME: allow --help or -h
