[Koha-devel] Modules only on CPAN

[Fridolin SOMERS]

Hie,

Could Data::Pagination be removed from master ?
It is defined in Koha/SearchEngine/Solr/Search.pm but not used.
It is only used in opac/search.pl.

I think pagination should not be done into perl. We use JQuery 
Datatables for that.

Regards,
