14:17 owen Coming to us from Atlanta, brendan?
14:18 brendan coming to you from Atlanta
14:18 morning owen
14:19 hdl_laptop hi all
14:19 * owen grumbles about the new "Clear screen" button on the circ page
14:19 brendan hmmm...  why's that owen?
14:20 hdl_laptop a simple clear would have been much simpler.... I think
14:20 owen 1. Because it's ugly. 2. Because you can click "check out" with no barcode and get the same result
14:20 brendan I remember the clear screen button from my horizon days
14:21 wasn't sure if I used it then either
14:22 schuster Must be in a newer patch as I don't have that yet.
14:22 In production that is.
14:22 owen No schuster it was a recently approved patch
14:23 jdavidb One of ours, I think.  an East Brunsick PL idea.  (ex-Horizon, sure 'nuf.)
14:23 schuster Ah - someone indicated that several of the PTFS enhancements were in bugzilla - is there an easy way for me to find them?
14:24 jdavidb jwagner as the filer, maybe?
14:29 * owen should calm down about the button as it's controlled by a syspref
14:31 jdavidb The patches we're doing--PTFS is very cognizant of the fact that EBPL is an odd library, and wants odd things.  Most everything substantial we're sending, and quite a lot of the little tweaky ones, will have a syspref.
14:37 rhcl joined #koha
14:48 kf passwords in clear text is also a Horizon thing
14:48 and really odd to want that back
14:50 jdavidb kf:  I'm with you.  That's such a Spectacularly Bad Idea....
14:50 kf are they no privacy laws that prevent that?
14:50 they = there
14:51 jdavidb No, unfortunately.  Not for passwords, anyway.
14:51 kf I think our data protection officer would say thats not acceptible
14:53 jdavidb I pitched a fit about it, but that's what they wanted.  Fortunately, probably, gmcharlt is gonna throw that one in the oubliette.
14:53 (So we'll have to maintain it.  But I'm okay with that.)
14:54 * owen submits a patch to move the clear screen button: http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/b[…]hment.cgi?id=1090
14:59 kf owen: looks nice now :)
15:08 * owen is picky that way
15:11 ecorrado jdavidb: East Brunswick as in East Brunswick, NJ?
15:11 jdavidb ecorrado:  Yup.  That's them.  They've apparently been Horizon users a long, long time, and are pretty set in their ways.
15:12 Knowing that we're not ever gonna get Koha to be Just Like Horizon, we've managed to give them some things that made them a bit more comfortable.
15:12 ecorrado jdavidb: I gre up in the next town over and worked in a nearby library for a bit. I am aware of them :-).
15:13 I heard they were lookign at Koha a while back... glad to see they went that way.
15:13 jdavidb They're good folks, really, and want the best for their patrons.  I was astonished at how much holds traffic they have; they promoted use of holds a while back, and it caught on.
15:14 5000-ish circs a day, about 700 or so of which are holds fulfillment.  It's amazing.
15:14 ecorrado jdavidb: I haven't been there for a while, but they were always recognized by the public as the best librry in the area.
15:15 I'm not surprised about the holds... my mom used to get them to hold the latest Steven King books before they came out and would be way down on the list.
15:16 jdavidb On some new popular stuff, they're getting 20 and 30 copies, and running 150+ holds in the queue.
15:18 The patrons are pretty sophisticated, too...they get twitchy about any oddities on that holds queue.
15:19 gmcharlt joined #koha
15:20 jdavidb Hi, gmcharlt!
15:20 gmcharlt hi jdavidb
15:20 schuster gmcharlt - heya!  we've been talking about you - ears burning?
15:20 (kidding sorta)
15:20 gmcharlt heh
15:24 so, any juicy gossip about me that I should know about? ;)
15:25 schuster I hear you are implementing RDA for 3.2 - :0
15:25 gmcharlt :)
15:25 jdavidb No one has yet proven that you're Michael Jackson's love child, gmcharlt, but the jury is still out on that.  :P   And yeah, there's the RDA thing.
15:25 kf hi gmcharlt
15:26 schuster Are sounds still part of 3.2 circ?
15:26 kf question: we want to try to send our first patch tomorrow - changes in xslt for detail and results to display ltr/rtl languages in 880 fields
15:26 gmcharlt kf++
15:26 kf I saw that jane wagner send a patch on this file wich isnt in git yet
15:27 gmcharlt schuster: yes, there are a couple patches floating around that will be included
15:27 kf will this be a problem? I think we will write a bug report tomorrow - but we have a little time problem, because I will be on vacation from wednesday to wednesday
15:29 so we want to send it tomorrow (I hope I will be able to generate a patch file with git on my laptop...)
15:34 gmcharlt: should we integrate janes changes in our file, although its not in git yet? she made xslt follow sysprefs in her patch

16:19 paul_p lol
16:19 I realize my mail may let you think i'm upset. Just to be clear : that's not the case ! ;-)
16:20 gmcharlt paul_p: no, it's fine
16:40 chris_n gmcharlt: on a fresh install of 3.2 my browser says "production mode - trapped fatal error" and the logs say nothing... :-(
16:40 any thoughts?
16:41 hold on
16:41 never mind...

16:43 anyone know what weirdness this is?
16:45 3.0 works fine, 3.2 croaks with the above mentioned error
16:48 SelfishMan Not certain but I'm betting an address/IP is missing from the config
16:50 chris_n actually the config is correct
16:55 schuster Anybody else notice that when an item is checked in after a transfer is returned current location is not updating?
16:55 Coming back to "homebranch".

17:01 chris_n gmcharlt: should koha-conf.xml contain tags for memcached_servers and memcached_namespace if memcached option is not selected during install?
17:01 SelfishMan: it appears you are correct
17:02 SelfishMan The memcached stuff shouldn't matter

17:28 gmcharlt chris_n: doesn't matter to me, really, although keeping them in there so that sysadmin knows that the option exists woudln't hurt
17:29 chris_n gmcharlt: any thoughts on the Socket::pack_sockaddr_in weirdness I mention above?
17:29 3.0 works fine... 3.2 blows chunks
17:30 with the same config
17:30 gmcharlt chris_n: check Michael's patch pushed yesterday
17:30 does that help
17:30 ?
17:30 * chris_n looks
17:39 Sharon I just realized I asked a question in #kohakansas, thinking I was in here...no wonder I didn't get an answer!
17:40 Does the syspref TransfersMaxDaysWarning count business days or calendar days?

19:04 baseballfreak47 So im installing Koha on this computer with ubuntu using this site: http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gi[…]d9d47;hb=HEAD#l81 I have installed everything up to line 72 where it says, "Using the ubuntu.packages file included in the Koha source tree,    73 run the following:
19:04 $ sudo dpkg --set-selections < install_misc/ubuntu.packages
19:05 i tried that and it didnt work any suggestions?
19:06 brb
19:06 pianohacker What error did it give?
19:07 chris_n: around?

19:09 chris_n here
19:10 pianohacker Does your school do any print management? Trying to find an open-source print management tool without success
19:10 chris_n we do
19:10 pianohacker What do you use?
19:11 chris_n currently I'm on a proprietary package, but I'm in the process of moving to an FOSS package... hold on
19:11 pianohacker Okay. Thanks
19:16 chris_n pianohacker: take a look at http://www.pykota.com/
19:16 that is the comes the closest to matching what we currently run
19:17 brendan does libki do any print management?
19:17 that kyle hall package for computer management IRC
19:20 sekjal hey, brendan.  how was your flight?
19:21 chris ohh i like this
19:21 F.Démians : “Son inclusivité. La vraie richesse de Koha, c’est la communauté mondiale de ses utilisateurs et de ses développeurs, son ouverture à toute contribution, l’esprit de coopération qui anime ses membres”
19:21 which google translate tells me is roughly
19:21 What do you think are the main strengths of Koha?
19:21 pianohacker pykota looks very, very nice.
19:21 brendan flight was bumpy --
19:22 chris F. Demians: "His inclusiveness. La vraie richesse de Koha, c'est la communauté mondiale de ses utilisateurs et de ses développeurs, son ouverture à toute contribution, l'esprit de coopération qui anime ses membres” The real wealth of Koha is the world community of its users and its developers, open to any contribution the cooperative spirit that animates its members "
19:22 ohh remind not to paste from google translate again
19:23 chris_n heh
19:23 pianohacker We have been animated by spirits? Ghost-powered development for the win
19:23 chris i think it means vodka
19:23 :)
19:23 chris_n pianohacker: I'm looking forward to getting it running here and getting off of the blackhole of closed source in that area as well
19:23 sekjal brendan: sorry to hear that.  chris helped me get the circulation state script beaten into submission, and now its just looking at odd cases and trying to fix them
19:24 chris ill have to get someone to translate it better, but i like the quote
19:24 * chris_n feels very animated atm
19:24 chris :)
19:25 pianohacker Maybe someday in the far off future when I have some free time (ha), I can integrate powerline with pykota
19:25 chris ok im off to work back in 50 mins
19:25 pianohacker bye
19:25 chris pianohacker: make it your dissertation :)
19:26 pianohacker ooh
19:26 brendan chris++
19:26 pianohacker sounds like a plan
19:26 pianohacker Very much

20:14 kf has someone time to answer a newbie git question? I managed to produce a patch :) but it was just a test - how can I get back now?
20:14 chris get back from where? :)
20:14 * kf searching for words
20:14 kf to the state where I can produce this patch with updated files tomorrow at work?
20:14 chris ahhh
20:15 kf does not help that its late and my internet was down for hours ...
20:15 chris so you have a commit that you don't want anymore?
20:15 kf I think so
20:16 chris did you make it on a branch, or did you make it on master?
20:16 kf good question
20:16 git branch tells me im on mywork
20:16 chris all good then
20:17 you can just go back to master, make a new branch, make your changes there
20:17 kf ah ok
20:17 but I loose my koha install from mywork branch this way?
20:17 chris or you can revert the commit
20:18 and you will be back where you were before
20:18 kf is there an easy way to do this?
20:22 jwagner joined #koha
20:26 chris_n2-away kf: 'git reset --soft HEAD' will take you back one commit, but not remove the work of your commit
20:26 chris yeah, thats probably the nicest way, thanks chris_n
20:27 chris_n2-away 'git reset --hard HEAD' will take you back and remove your work as well
20:27 chris_n2-away is now known as chris_n2
20:27 kf thx, will try that!
20:28 hm should the changed files change back?
20:29 or how do I know it worked?

20:31 nengard ahh
20:31 okay
20:32 kf still shows
20:33 hm
20:34 gmcharlt kf: is your commit at the top?  if so
20:34 git reset --hard HEAD^
20:34 will get rid of it
20:34 note the trailing ^
20:35 kf I think it worked

20:38 sekjal Did Koha 3.0.2 or 3.0.3 limit the number of rows that can be exported from a Guided Report?  After I upgraded, I'm getting capped at 10,000
20:39 chris yep
20:39 i have a fix for that half done
20:39 that will respect the limit you specify in your sql
20:40 (if no limit is set it will still cap at 9999)
20:40 just as a backstop
20:40 or a catcher as you guys say :)
20:41 basically there is a bug in the code
20:41 http://koha.pastebin.com/m6f98023f
20:42 is the broken bit
20:42 (that second regex)
20:43 should be something more like
20:43 $sql =~ s/\bLIMIT\b\s*(\d+)\,*(\s*\d+)?\s*/ /ig;
20:43 kf chris chris_n gmcharlt: thx for the help! hope I can redo the patch tomorrow with the newer files.
20:44 chris yay kf :)
20:44 sekjal ah
20:45 kf not my work sadly, I will just help to create the patch file.
20:45 chris but that regexp isn't quite right either (it fails if you dont specify an offset and a limit)
20:45 i hope to have some time today to fix it up and send a patch
20:45 then you can do SELECT * FROM borrowers LIMIT 10000000000 if you so wish :)
20:46 kf good night everybody!
20:47 chris night kf
20:47 pianohacker Good night
20:48 kf left #koha
20:48 sekjal cool, thanks chris.  my boss needs a certain report to load into our temporary course reserves solution, so I've got to figure out how to get it to him soon
20:50 schuster I was able to find that bit of code and adjust the number 35000 until the patch comes through.
20:50 chris yep thats a quick temp fix
20:50 find the line that goes
20:51 $limit  = 9999 unless $limit;
20:51 in C4/Reports/Guided.pm
20:51 and change that to some high number
20:51 schuster :)
20:51 jwagner chris, might it be a good idea to set a syspref for limit so that sites can specify their own & change as needed?
20:52 schuster Cook - go for it jwagner! ;)
20:52 chris that would work too, but if it respects the limit you specify on your query
20:52 that would be better
20:52 at the moment if you only want 10 .. you get 9999
20:53 and if you change the syspref
20:53 the person next to you who wants 700, now gets 10
20:53 jwagner I'm thinking of people who may not know enough SQL to know how to specify a limit.  Syspref could be a fallback -- if there's a limit in the report SQL, use it, otherwise use syspref
20:54 schuster I'm one of those who knows just enough to be dangerous!
20:55 Didn't know Limit existed until I ran a report and read chris' comment.
20:55 chris thats what the limit catchall is for, so ppl dont do select * from biblio,items,borrowers;
20:55 and asplode
20:56 sekjal well that fixes my problem for today
21:01 schuster yippie! I helped someone!
21:04 chris :-)
21:04 its a good feeling eh

21:46 |Lupin| yeah !

21:58 CGI426 Lee
21:58 chris ahh heya :)
21:58 CGI426 smile
21:59 so I really have a question for anyone
21:59 pianohacker Okay
22:00 CGI426 working on a digital location
22:00 virtual
22:00 setting up a second library location in Koha
22:00 pianohacker As in a library/branch, or a shelving location?
22:01 CGI426 can i change the location in admin to something other than stacks?
22:01 since no digital object will be located in stacks
22:01 pianohacker Usually shelving locations are set during cataloging
22:01 CGI426 stacks is the shelving location
22:01 owen left #koha
22:02 CGI426 for our regular location
22:02 pianohacker You set them up under Admin -> Authorized Values, then choose them when you catalog an item
22:02 CGI426 writing this down...
22:03 thanks
22:03 pianohacker Usually, though, if you're dealing with two entirely different kinds of items
22:03 You give them different item types
22:04 CGI426 the records are coming from OCLC
22:04 we edit them with dublin core to reflect a digital object linked to a url
22:05 pianohacker Okay
22:05 You can still set itemtypes on the individual items, rather than at the bib record level
22:05 CGI426 okay
22:06 will that increase discoverability?
22:06 pianohacker It's easier to search for different item types, yes

22:07 gmcharlt left #koha
22:08 pianohacker No problem
22:08 hdl_laptop chris : I have a question about translation workflow, it seems that French po file is not the one that is now on pootle
22:09 chris oh?
22:09 hdl_laptop Is there something to do to check that so that it won't happen again ?
22:09 chris i only push to 3.0.x from pootle
22:10 basically if no one else pushes .po files then it wont happen
22:10 ie, things should go into pootle, then into git .. not into git first
22:11 hdl_laptop yes.
22:12 But the fact is that at the moment, i think that french translation is more up to date in pootle than on 3.0.x branch
22:14 At least, it is what I saw on our branch.
22:14 By the way, i have pushed a BIG couple of patches on koha-maintenance/reconciliation.
22:14 You can update.
22:14 chris ta
22:15 hdl_laptop I donot think strings will change a lot.
22:15 chris hmm i just pushed to git recently
22:15 ill do another push from pootle that will update what is in 3.0.x
22:15 hdl_laptop I have taken that.
22:15 chris it is much safer if we dont both try to push .po files
22:16 hdl_laptop I saw you pushed two days ago.
22:16 chris because we will clash with each other
22:16 hdl_laptop now, I never push po files.
22:16 chris cool
22:16 i will do a new push
22:16 2 secs
22:16 hdl_laptop unless it comes from 3.0.x
22:17 pie left #koha

22:25 hdl_laptop: did you see this too http://translate.koha.org/fr/opac3_1/
22:25 hdl_laptop chris : thanks but staff need update too.
22:26 chris not according to git it doesnt
22:27 10:23 ~/git/koha-gitosis (3.0.x)$ diff misc/translator/po/fr-FR-i​-staff-t-prog-v-3000000.po  /var/lib/pootle/intranet3_0/fr/f​r-FR-i-staff-t-prog-v-3000000.po
22:27 10:27 ~/git/koha-gitosis (3.0.x)$
22:27 10:27 ~/git/koha-gitosis (3.0.x)$ git diff
22:27 10:27 ~/git/koha-gitosis (3.0.x)$
22:27 so whats in my git is the same as what is pootle and what is pushed up
22:29 * chris is confused
22:33 hdl_laptop mmmm... Maybe a little lack on one of our local branch

22:45 brendan well hdl_laptop  so late ?
22:45 hdl_laptop I am quite accustomed to that ;)
22:45 Have to update some translation
22:45 brendan :)
22:48 hdl_laptop The plan about feature and topic branches seems really HEAVY work on bugfixes.
22:49 gmcharlt hdl_laptop: yep - goal is a solid release, not a buggy one :)
22:49 hdl_laptop But I agree it also is the only "sane" way to do.
22:50 ecorrado is now known as edc_away
22:50 hdl_laptop gmcharlt: We may have one french Biblibrarian "hackfest" in the next few weeks.
22:50 gmcharlt hdl_laptop: cool
22:51 hdl_laptop Hopefully we can use that in that purpose.
22:51 gmcharlt: I also think that some features could quite easily be generalised :
22:51 extended_attributes
22:51 Matcher
22:52 any thoughts about that ?
22:53 (apart from well, let's first integrate those features wherever possible 1st, which would be also a reasonable opinion maybe the only one to have atm).
23:02 gmcharlt Matcher & extended_attributes, sure, but priority should be bugfixing
23:02 chris *nod*
23:04 brendan bugfixing++
23:04 err bugfixing--
23:04 hdl_laptop bugfixing++
23:04 gmcharlt ?
23:04 bugfixing++
23:04 brendan just kidding
23:04 :)
23:05 hdl_laptop bug-- fixing++
23:05 pianohacker @karma bugfixing
23:05 munin pianohacker: Karma for "bugfixing" has been increased 3 times and decreased 1 time for a total karma of 2.
23:05 hdl_laptop I utterly agree on that.
23:11 gmcharlt: about the patches owen sends which load some jquery code into database, I see there an obvious problem for translation and internationalization.
23:12 Is that some issue you are considering ?
23:21 gmcharlt: I have pushed some patches from HEAD which could be fixing some issues and some of our bug fixes too onto reconciliation
23:40 gmcharlt hdl_laptop: re jquery in DB - yes, there is a potential translation problem
23:40 hdl_laptop: noted re the other patches
23:41 hdl_laptop chris : az is for azerbaidjan code I gues
23:41 s
23:42 chris that was my guess too
23:42 hdl_laptop gmcharlt: I thought some of those translation problems could be avoided by a WebServices architecture.
23:43 But I have to work on xslt and columns.def translation
23:48 gmcharlt: chris : I have seen OPAC and Summary and HTML as Object Identifier for yaz. I think It could be a good way to take things out of Template Code if we would be able to use those IDs in order to get information.... For 4.0 :P
23:49 jdavidb left #koha
23:49 chris not sure i understand you
23:49 gmcharlt 4.never :) the Z39.50 definitions are not a good basis IMO
23:49 in any event, something to argue about later ;)
23:49 hdl_laptop yes
23:51 gmcharlt: but it still could be a good canvas in order to design output formats : Summary, detail, HTML, ...
23:52 jwagner left #koha
23:52 hdl_laptop rather than copy/paste

23:53 and with that, im going to lunch
23:54 hdl_laptop bon apetit.
23:54 gmcharlt: what would be the best base in your opinion ?
23:54 ccl ? CQL ?
23:54 WTFL ?
23:57 gmcharlt lol
23:57 honestly, I think simply enumerating and clearly definiing the current structure would be enough
23:59 hdl_laptop mmmm....
