02:24 rangi heya druthb
02:24 and wizzyrea
02:24 wahanui wizzyrea is a wonderful mother, colleague, and friend. or a koha poet
02:24 rangi how was dinner druthb ?
02:24 druthb hi! :)
02:24 yummy.  I fear that Brooke is conspiring with *someone* to get me out of the house more.
02:25 If I find out who it is, I shall either kiss them, or hand them my over-full to-do list and say "here, then, you take care of this stuff," depending...
02:25 rangi hehe
02:26 * druthb has a list of suspects.
02:26 rangi its probably wizzyrea
02:26 druthb my favorite Kansan is, in fact on the list of suspects.
02:26 * wizzyrea looks innocent
02:27 wizzyrea actually I really can't take credit for that
02:27 ^.^ though I"m ecstatic that you're getting out
02:28 druthb I did put on the dress I wore to KUDOS--the short one, from Monday.  It's a swelterin' hot day here in Sodom-on-Potomac, so I decided it was time to show off some leg.
02:28 wizzyrea :D that was a cute dress
02:29 druthb I still wish there was photographic evidence from my presentation.
02:29 wizzyrea I was too busy tweeting to take pictures :(
02:29 druthb So I gathered, from the *swarm* when I got back to my seat.
02:30 (and you should see the skirt I wore to fly home with on wednesday...  brown, tweedy, and marginally shorter than that dress.  I was feeling my oats on that trip, for sure.)
02:30 rangi http://soundcloud.com/mustard-[…]dont-stop-mustard  <-- still digging this
02:30 druthb: no photos at all?
02:30 i saw some of the drinks
02:31 druthb there were a few taking of the drinks, but that's all I know of.
02:31 rangi stink one
02:31 druthb I wanted to get a pic of me and my new do, but other than the drinks pic, that's it.
02:31 rangi bout 40 days
02:31 and ill be there in person
02:31 druthb yah, but I won't be at ala.  :/
02:32 rangi awww man
02:32 druthb yah, loox like LarryB and I will be sitting out.
02:32 rangi (you ever seen dora the explorer?)
02:32 druthb never watched it.
02:32 * wizzyrea hads
02:32 wizzyrea has*
02:32 rangi that aww man was brought to you in the voice of swiper

02:33 druthb @seen Brooke
02:33 huginn druthb: Brooke was last seen in #koha 5 hours, 23 minutes, and 36 seconds ago: <Brooke> 0/
02:33 druthb lol...that's cute, rangi.
02:34 rangi it was the first 10334141848485638256197508655735928659686 times
02:34 druthb I figured for sure that Brooke would have come by to see what I told wahanui about her.  I told her I'd been conspiring with the bot.
02:34 wizzyrea brooke?
02:34 wahanui hmmm... brooke is sweet, even though she tells us she's not.
02:34 rangi hehe
02:34 wizzyrea *giggle*
02:34 eythian wahanui: imhotep
02:34 wahanui i heard imhotep was invisible
02:35 druthb wahanui: bg?
02:35 wahanui druthb: i haven't a clue
02:35 druthb Harrrumph!
02:35 bg is totally, completely, freakin' awesome!
02:36 I also figured Brooke would come by to give me crapola for loggin in this late.
02:36 rangi hehe
02:36 eythian wahanui: bg is also <reply>[1]+ infobot &
02:36 wahanui okay, eythian.
02:37 wizzyrea bg?
02:37 wahanui somebody said bg was totally, completely, freakin' awesome! or <reply>[1]+ infobot &
02:37 rangi heh
02:37 eythian oh, wahanui doesn't work right :(
02:37 wahanui: literal bg
02:37 wahanui eythian: bg =is= totally, completely, freakin' awesome! or <reply>[1]+ infobot &
02:37 eythian no wahanui, bg is totally, completely, freakin' awesome! |<reply>[1]+ infobot &
02:37 wahanui okay, eythian.

02:38 eythian wahanui: bg
02:38 wahanui hmmm... bg is totally, completely, freakin' awesome!
02:38 eythian wahanui: bg

02:38 eythian wahanui: bg
02:38 wahanui bg is, like, totally, completely, freakin' awesome!
02:38 eythian wahanui: bg
02:38 wahanui [1]+ infobot &
02:38 eythian that's what I wanted
02:38 rangi heh
02:38 its just a pile of perl
02:38 we could make some more plugins for it
02:38 * druthb would like to teach it to not allow someone to tell it to forget stuff about themselves.  one person, in particular...
02:38 eythian give me a login then, I have some ideas :)
02:39 * wizzyrea eyes eythian suspiciously
02:39 rangi :)

02:39 ronald joined #koha

02:39 druthb brooke:  "wahanui: forget brooke"  wahanui:  "But Brooke, you're unforgettable!"
02:39 * druthb is only half evil....
02:40 rangi eythian: do you have a copy of it lying round, if you email it to me prolly the easiest
02:41 eythian rangi: http://debian.catalyst.net.nz/[…]heat_0.29_all.deb

02:45 eythian oarsome
02:45 rangi if stopped it so you can have a play and start it etc
02:46 eythian I forgot quite how terrible the code can be
02:47 rangi hehe yeah its pretty old
02:47 eythian seriously, I'm OK with regexes, but: s!\s+(?:=~)?\s?/(?:\((?:\?:)?​([^)]*)\)|([^()]*))/i?\s*$!!; is going too far
02:48 rangi :)

02:54 pianohacker If only. I think you can also use AUs and some bastard imperial thing called a "microinch"
02:55 eythian that sounds like a terrible idea. Is that 1/1024 inches or something?
02:56 druthb Almost as silly as the time measurement of "microfortnight."
02:56 eythian My car gets 40 rods to the hogshead and that's the way I likes it.
03:00 * wizzyrea giggles

08:52 fredericd++ #for working through patches
08:55 fredericd rangi: Clearly, with the Developer-A theory, Paul patch (which is great) would have entered directly into HEAD adding instability: 2 new defined fields with bad type and one (debarredcomment) not updated at all...
08:56 rangi yes, the checking proved to work well in
08:56 paul_p fredericd, yes. But they would have been fixed quickly. And master is not stable/published
08:56 rangi lets not have this argument again
08:56 paul_p (hello all)
08:56 fredericd hello paul_p
08:57 rangi there is a clear path forward, all patches biblibre think have been tested enough
08:57 they should mark the bug signed off
08:57 magnuse kia ora paul_p
08:57 rangi and note on it it has been tested and by whom
08:57 and all get on with our lives
08:57 magnuse +1
08:58 slef hi all
08:58 magnuse i just read through the discussion on the list, and that seems to be the way forward
08:59 kia ora slef
08:59 slef I've not read list mail in about a day (having some local problems, which some of you know about). Do I still need to put the boot in? ;-)
08:59 rangi i dont think so, i think it came to a good compromise, of course i might be wrong
08:59 magnuse sounds to me like an agreement has been reached
09:02 slef ok, cool
09:08 rangi 115 .. still going down
09:08 magnuse yay
09:10 kf yay :)
09:10 fredericd++
09:10 slef patch temperature is still measured in F not C
09:10 kf lol
09:10 slef have you all seen the debian weather report?
09:11 rangi nope
09:11 kf nope :)
09:11 slef I'll find it
09:11 once firefox stops being a hog
09:11 well, iceweasel but anyway
09:11 it's firefox when it misbehaves
09:12 magnuse http://edos.debian.net/weather/ ?
09:12 slef that's it
09:12 just got there
09:13 kf cool :)
09:13 slef might be fun to put a koha weather report on the website, based on some stats from bugs, git, list and wiki
09:14 rangi thats like jenkins
09:14 slef but I'm not going to do that soon
09:14 rangi we could do jenkins plus other stuff
09:14 slef actually, yeah, jenkins probably gives much of the info
09:14 rangi http://jenkins.koha-community.org/
09:14 i need to set up builds for 3.4.x
09:14 i should do that now
09:14 while i remember
09:15 slef but the patch statuses/numbers from bugs are probably a nice measure of storminess
09:15 druthb joined #koha

09:16 druthb @ssen Brooke
09:16 huginn druthb: I've exhausted my database of quotes
09:16 druthb whaaaatt..?
09:16 slef also, can you link just the weather image?
09:16 @seen Brooke
09:16 huginn slef: Brooke was last seen in #koha 12 hours, 7 minutes, and 3 seconds ago: <Brooke> 0/
09:16 magnuse slef: it's related to passing tests, i think?
09:17 druthb helps if I could spell.  thanks, slef.
09:17 slef elarn ot ytpe?
09:17 * druthb is losing her marbles, but hasn't noticed yet.

09:19 jenkins_koha rangi: job Koha_3.4.x build scheduled with a quiet period of 5 seconds
09:22 slef I can find how to get jenkins_koha connected to traffic lights and all sorts of other hardware, but not a simple img tag.
09:23 jenkins_koha Starting build 1 for job Koha_3.4.x
09:23 slef confluence, where wiki docs go to die
09:25 this is very irritating. It should not be hard to find this.

10:05 mib_wkjk7f hi there
10:05 wahanui hey, mib_wkjk7f
10:06 mib_wkjk7f i really need to register on the IRC because I've already come here several times :)
10:07 i need some help... it's possible to block renewals in the Staff Client to books that are overdue?
10:09 i know that is possible in the OPAC with OPACFineNoRenewals, but i can't block in the Staff Client
10:11 mib_wkjk7f left #koha
10:11 mib_3jr58x joined #koha
10:11 mib_3jr58x my firefox crashed :/
10:12 anyone can help me with the renewal problema?
10:12 rangi cant you just tell the librarians not to do it?
10:13 kf mib_3jr58x: I fear you can't do that
10:13 rangi: it might be a problem if you use self checkouts - so a switch might be something people want
10:14 mib_3jr58x that's a problem because some librarian can "help" some patrons...
10:14 kf but I agree, without self checkouts tell the librarians :)
10:14 or use jquery tricks
10:14 perhaps you could construct somthing with jquery, so that an item marked overdue offers no option for renewal
10:14 mib_3jr58x i'll try it...
10:15 thanks guys :)

12:21 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6291 normal, PATCH-Sent, ---, oleonard, ASSIGNED , Cart printing truncated in Firefox
12:21 oleonard Did you test in the OPAC or staff client?
12:22 fredericd OPAC
12:22 oleonard Hmm.... I was hoping you would say staff client, because my patch didn't include a fix for that :|
12:23 fredericd What version of FF do you use?
12:24 oleonard I've tested it on 3.6.17 on Windows
12:24 fredericd I've tested with FF 3.5 Linux
12:24 oleonard I wonder if the older version of the stylesheet might have gotten cached?
12:25 * oleonard is testing now in Ubuntu
12:25 fredericd Not cached by the web browser, i've cleared it, but there may be some Apache caching...
12:26 oleonard Hm, Ubuntu upgraded Firefox to 4 for me, so no luck there
12:29 fredericd and no Apache caching. When accessing directly print.css, I can see your modifications
12:29 and the bug is still here with FF 3.5.16 Linux
12:30 oleonard Okay, so no easy fix for me. Thanks for checking.
12:32 fredericd Standard Linux box (Ubuntu) are all upgrading automatically FF to 4.0. So this bug will vanished... Your patch must solve it for FF Windows, but I can't confirm it

13:09 oleonard A fun conference sekjal ?
13:10 sekjal ACRL New England's Annual conference, in beautiful Worcester, MA
13:10 I'm presenting with one of our partner libraries
13:14 can anyone here speak to exactly what the problem is in bug 5995?  How do I test to confirm that it's fixed?

13:17 druthb left #koha
13:17 oleonard Sounds like the same problem rangi had sekjal
13:18 sekjal my understanding is that ANY user could login to the staff client with their cardnumber, and a) get in and b) get superlibrarian privileges
13:19 but I'd like to confirm that's the problem before I test against it
13:19 (oh, right, and I need a CAS server)
13:23 druthb joined #koha
13:28 indradg joined #koha
13:37 hdl sekjal: I think it was the same problem.
13:38 sekjal hdl:  so currently anyone can log into a Koha staff client as a superlibrarian if a) it authenticates against CAS and b) they use their cardnumber?
13:42 wizzyrea oof
13:42 * wizzyrea just sees a frustrated koha user on facebook
13:43 oleonard Koha enthusiasts away!
13:43 * oleonard jumps in the Kohamobile
13:47 sekjal I was thinking of buying a bus from the UMass vehicle surplus auction, and painting it with the Koha logo
13:47 then touring the country
13:48 wizzyrea :D
13:48 * wizzyrea would get on that bus
13:49 sekjal I'd have to rip out the seats and put in couches and an (open) bar
13:49 lots of big screen TVs with the code streams
13:49 3G/4G internet....
13:49 wizzyrea *nod* because the very first time a new linux user tries to install Koha, they often need booze.
13:49 * druthb would caravan with you, sekjal, and provide the home-cooked chow.

13:50 wizzyrea haha
13:50 oleonard Manacles attached to the chair legs...
13:50 wizzyrea
13:50 i'm suspecting that owen is bringing the whips
13:51 hdl sekjal: how to say... yes.
13:51 wizzyrea hi hdl :)
13:55 magnuse have fun, #koha!
13:55 magnuse is now known as magnus_away
13:58 hdl hi wizzyrea.
13:58 wizzyrea how is today treating you?
13:58 hdl This is quite an unseen "feture...
13:58 This is quite an unseen "feature"...
13:58 and even unwanted.
13:59 This is the problem with all the code dealing with authentication.
13:59 It is so overcomplicated because it tries to do many things at once.
14:00 a) authentication and b) identication
14:00 wizzyrea ^ is a problem in many applications that require a login
14:01 hdl Using Plack::Middleware::Authen::Basic would allow us more flexibility and we would contribute to a wider project.
14:01 sekjal hdl:  so, is my description of the problem for bug 5995 correct?
14:01 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=5995 blocker, PATCH-Sent, ---, matthias.meusburger, ASSIGNED , Glitch with checkauth
14:01 hdl Then the identication would be coped in some Modules.
14:05 sekjal: i think that it was for all the users in database, not only with CAS users.
14:06 wizzyrea: may is quite nice... Weather is good.
14:06 wizzyrea: what about you ?
14:07 wizzyrea today is shaping up to be lovely so far: fig scones for breakfast, positive news, it's not 33C today (only 13C, actually, quite a change from Monday/Tuesday)
14:08 oleonard @wunder 45701
14:08 huginn` oleonard: The current temperature in Ohio University, Athens, Ohio is 21.7�C (10:10 AM EDT on May 13, 2011). Conditions: Scattered Clouds. Humidity: 75%. Dew Point: 17.0�C. Pressure: 29.63 in 1003.3 hPa (Steady).
14:08 sekjal hdl:  wait, so this is a universal problem, not a CAS-only problem?
14:10 hdl sekjal: ermmmm ->[]
14:10 yes.
14:10 ->[] ->[]
14:12 sekjal: that would require a test case.
14:12 I agree.
14:13 sekjal okay, I just logged into my test server with a completely non-privileged user (patron), and was able to edit system preferences
14:13 !!!!!
14:13 wizzyrea :O
14:14 oleonard Really sekjal? I tested that myself and couldn't do that
14:14 * oleonard will try again
14:14 sekjal with username/password => fail
14:14 with cardnumber/password => WAY too much access
14:15 wizzyrea ooof
14:15 * wizzyrea tries too
14:16 * oleonard confirms
14:16 oleonard But if your username is your cardnumber you can't log in (which is why I couldn't reproduce it)
14:17 wizzyrea :O
14:17 * wizzyrea confirms as well
14:17 oleonard We seem to be having some egg on our faces regarding authentication lately.
14:18 sekjal patch for 5995 fixes it
14:18 oleonard ...after that default password thing a couple weeks ago.
14:19 hdl sekjal: thanks.
14:19 oleonard So it's *not* the case only if the library has a CAS server
14:20 hdl No.
14:21 wizzyrea hm
14:21 i applied the patch
14:22 it still lets me in
14:22 with greatly reduced privileges
14:22 let me double check his perms
14:22 but this is what it looks like
14:22 http://screencast.com/t/VjRml23QS1wA
14:23 ok yea, that's right
14:23 * wizzyrea fixes the perms on that user and tries again
14:23 hdl mmm you have perms
14:23 wizzyrea *nod*
14:24 trying again
14:24 win! http://screencast.com/t/BE6wHyqKcni
14:25 oleonard One of our YUI dependencies has gone missing. http://yui.yahooapis.com/2.5.1[…]datasource-min.js
14:26 No idea what we use that for.
14:27 Docs say it's used for AutoComplete, but autocomplete is still working for me.
14:28 * oleonard wonders if datasource-min.js disappeared because of this? http://yuilibrary.com/support/2.8.2/
14:29 oleonard ...but that says "YUI 2 Flash component infrastructure"
14:29 Flash--
14:29 wizzyrea does anybody have a good test db they'd be willing to send me?
14:31 hdl wizzyrea: on our git : data.git could be a good test db...
14:31 wizzyrea ooh!
14:31 hdl++
14:32 hdl But it is not with many many data
14:32 wizzyrea nah, what I have now has many many data
14:32 and I want to downsize :)
14:33 sekjal updating the bug report with detailed problem description and testing results
14:33 hdl might be unimarc. can't remember.
14:33 wizzyrea ooo, hdl! we ought to give your public data repo the attention it deserves.
14:34 hdl patches welcome on dev_patches at biblibre dot com
14:34 slef oops I forgot that upgrading that server would boot me out :)
14:34 hi again everyone!
14:35 wizzyrea very cool. I'm sort of remembering we had a wiki page for public data repos
14:35 or we talked about it?
14:35 anyway, if we don't, I'll create one
14:35 slef I think we do and I know where my link is :)
14:35 wizzyrea you must share!
14:35 slef http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]_Git_Repositories
14:35 hdl wizzyrea: there is one
14:36 wizzyrea hm, I was thinking of one specifically for test data
14:36 slef they should be linked from that page
14:36 hdl you could add on that page.
14:36 wimommy joined #koha
14:36 slef you pudate one, I'll do that?
14:36 http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]_sample_MARC_data
14:37 maybe that's the other one?
14:37 wizzyrea I was thinking of a library of places you could get test data with patrons + bibs
14:37 what would be REALLY cool
14:37 slef these all need "See Also"s
14:38 wizzyrea would be test datasets with certain library configs
14:38 or preference sets that could be imported
14:38 independent branches
14:38 or no
14:38 slef there's some sample data in the release (or used to be)
14:38 wimommy left #koha
14:38 wizzyrea are there bibs in there?
14:39 my brain ran away from me for a minute, thinking about preference sets
14:39 slef argh I always click the bloody gitstats link
14:39 * oleonard too
14:39 * wizzyrea too!
14:39 wizzyrea I thought it was just me. :P
14:40 hdl slef: metoo
14:40 slef roflmao
14:40 * wizzyrea does not click it *this time*
14:40 slef hrm, there's sample_patrons
14:40 http://git.koha-community.org/[…]92ecf37be;hb=HEAD
14:41 not bibs
14:41 wizzyrea *nod* i've used the test patrons
14:41 slef I'm only using gitweb because I've a browser opened and not our koha servers just now
14:42 wizzyrea use the tools you've got, I always say
14:42 ;)
14:42 oleonard sekjal++ # For diligent QA
14:42 wizzyrea sekjal++
14:43 sekjal hdl++ # for helping me understand the terrifying nature of the problem
14:43 wizzyrea hdl++
14:43 hdl sekjal: i often lurk here.
14:44 slef anyway I've linked from the git repo page to the free sample MARC data page - maybe someone could add hdl's link (which I can't see right now... limited scrollback) from one or the other
14:44 hdl and am quite open to discussion
14:44 slef s/from one/to one
14:44 reason I came in: I've finally got write access to the SIP 3.0 development discussions!
14:44 so any comments about SIP 3.0, let me have them and I'll feed them back
14:45 hdl git://git.biblibre.com/data.git
14:45 slef I'll also try to ask you about what happens there.  Didn't seem much point until now, because it was difficult for me to feed back
14:47 hdl slef: for openncip ?
14:47 Or which ?
14:47 wahanui i heard which was why we needed the audio prompts or fortunate
14:48 oleonard wahanui: That doesn't even make sense.
14:48 wahanui oleonard: what?
14:48 oleonard wahanui: You're stuck with it!
14:48 wahanui oleonard: what?
14:48 rhcl_away we're stuck with wahanui?
14:48 rhcl_away is now known as rhcl
14:49 slef hdl: for SIP 3.0 protocol
14:49 SIP 3.0 is to openncip what html5 is to mozilla
14:49 hdl in a NISO stuff ?
14:49 Guillaume left #koha
14:49 slef no, a 3M stuff
14:49 hdl nice.
14:49 slef NCIP is NISO, SIP is 3M
14:50 yeah, not as good as having it somewhere like OKFN but we are where we are
14:52 hdl: can you put patches_dev or some link in http://git.biblibre.com/?p=data;a=summary or shall I put it in http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]_Git_Repositories ?
14:52 dev_patches at biblibre dot com even
14:53 hdl In SIP2 problem with the dates and the authentications... and the way the information is stored. and the way that information is displayed whose responsability it is. Have some ERRIDs
14:53 slef: I will
14:54 slef hdl: tah
14:54 hdl: dates are being YYYYMMDD consistentised in 3.0 I think
14:54 hdl: and they
14:54 SteveJ joined #koha
14:55 slef hdl: and they're trying to make error codes consistent, but I can see the one for miscellaneous error being used a lot :-/
14:56 hdl slef: :(
14:56 kf ERRIDs sounds good
14:56 hdl and what about character sets ?
14:56 kf I think it's a problem what message will be shown on the self checkout
14:56 our vendor did something to make the messages from koha show nice and make sense
14:57 but a standardized set of messages would perhaps be cool?
14:57 and i may be totally wrong here :)
14:57 slef charset is UTF-8 most of the time
14:58 kf: standardised messages are in the spec, yes
14:58 trouble is, things have a bad habit of failing in new and unpredicted ways
14:59 kf was thinking about things like "too many checkouts" or "account blocked"
15:00 slef kf: I'll be working on it again on Monday. I'll look for them then.
15:00 rhcl When my tech and I were looking at adding SIP to Libki recently we ran across this code and felt it helped us understand self-checkout greatly.
15:00 https://github.com/bricestacey[…]ter/sipapi.module
15:00 slef account blocked is when they scan their card, right?
15:01 and too many checkouts on checkout and renew
15:02 anyway, mail me any things and I'll check and pass them on if needed, now that I can
15:02 kf when the borrower is banned/debarred whatever
15:03 indradg left #koha
15:03 slef yeah, but Koha should send that when the borrower tries to scan their card into the SIP terminal?
15:03 kf I have a collection of tests I normally do with the vendor, but all in German
15:03 ah yes
15:03 slef keine Probleme
15:03 kf the authenticate with or without pin and then it should say that
15:03 slef if you can share them somehow
15:04 or if you have a few which are more frequently failed, that would be more informative
15:04 brb
15:05 kf most of the failing things are koha problems
15:05 we had problems with not useful error messages but koha, returned books with holds placed on them and I think something died when you scanned in an unknown barcode
15:06 slef: email?
15:06 wahanui email is probably sent to the Koha administrator
15:06 kf wahanui: forget email
15:06 wahanui kf: I forgot email

15:37 mib_mvdr0t hi there koha community
15:38 sekjal howedy, mib_mvdr0t
15:38 mib_mvdr0t i've one big problem... during marc import koha changed the ISBN of my records
15:38 nengard joined #koha
15:39 mib_mvdr0t 0-262-53063-5 => 0262530635 (Koha)
15:39 it's this normal?
15:39 oleonard Yes
15:39 The hyphens are just for display
15:40 mib_mvdr0t but when displaying the hyphens doesn't appear
15:41 and that's a problem for the library i'm working with
15:41 wizzyrea can I ask what their reasoning is for it being a problem?
15:41 * oleonard notes that Amazon.com doesn't display ISBNs with hyphens
15:42 mib_mvdr0t I know... google books too.
15:42 wizzyrea (I suspect it's a case of "they've always looked that way and we're afraid of change")
15:42 oleonard And WorldCat
15:42 mib_mvdr0t but they insist in present the hyphens
15:43 oleonard I hope this is because everything else about Koha is so perfect they're looking for things to gripe about ;)
15:43 wizzyrea people get so mad at me when I do this, but you get much better solutions: ask them *why* it's really important
15:43 oleonard But seriously mib_mvdr0t, the isbns display that way because no one has ever asked that they display any other way
15:44 wizzyrea and you can steal a line from druthb's book: if it's about fearing change, ask them if they stop getting older. Because we all change every day and think nothing of it.
15:45 and what oleonard said: no one has ever wanted it to display with the hyphens, so it doesn't.
15:46 mib_mvdr0t i know that the isbn normally appears whitout hyphens...
15:47 i think that they are really afraid of change
15:47 :)
15:47 the isbn has a norm to present the hyphens
15:48 ?
15:48 wizzyrea what ILS are they coming from?
15:48 (I'm assuming it's a migration)
15:48 mib_mvdr0t yes it's a migration

15:51 wizzyrea mib_mvdr0t: I'm trying to think what the unknown is that they are afraid of, but it may just be that they are expecting to see them a certain way
15:52 and it's just *weird* to them
15:52 but weird is normal after a while :)
15:52 what you could do
15:52 Ropuch Eevening #koha
15:52 wizzyrea would be to tell them that what they want could be done, but it would require de
15:52 dev
15:52 and likely
15:52 by the time the dev is done, they won't care about it anymore
15:53 or if you delay the spec long enough, the wierdness that caused the desire will be normal
15:54 and to pay for something that's now normal will seem silly
15:54 (I have had this exact experience, where something that was weird to our librarians and they initially wanted fixed, after using the system for a while it didn't bother them anymore and we dropped the need for dev to "fix" it)
15:56 (I also have the experience of something that was "completely necessary" being added that ended up being detrimental)

20:45 slef ooh I just read a summary of the 3.6 RM thread
20:45 even the summary made me cross
20:46 rhcl I would guess it should work. I have a Fire V240 (Sparc) that I'm thinking of loading deb on to make a backup koha server for us.
20:46 slef where was the agreement?
20:46 wizzyrea joined #koha
20:46 slef skushner: not for over a decade :)
20:46 nengard left #koha
20:46 cait I think the agreement was about adding internal sign-offs to the patches
20:46 note in the patch who tested
20:48 skushner mmm..i'll give it a shot. i'm done with the virtual ****
20:49 rhcl yea, I did a bit of research when you were asking about it earlier and everything I read said VM on Sparc was essentially impossible.
20:49 coryj Is If I change yuipath for under Staff Client prefs, shouldn't it change for OPAC users too?
20:50 skushner um..yeah..that's why i tried to use older stuff, like ldoms, etc., but can't find for download anymore..
20:52 rhcl One think we've noticed (vaguely related perhaps) is that we have an Opteron x4150 w/ Solaris, and it occasionally loses the NFS mounts to a Seagate BlackArmor NAS (which runs Linux).
20:53 We had thought about trying to use that for our Koha backup, but now I'm leaning to just taking our v240 and putting deb on the bare metal
20:55 skushner same here..
20:57 rhcl Kinda depressing, we paid a fortune for that v240 when is was our new Sirsi Unicorn server, and now they cost $100 - $300 on eBay. Still very capable machines though if in good condition and decked out a little bit.
21:01 skushner Yeah, we paid too much too through Dynix, should've gotten the x86 would be easier..hindsight's 20/20 though

21:05 talljoy Hi all.  I'm still having install issues.  I had to reinstall Debian due to some partitioning issues (don't ask :) )  I've gotten to the point in the install where I am finding about 70 package that are not installed and Debian can't seem to find them.
21:06 I've added debian.koha-community.org/koha squeeze main    and squeeze-dev to the sources.list
21:07 wizzyrea can you do a sudo apt-get update?
21:07 rangi what version of debian did you install talljoy?
21:08 talljoy the latest version of debian.  6
21:08 I've done the update
21:08 rangi you dont want to add both of those, just one of them, for your purposes squeeze-dev is fine
21:08 wizzyrea left #koha
21:08 rangi and then after the update
21:08 do
21:08 sudo apt-get install koha-common
21:09 it should pull in all the dependencies for you
21:10 then you can get your tarball, unpack it
21:10 run perl Makefile.PL
21:10 talljoy that shows me a whole long list of depends that are not installable
21:10 rangi hmmmm
21:10 what do you have in /etc/apt/sources.list
21:10 did you install debian from cd?
21:11 talljoy okay...let me transcribe....different computer
21:11 rangi it might be trying to find the packages from the cd, not from a main debian repo
21:11 talljoy deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ squeeze-updates main contrib
21:11 deb-src  same as above
21:11 rangi only squeeze-updates?
21:12 talljoy deb http://debian.koha-community.org/koha squeeze-dev main
21:12 coryj_away left #koha
21:12 talljoy deb http://ftp.indexdata.dk/debian lenny main    and deb-src

21:12 wizzyrea lol gfdi.
21:12 talljoy should i add lenny updates?
21:13 rangi no definitely not lenny
21:13 or lenny updates
21:13 talljoy ok
21:13 rangi and you dont need that deb http://ftp.indexdata.dk/debian lenny main    and deb-src
21:13 take that out
21:14 talljoy I did install from a cd.  but have that commented out of the sources.list
21:14 SteveJ left #koha
21:14 rangi is there anything in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
21:14 wahanui Hmm.  No matches for that, rangi.
21:14 rangi somewhere you want a line
21:14 that is deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main contrib
21:15 (or similair, hostname may be different)
21:15 without that, you are only seeing the squeeze-updates not all the squeeze packages, hence why it cant find them ;)
21:16 talljoy that makes sense.  let me add a line for that
21:16 * rangi has a 2 year old climbing on him so his instructions arent as good as they could be
21:16 rangi sometimes that line is in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/base.list
21:16 but anywhere works
21:17 talljoy i added it to the /etc/apt/sources.list  file
21:17 rangi if you try an update again now
21:17 then try the install again .. fingers crossed
21:17 talljoy just did.  my speedy (ha!) machine is thinking
21:18 machine is giving me new results.  much better looking than before.  It is installing 'stuff'
21:18 rangi yay
21:18 cait :)

21:30 cait :)
21:30 rangi hmm someone did
21:30 maybe it was wizzyrea
21:31 cait perhaps I suggested it, but I think I couldn't make her do something
21:31 :)
21:31 wizzyrea i am sure that it was talked about
21:31 rangi hehe
21:31 wizzyrea like "somebody should get rangi chocolate"
21:31 indradg cait, wizzyrea, rangi the town library i'm working on has thrown up a small, but interesting patron requirement... we have a category - neo-literate... for these people, asking them for a DoB is impossible, so we have to make do with approximate age of the patron :)
21:31 wizzyrea the somebody close enough to actually do it, apparently did >.>
21:31 space_librarian++
21:32 oooo
21:32 rangi indradg: id use extended attributes
21:32 just make one that is a text box
21:32 and make DOB not compulsory
21:33 or just make up a date
21:33 cait compulsory?
21:33 ah,mandatory
21:33 indradg rangi, but what we have to do is that either of dob or age field has to filled
21:34 rangi yeah, cant do that in koha
21:34 without developement work, there is no idea of either
21:34 indradg yep
21:34 rangi a field is mandatory or not
21:34 how about just use DoB
21:34 and if you dont know
21:34 wizzyrea and approximate
21:35 rangi make them born 1/1/someyear
21:35 indradg rangi, can do that, and have an ExtendedPatronAttribute (searchable) with auth_val "age approximate"
21:36 rangi yeah
21:36 wizzyrea that seems like a not-crap workaround
21:36 ie good
21:36 indradg :)
21:37 yes, otherwise my work is nicely cut of... write it for 3.2.x and then rebase on 3.4 (for the future)
21:37 rangi 3.6
21:37 always work on master
21:37 and backport
21:37 your life will be about 7 million times easier
21:37 indradg rangi, :)
21:38 rangi and your could will be 10 million times more likely to get into koha
21:39 indradg public libraries in my home state has some crazy membership and membership dues rules... none of which can be satisfied by stock Koha
21:39 rangi (thats if it is something you want in upstream, if you just want it local, develop on a branch based off your local bit)
21:40 indradg rangi, i'll have to look upstream ultimately... the 170 libraries are just the pilot... things go well... then we roll for the next 1000 by next year... and I'm not looking forward to a local fork
21:41 wizzyrea lordie 170!
21:41 * wizzyrea gasps 1000!
21:41 * cait just gasps
21:41 wizzyrea individual installs or all together?
21:41 indradg wizzyrea, these are small libs with about 15k to 35k items
21:41 wizzyrea even so!
21:41 rangi indradg: if you develop on a branch thats based (and kept up to date with master) then upstreaming is much easier
21:41 and backport your change
21:41 s
21:41 indradg and about 500 members each
21:42 rangi that way, no pain upgrading
21:42 wizzyrea still!
21:42 cait I have 6 and they keep me busy!
21:42 rangi this is something i have learnt through experience
21:42 wizzyrea 34 here
21:42 rangi and yeah that is awesome news ;)
21:42 maybe you might like to fund robin and I to come teahc you how to build package and use puppet to upgrade them all in one go :)
21:43 * rangi fishes :)
21:43 indradg :)
21:43 SteveJ 4 here and that is about 3 more than I can handle....
21:43 indradg no funds for you and robin in official capacity at the moment... this is our make-or-break project
21:43 bg I think we've got about 400+
21:44 rangi indradg: it was worth a shot :)
21:44 bg :)
21:44 indradg rangi, :) sure
21:44 * cait suddenly feels very small :P
21:45 indradg cait, don't... the librarians at 40% of these libs have to be trained to even how to handle a mouse...
21:46 rangi indradg: i do recommend you look at the debian/build-git-snapshot
21:46 you can run that on any branch, and it will build a package from it
21:46 indradg rangi, these libs do not have connectivity... so we are going with clozezilla / usb-key based image upgrader
21:47 wizzyrea clonezilla++ just used that yesterday
21:47 rangi cool, using the packages for dev/testing/staging is helpful too
21:47 indradg with a bunch of nasty hacks to auto-customize the libs' configs - OS, apps, user profiles and Koha db
21:47 rangi *nod*
21:48 indradg rangi, will be checking that out
21:48 wizzyrea no wonder you're up so late :)
21:48 indradg wizzyrea, comes at a price though... promised the #wife a 10-day vacation with no internet connectivity after we ship
21:49 :)
21:49 wizzyrea psh, by some standards that's pretty cheap ;)
21:49 rangi indradg: feel free to pester us anytime
21:50 tis a great thing you are doing
21:50 indradg rangi, trust me I'll :)
21:53 cait we can handle it :)
21:54 indradg thanks friends :)

22:39 bg every fours hours it's a new day somewhere :)

22:40 I'll harass rangi about it
22:40 bg hmm..  pianohacker most likely it's a setting mailman somewhere..  maybe the admins of that can suggest something
