12:15 reiveune Excuse me, I'd like to try to reproduce the logo of Koha with Inkscape (with vector graphics, not bitmap). Someone could tell me what is the font used by the logo displayed on the OPAC (or two fonts used in the picture below :

12:15 thanks
12:16 oleonard joined #koha
12:22 tcohen joined #koha
12:34 reiveune Owen gave me a very good answer, thanks
12:36 oleonard I'll say it here too if anyone is interested in the answer
12:36 There are a few logo files included in the Koha source. Look in misc/interface_customization
12:36 I don't know the font, but you'll find Inkscape-compatible files there with vector versions of the logo

12:49 oleonard Z39.50 search error "1: Permanent system error: Permanent system error: Bib-1"
12:50 On my server or theirs? If theirs, why the same error from 3 different sources?
12:50 * oleonard is suspicious
12:53 jwagner oleonard, what targets?  Common ones like LC?
12:55 oleonard Ohiolink, Colorado Unified Catalog, Cuyahoga County Public Library
12:57 jwagner Nope, don't have those set up somewhere where I could test them....
12:58 * oleonard wonders if we'll ever change the spelling of IndependantBranches
12:59 jwagner I found one of my sites with a connection to Cuyahoga, and it's searching fine

13:56 oleonard I *really* want an option in Bugzilla to "expand search to closed bugs" on the search results page
13:58 In other Bugzilla news coming from my brain, I'm very glad we're putting bug numbers in commits now. It's disconcerting now to see commits without them
13:58 rhcl joined #koha
13:59 oleonard commit 16fef8ba3e18c12347f35ff24a43c20d7ee53a8c added some error handling to cataloguing's z39.50 search but not to acquisitions'
13:59 libsysguy ok so am I crazy or have there been no pushes to master since 3.6
14:00 oleonard The release manager is at KohaCon
14:00 libsysguy no excuses :p
14:01 oleonard Spoken like someone who has never been release manager :P
14:01 libsysguy haha exactly
14:13 asaurat joined #koha
14:13 oleonard I really should count how many times I go to fix a bug and find another bug
14:14 Callender joined #koha
14:35 cait reiveune: I think someone has done a svg already
14:36 reiveune: not sure who it was, perhaps mtj?
14:36 reiveune cait: thanks maybe you think at misc/interface_customization
14:36 cait oleonard: if you use ALL in front of your search term it will include closed bugs
14:37 reiveune: no, I think of something else
14:37 reiveune: I think there are no svgs in there?
14:37 oleonard Nice, thanks cait
14:38 cait you are welcome
14:39 reiveune cait: here we have a koha3-staff-client-logo.svg . I haven't open it but I think it's that I want
14:39 cait ah ok
14:39 reiveune :)
14:39 cait I have it on my screen now
14:39 have to think where I saw the other version, something in grey
14:40 reiveune me to, but I haven't install Inkscape for the moment
14:40 maybe only this app can open this file

14:41 cait oleonard: you are my hero for working on acq :)
14:42 oleonard That one was just coincidence. I was working on Bug 7147 and realized acq's z3950 search acted differently
14:42 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7147 minor, P5, ---, oleonard, ASSIGNED , Style Z39.50 search errors according to style patterns
14:42 * oleonard had no choice but to fix it!!
14:43 cait still
14:43 :)
14:44 you didn't have to work on fixing the ohter things ;)
14:45 now... someone removing this big spider from my kitchen sink would be nice
14:45 * cait shudders
14:48 oleonard Not the kind of bug-fixing you like cait?
14:49 cait no, not really
14:50 sophie_m joined #koha
14:59 wizzyrea does the word "branch" look weird to anyone else when they see it a lot?
15:00 * chris_n hands cait bug spray
15:01 * oleonard takes back the bug spray and hands cait an empty jar and a postcard
15:01 oleonard wizzyrea: branch branch branch branch branch branch branch branch branch branch branch branch branch branch branch
15:01 * chris_n remembers a story about 5 pound spiders
15:01 * wizzyrea pulls cait off into the corner and whispers secrets and giggles while the boys take care of the spider
15:01 chris_n what'd you have for breakfast oleonard ;-)
15:02 cait hehe
15:03 * cait shares m&m s with wizzyrea
15:03 sophie_m joined #koha
15:04 * wizzyrea giggles
15:04 chris_n now a spider that ate mesquites might be more welcome around here
15:04 oops
15:04 mosquitoes
15:04 wizzyrea thanks oleonard I think you fixed my weird perception of the word "branch"
15:04 chris_n spell checker strikes again
15:05 oleonard spiders that ate mesquite would cause no end of problems in the barbecue industry
15:09 * cait puts the bowl of m&ms in the middle of #koha
15:14 gmcharlt botsnacks *and* people-snacks!
15:14 cait++
15:14 cait lol
15:14 wish there was really someone to eat them before i do

16:55 bg heya oleonard and cait
16:57 magnuse good afternoon, #koha
17:02 oleonard Testing a possible fix for Bug 7135: http://screencast.com/t/0gBcTT6OKQ
17:02 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7135 enhancement, P5, ---, gmcharlt, NEW , save button options
17:03 cait that looks really nice!
17:04 * oleonard hasn't tested browsers yet
17:04 cait I have alibrary reporting they have problems with the pull down buttons
17:04 for a blind staff member
17:04 have to look into that sometime :(
17:05 bg you should say I have to "feel" into that sometime
17:06 :(
17:06 oh screencast is slow from India
17:06 cait bg: I think worst case is I will make it single links for them, but a solution that can go into koha would be nice
17:06 not sure how to test that though, will need the library helping
17:07 bg yeah more ADA the better - is the truth
17:22 nengard got a question about the isbn match when adding records - is it matching on the 020 in the marc or on the isbn field in the biblioitems table?
17:24 cait in cataloging or in staged import?
17:24 the staged imports use the zebra indexes, so 020 from the marc
17:24 nengard let's say in both
17:25 cait I think the duplicate check in cataloging works different
17:25 rangi once read the code for me
17:25 nengard hmmmm
17:25 cait it also checked the biblio level item type and some other things
17:25 nengard okay - i might need sekjal to do some code reading for me to solve this one then
17:27 cait sorry, I don't have the document here where I put it down :(
17:31 collum ls
17:31 oops
17:35 cait hi collum

18:04 melia left #koha
18:08 oleonard Oh no I should have submitted my patches a few hours later!
18:09 melia joined #koha
18:16 oleonard One of these days I hope we get a patch submitted or signed off on from someone actually on Kiritimati
18:16 magnuse hehe, that would be cool
18:17 * oleonard puts that on his list for when he's a fabulously wealthy wandering Koha dev
18:17 magnuse yay
18:19 cait :)
18:20 magnuse wandering koha dev sounds cool!
18:20 * oleonard should get into the business of installing Koha for eccentric billionaires.
18:20 libsysguy isn't that druthb?
18:21 cait hm, no
18:21 sounds more like jared
18:21 libsysguy oh haha
18:21 cait jcamins_away jcamins_away jcamins_away
18:21 * libsysguy should go nomad like jcamins
18:22 magnuse druthb has the "wandering" part down, at least ;-)
18:22 cait no, the nomad is druthb
18:22 magnuse what she said
18:22 libsysguy haha so can we have the best of both
18:22 wandering devel for excentric millionaires
18:22 magnuse yay!
18:23 now we're talking
18:23 cait lol
18:23 * cait hands libsysguy and magnuse the last m&ms
18:23 cait take them away from me
18:23 eat them!
18:23 magnuse yum, thanks!
18:23 will do!
18:23 * libsysguy is already chowing down on some subway cookies :)
18:23 takes m&m's anyway
18:23 libsysguy nom nom nom
18:27 magnuse is chowing "Dumle", but that's probably a Norwegian specialty? chocolate-covered, soft caramels...
18:28 * magnuse shares some Dumle with #koha
18:28 cait ooh yummy
18:28 rangi morning
18:29 wizzyrea mornin :)
18:30 magnuse kia ora rangi
18:32 * oleonard is still getting used to seeing signoffs from rangi
18:33 rangi heh
18:33 I can do that again now
18:34 magnuse rangi: since paul_p isn't here at the moment, is there some kind of kleenup after 3.6.0 that would be a good activity for gbsd (which is in progress as we speak...)?
18:34 cait hi rangi :)
18:34 magnuse like closing bugs or marking resolved or something
18:34 rangi exactly that
18:35 magnuse marking resolved *and* closing?
18:35 or just marking resolved fixed and then you do the closing?
18:37 rangi resolved fixed
18:37 and paul does the closing
18:37 magnuse ah, ok cool
18:37 rangi im done, done I say
18:37 nengard does the onloan field in the items table actually get populated properly?
18:37 rangi now I just get to do what I want :)
18:37 magnuse yay!
18:38 nengard rangi you want to sign off on my db documentation patches :) I know you do!! :)
18:38 rangi maybe after work :?
18:38 :) even
18:38 magnuse rangi: i just thought i remembered you said you had a list of bugs you would close when 3.6.0 was out the door...
18:39 rangi thats all on the releasemanagement wiki
18:39 I probably did say that
18:39 not gonna tho
18:40 :?
18:40 hmm
18:40 my shift key on the phone is being weird
18:42 magnuse ok, just wondering ;-)

19:09 oleonard ^ Looking for testers wrt browser compatibility
19:16 nengard cait, i'm trying to edit a report of yours
19:17 cait :)
19:17 nengard http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]Library#Patrons_w.2F_Fines
19:17 I'm trying to limit it to patrons who are not expired
19:17 my first attempt didn't work
19:17 cait ah ok
19:17 let me check
19:18 nengard figured it out!!
19:18 I was doing something silly :)
19:18 sorry about that
19:21 cait no problem :)
19:27 rangi back
19:29 oleonard wizzyrea: Do you have EnhancedMessagingPreferences enabled in your system?
19:29 wizzyrea yep
19:31 oleonard Anything in particular you found you needed to customize in the messages?
19:31 I notice the "Advance Notice of Item Due" notice says "due soon." No due date?
19:31 I guess there are issues with what information is available to various notices.
19:32 cait oleonard: I think there were some date formatting problems too
19:32 but some of them are working better now

21:17 wizzyrea @later tell oleonard "due soon" has always annoyed me personally - I wish it would just tell me when it's due.
21:17 huginn wizzyrea: The operation succeeded.
21:20 rangi due in 2913 seconds!
21:20 wizzyrea hehe
21:31 I guess it's not safe to assume that you would always want to update the patron category when you update a kid to an adult
21:32 rangi hmm?
21:32 cait how else would you update?
21:32 wizzyrea well there are types and there are categories
21:32 C, A for types
21:33 arbitrary categories
21:33 cait ok
21:33 I think I would assume you will always want to go from a c to a a category
21:33 wizzyrea they're independent
21:34 * cait can't follow
21:34 cait if you do it now in staff
21:34 hit the update button
21:34 wizzyrea so you've got the hardcoded types, right?
21:34 cait it will offer you all a categories
21:34 to choose one from, right?
21:34 wizzyrea this isn't in the web interface
21:34 cait I know
21:34 wizzyrea oh
21:34 so yea, ok... I think I'm right in the way I did it
21:35 cait I think updating the type does not make much sense
21:35 but updating the patron category
21:35 wizzyrea I was worried that it would be bad to assume that one wanted to update the type without updating the category
21:35 cait hm
21:35 wizzyrea I suppose you could have a library where they had a single category and the usual multiple types, but it's not terribly likely
21:36 cait I think you wil always want to update the category and leave the configuration for categories and types alone
21:36 wizzyrea well and geez
21:36 rangi ?
21:36 cait now you confused me liz :(
21:36 wizzyrea never mind.
21:36 :)
21:36 I think it's ok
21:37 cait ok
21:37 wizzyrea this is what I came up with: http://pastebin.com/qjqEUrVk
21:38 because the existing j2a didn't deal with the categories
21:38 only the type
21:38 and was thus worthless
21:38 well, less worthful
21:38 rangi *nod*
21:39 you need a license statement and copyright header fwiw :-) but full marks for the POD
21:39 you get +10 more if you switch on use warnings
21:39 * wizzyrea can do both of those
21:40 rangi yay :)
21:40 wizzyrea that doesn't have the test mode bit that I want to put in
21:41 * rangi looks at bug 7077
21:41 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7077 enhancement, PATCH-Sent, ---, oleonard, ASSIGNED , Add system pref to control behavior of submitting empty barcode field on circulation page
21:41 rangi ahh test modes are always awesome
21:44 oh and this
21:44 wahanui and this is probably the most crowded syspref tab
21:44 rangi git config --global alias.sh 'show --word-diff=color'
21:45 then type git sh
21:45 cait test modes? :)
21:45 wizzyrea the "show me what would happen if I ran this" mode
21:45 cait ah
21:45 wizzyrea "but don't actually do it"
21:45 cait yes
21:45 and a mail with updated patrons :)
21:46 wizzyrea I actually thought of that >.>
21:46 it was on my list of things that would be nice to have
21:46 rangi owen gets back functionality we had in 1.2 but that went missing
21:46 oleonard++
21:47 * rangi tests more
21:47 cait oleonard++ indeed
21:47 he has been busy in acq too :)
21:48 rangi git config --global alias.lg "log --graph --pretty=format:'%Cred%h%Creset -%C(yellow)%d%Creset %s %Cgreen(%cr) %C(bold blue)<%an>%Creset' --abbrev-commit --date=relative"
21:48 checkt that out
21:48 try a git lg
21:48 cait the git thing is nice
21:49 sh is for?
21:49 rangi show
21:49 rhcl Well, LC says MARC and Z39-2 are dead?
21:49 cait ah k
21:49 rangi LoC says lots of things
21:49 :)
21:50 but id hope that this will at least hasten their demise
21:53 rhcl demise of LC?
21:53 rangi MARC
21:53 its been dead for 30 years
21:53 rhcl oh
21:53 rangi doesnt stop ppl using it ;-)
21:55 talljoy speaking of MARC.
21:55 * talljoy ducks
21:56 talljoy i'm looking for authority records in the staff client and none are appearing like expected even after authorities are reindexed
21:56 cait how did you import them? an dhow are they not appearing as expected?
21:56 rangi if you change it search headings do they?
21:57 talljoy they appear when i click on 'search main heading' but not if i search on the default "search authorities'
21:58 how did i import....let me think....i believe it was through the command line.
21:58 rangi yeah, id noticed that before talljoy
21:58 i think its a bug
21:58 something changed recent ish
21:58 talljoy phew.  it's not me then.
21:58 cait hmmm
21:58 I tested something about authority searching and the default thing
21:58 perhaps I can find the bug
22:02 ah, I was thinking about bug 5910
22:02 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=5910 enhancement, PATCH-Sent, ---, gmcharlt, NEW , Authorities : allow users to search on all auth types
22:04 talljoy ok.  i need to see what version of koha i am looking at here.
22:07 authorities are going to be the death of me.
22:08 cait talljoy: this bug is not in koha - so perhaps only confusing
22:09 talljoy i get that 'search main heading' will pull up my personal name authority records, but why does the 'search authorities' option return no results.
22:09 that seems bug-like
22:11 rangi yes, yes it does
22:12 talljoy lol.  I guess I'll enter a bug,  but I don't want any closer association with MARC authority records.
