00:30	jcamins_away	chris_n: congratulations!
00:31	* jcamins_away	is in Lawrence, KS. :)
00:43		melia left #koha
01:09		Oak joined #koha
01:09	Oak	\o
01:47	wajasu	whilst running my automated preseed squeeze + koha 3.8.1 (koha-common), i have the "koha 3.2-3.4 upgrade notice" that is always shown. now if i could get that to be ignored so my vm builder script would run through without any prompt, I would be happy.
01:47		preseed.cfg as in debian installer.
01:58		mtompset joined #koha
01:58	mtompset	Greetings, #koha folk.
02:02	Oak	hello :)
02:05	mtompset	Hi, Oak. :)
02:06		I'm using Koha 3.6.3, what version do you use, Oak?
02:06	Oak	i use 3.6.4
02:08	mtompset	I think I found a bug in moremember.pl, but I'm not sure what else to look for in bugzilla.
02:09	wizzyrea	what bug?
02:09	wahanui	bug is always bad news, particularly if you haven't filed it yet.
02:09	mtompset	$error may be undefined.
02:09		Near the top, $error is set to a CGI parameter.
02:10		Then later on, past a subroutine in the middle of the code (YUCK!) it is used to build a key for the template.
02:10		The C4::Template catches the error and generates an error log entry.
02:10	wizzyrea	seems likely there's not a bug for something like that - unless it causes a functional issue it probably wouldn't be reported
02:11	mtompset	A value without a key.
02:11		[Mon Jun 04 11:50:36 2012] [error] [client 192.168.100.2] [Mon Jun 4 11:50:36 2012] moremember.pl: Problem = a value of 1 has been passed to param without key at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Templates.pm line 186.
02:12	Oak	i think you should file a bug report... later on, then some other issues pops up because of this, then your bug report will save someone's time instead of hunting it down...
02:13	mtompset	I always have a hard time determining what to categorize the bug as.
02:13		I mean component.
02:13	Oak	you can always ask here. wizzyrea is here so we can ask her...
02:13	mtompset	This isn't really a Template error.
02:14		What would moremembers.pl be component-wise?
02:16		Staff client?
02:16	wahanui	Staff client is for the staff in the library, OPAC is for patrons
02:21	wizzyrea	circulation
02:21	wahanui	circulation is really much faster with that... But also display of biblios with many items......
02:21	wizzyrea	sorry was afk a moment
02:37	mtompset	Not a problem.
02:37		I followed the bug further back...
02:37		Found this:
02:37		$input->redirect("/cgi-bin/koha/circ/circulation.pl?borrowernumber=$borrowernumber") : $input->redirect("/cgi-bin/koha/members/moremember.pl?borrowernumber=$borrowernumber") ; exit; # You can only send 1 redirect! After that, content or other headers don't matter.
02:38		If someone put a comment there, then why didn't someone clean it up?
02:39		That's from memberentry.pl around line 366.
02:39		It's the only line that refers to moremember.pl
03:04		Soupermanito left #koha
03:08	mtompset	Hmmm.... noticed a potentially larger problem...
03:09		grep moremember.pl `find . -name '*pl'`
03:09		I just noticed some pass bornum.
03:09		Some pass borrowernumber
03:09		And only some pass error.
03:36		Ah... It's an older bug, I think.
03:36		bug 7360
03:36	huginn`	04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7360 critical, P3, ---, paul.poulain, Pushed to Stable , Importing a SQL file for frameworks based on Default Framework deletes the default framework
03:36	mtompset	Oops...
03:36		bug 7630
03:36	huginn`	04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7630 minor, P5 - low, ---, kyle.m.hall, NEW , Warning on moremember.pl about param without key
03:40	mtompset	And I believe the same solution will also solve 7352
03:40		but 7352
03:40		bug 7352
03:40	huginn`	04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7352 normal, P5 - low, ---, kyle.m.hall, NEW , moremember.pl generates error in Template.pm related to missing $key value
04:04		Oak joined #koha
04:39		cait joined #koha
04:40	Oak	Guten Morgen cait :)
04:40	cait	good morning Oak :)
04:42	Oak	everything okay there in Edinburgh?
04:42	cait	yep
04:42	Oak	good.
04:43	mtompset	Good day, to both of you. :)
04:43	Oak	:) and to you
04:44	cait	hi mtompset
04:45	mtompset	So, how is a bug assigned to someone? Do they take it, or is it automatically assigned?
04:46	cait	they do take it
04:46		if a bug is still marked NEW than noone is working on it
04:46	mtompset	:(
04:46	cait	hm or so it hsould be, but it sometimes hard to tell because people forget
04:46		are we tlaking about a specific bug?
04:46	mtompset	I've encountered a bug that was reported back in March.
04:47		bug 7352
04:47	huginn`	04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7352 normal, P5 - low, ---, kyle.m.hall, NEW , moremember.pl generates error in Template.pm related to missing $key value
04:47	mtompset	bug 7630
04:47	huginn`	04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7630 minor, P5 - low, ---, kyle.m.hall, NEW , Warning on moremember.pl about param without key
04:47	mtompset	different modules called moremember.pl
04:48		But the bug fix, should be the same.
04:48	cait	perhaps you could provide a patch? :)
04:48	mtompset	Of course, I didn't check out any template files which might break as a result of the change I suggested.
04:48	cait	we could help you with that
04:50	mtompset	Well, in moremember.pl around line 446....
04:50	cait	I think it's only a warn maybe, so not really a but
04:50		but tidying the logs is a good idea
04:51	mtompset	but it could be fixed.
04:51	cait	I did some patches for the opac a while ago
04:51		lots of things could be fixed
04:51	mtompset	around 446 there is a massive $template->param()
04:51		if the '$error => 1' was split out.
04:52		into a seperate $template->param($error => 1) if $error;
04:52		less error logs.
04:52	cait	but maybe unhappy templates, not sure
04:52		sorry, just woke up :)
04:52		I would suggest sending in a patch
04:52	mtompset	True...
04:53		nice thought, but I don't know how to: generate a patch, send a patch, etc.
04:53		and I haven't gone looking at the template file(s) yet.
04:56	cait	that we can help you with :)
04:56		and there are tutorials on a wiki, it's really not hard
04:56	mtompset	only reference to error is [% IF ( error ) %]
04:56	cait	the hard part is knowing what goes wrong
04:56	mtompset	How is that evaluated if error is undefined?
04:57		And what if error is empty?
04:57		where is patch tutorials
04:58		where is patch
04:58	cait	git?
04:58	wahanui	i guess patch is pretty old now, good luck
04:58		rumour has it git is http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]Control_Using_Git
04:59	cait	hm there is also http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]eptance/Rejection
05:00		if you have a git installation, we can walk you through it the first time
05:01	mtompset	Let me see... I think I have a git version lying around here somewhere...
05:01		(hunting through VMs)
05:05		I think it is this one... (wait for the boot)
05:05	cait	ok
05:05		basically
05:05		you update to latest master with a git pull
05:06	mtompset	done that.
05:06	cait	then you want a new branch to work on for your patch (never work on master branch)
05:06	mtompset	(before)
05:06	cait	git branch -b <yournameofchoice>
05:06		then you work work work....
05:06		and test
05:06	mtompset	That's my problem...
05:06	cait	and then git add <changed file>
05:06		git commit
05:06	mtompset	Don't have data to test.
05:06	cait	and you are almost done
05:07		you could use the sample data
05:07		we have sample patrons that can be loaded on install
05:07	mtompset	okay... so, recap:
05:07		create a branch: git branch -b my_shiny_new_bughunt_related_to_7630
05:08		then I tweak moremember.pl
05:08		then I test.
05:08		(that's going to be the harder part)
05:08		then I git add moremember.pl
05:08		(do i have to do full path?)
05:09	cait	relative
05:09		git status will show you
05:09		which files you have changed and the paths
05:09	rangi	git checkout -b branchname
05:09	mtompset	and if all the tests seem good.
05:09	rangi	is what i do
05:09	cait	oh right
05:09		typo
05:09		sorry
05:09		thx for catching that rangi :)
05:10	rangi	git branch will make the branch, but you wont be on it it, git checkout -b makes the branchand puts you on it in one go
05:10	mtompset	git checkout -b {mybranchname choice}
05:10	rangi	yep
05:10		that is shorthand for
05:10		git branch mybranchname
05:10		git checkout mybranchname
05:10	mtompset	instead of or in addition to git branch?
05:11	rangi	instead of
05:11	mtompset	oh okay...
05:11		so git branch -b newbranch
05:11		git checkout newbranch
05:11		is the same as
05:11		git checkout -b newbranch
05:11	rangi	the -b doesnt work with git branch
05:11		cait typoed
05:11	cait	yeah, sleepy cait :)
05:12	rangi	but otherwise yes
05:12	mtompset	okay, but less the -b, those two commands and the same as the one?
05:12	rangi	checkout -b is a shortcut
05:12	mtompset	Okay good.
05:12	rangi	and you can specify the branch you want to create it from
05:12		git checkout -b newbranch master
05:12	mtompset	is there a 3.6.3 branch? ;)
05:12	rangi	will create a branch, based on master, and check it out
05:13		there is a 3.6.3 tag
05:13	cait	mtompset: there is but you want to create patches on master
05:13		from master...
05:13	rangi	but you always want to be writing patches against master
05:13		so they will apply
05:13	cait	and they will get from there into the lower versions :)
05:13	rangi	then the release maintainer
05:13		which is jcamins_away for 3.6.x.
05:13	cait	ok, i will let rangi explain and get ready for the day :)
05:14	rangi	will pull it back
05:14	mtompset	okay... so... recap from the top
05:14	rangi	and ill do the same for the 3.8.x branch
05:14	mtompset	git checkout -b newbranch
05:14		tweak moremember.pl
05:14		do some testing
05:14		everything works
05:14		git add moremember.pl
05:15	rangi	git commit
05:15	mtompset	Right?
05:15	rangi	write a nice commit message, starting with Bug bugnumber
05:15		and you have your first commit
05:15		from there
05:15	wahanui	from there is no trend
05:16	rangi	you can make a patch
05:16		git format-patch origin/master
05:16		(that says write a patch from this commit that will reply on the upstream master)
05:16	mtompset	origin/master?
05:16		why not origin or master?
05:17	rangi	master is your local copy
05:17		origin/master is specify the mster branch from origin (upstream)
05:17		it's a good way to make sure you are making the patch against the write branch
05:18	mtompset	oh, so the git commit doesn't hit the git repo at origin?
05:18	rangi	nope
05:18		distributed version control ftw
05:18		it makes a commit locally
05:18	mtompset	WHEW
05:18		That is like my biggest fear.
05:19		I don't want to commit up to the source repo.
05:20	rangi	yep, you cant
05:20		even if you wanted to
05:20		:)
05:20	mtompset	For once in my life, I'm glad I can't do that. :)
05:20	rangi	ok, im gonna go start my day too
05:21	mtompset	Thanks for the help.
05:21		Have a good day (24 hour period).
05:22	Oak	good luck rangi and cait
05:22		have fun
05:22		mtompset++
05:23	mtompset	Thanks, Oak.
05:24		I suppose this is a "Don't ask why" thing? ;)
05:24	Oak	yup :)
05:28	mtompset	I see the bug location has moved in the master... someone else got annoyed with a subroutine in the middle of the code flow. :)

05:38		is there any performance related difference if we install koha on server edition of ubuntu and desktop edition of ubuntu

06:23	mtompset	Ah, I discovered the answer to one of my former questions: Variables that have not been assigned a value, either with DEFAULT or SET, are considered to be false (the value of an undefined variable is an empty string).

06:57	* drojf	smells bacon too
06:58	mtompset	breakfast can be defined as the first meal of the day.
06:58		This means if you don't eat until 5pm, that's breakfast.
06:58		It also helps you time travel. ;)

08:01	Oak	Ahoy me hearties
08:04	mtompset	Hmmm... pirate Oak?
08:07	Oak	:)
08:07	mtompset	Do you play XBox at all?
08:08		Your comment made me think of "Age of Booty"
08:08	Oak	nope. don't have it.
08:09		and i have not played video games in ages...
08:09		I used to play Age of Empires II with friends a long time ago... good days
08:09	mtompset	Then what caused the pirate greeting?
08:09	Oak	sigh
08:10		too many questions mtompset :)
08:10		just to make people smile i guess
08:10	mtompset	Okay... I get it.
08:10	Oak	a simple hello is fine... but sometime i try different ...
08:10		stuff
08:10		:)
08:10	mtompset	Sorry, I start thinking of lots of questions when I'm bu hunting.
08:11		^bu^bug^
08:11	Oak	oh no worries
08:11		you are doing fine here
08:11	mtompset	This moremember.pl bug I encountered seems to have generated several related bug reports.
08:11		some more related than oters.
08:12		^oters^others^
08:12	Oak	:) your Perl knowledge is good I think (I "think"... because I don't know Perl myself). And you can help Koha a lot.
08:13	mtompset	You a librarian type then and less of a programmer type?
08:13	Oak	i'm a web developer actually, and did my MLIS just now (project report pending)...
08:14	mtompset	so you prefer PHP?
08:14		ASP?
08:15	Oak	well, we use Joomla/CSS/HTML mainly.
08:15	mtompset	Ah, okay.
08:15		With Koha integrated?
08:16		or at least linked in?
08:16	Oak	just did my first Koha installation for a university's management science department library (as my MLIS project). so you can say i'm new to Koha.
08:17		http://koha-library.uaar.edu.pk/
08:17	mtompset	That's about where I am... though, I dont have any library credentials.
08:18	Oak	it will be linked to university's website soon. not finished yet. i don't like some color combination. plus need some content some links.
08:18		you'll get there :)
08:21	* Oak	goes to the kitchen
08:29	* mtompset	hopes it isn't for a huge knife. ;)

09:02	nengard	cait all pics tagged kohacon12 here: http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=kohacon12&m=tags
09:02		if case others share on flickr
09:02		in case (not if case)
09:02	cait	thx!
09:02	mtompset	Hmm... which makes me wonder... is there a facebook page?
09:05	cait	there is twitter:
09:05		https://twitter.com/#!/search/%23kohacon12
09:05		was collecting some links to send to my coworkers at home
09:06		talljoy joined #koha

09:10	mtompset	twitter, flikr... no facebook?
09:12		eythian joined #koha
09:14	cait	mtompset: i am not on facebook - there might be something I am not aware of
09:15	matts	I don't think you can search by tag on facebook, can you ?
09:15	mtompset	I just did a search for koha on facebook.
09:15		Nothing of significance.
09:16		Actually, the search functionality in groups is relatively good.
09:16		If I remember some keywords in a status update, I can find it.
09:16	matts	okay
09:16	mtompset	Sadly, they don't have that functionality on my own facebook page.
09:17		Truly sucky that way.
09:18		I saw someone say that plack-compatibility could give a 150% performance boost.
09:19		Is that even in a virtual machine with only 204MB of ram?
09:19	nengard	that's what paul_p said - I just typed it out :)
09:19	talljoy	check the Koha wiki for more details
09:20		http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Plack
09:20	wahanui	http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Plack is probably good place to get started with latest development

10:39	mtompset	Oops...
10:39		Hate it when someone reads the thread and cleans up comments.
10:39		when I just finished adding another comment. Oh well.
10:39		At least the status is what it should be
10:40	nengard	anyone know where the irc logs stats are?
10:40		URL?
10:40	wahanui	hmmm... URL is horrid :)
10:40	cait	irc logs?
10:40	wahanui	irc logs are http://irc.koha-community.org/irclog/koha/
10:41	cait	hm seeing no link there

10:41		nengard: is that what you want ?
10:41	nengard	yes!
10:41		thanks :)
10:41		how about the one he has for the lists?
10:42	mtompset	Sweet! I'm forever on record on the internet. ;)
10:44		What's the #kohails tag for?
10:45		davidnind joined #koha
10:45	slef	looked like markmail
10:46		paul_p joined #koha
10:46	cait	mtompset: mostly used on twitter I think
10:47	mtompset	Why wouldn't it be @kohails?
10:48		Seems that kohails is a valid twitter user.
10:48	cait	you use the tag to mark tweets for that topic
10:48		so everyone can use the tags and you can search for them
10:49	mtompset	Oh right... something about the newsletter, right?
10:50	nengard	#kohails is a way to search for tweets about Koha - @kohails is a way to talk to the Koha twitter user (which is really a few of us and a bot posting info about Koha)
10:50	cait	ok, nengard can explain it way better :)
10:50	slef	ok I'm off back to twitter
10:50	cait	nengard++
10:50	mtompset	What is the ILS for again?
10:51	nengard	does anyone have the URL for the mailing list stats that chris had up on the screen?
10:51	cait	integrated library system
10:51	nengard	i'm here: http://stats.workbuffer.org/ but i can't find it
10:51	mtompset	integrated... right.
10:51	cait	http://stats.workbuffer.org/ircstats/

11:13		rangi just did an awesome presentation :)
11:15	mtompset	Are all the presentations going to be on the Wiki somewhere?
11:15	cait	probably not on the wiki, but quite suere the slides will be uploaded
11:15		perhaps slideshare or the website

11:24		others are being linked in i think as well
11:26	mtompset	Hey, some people are new to Koha, your presentation was probably a good introduction/warm up.
11:27	cait	also a good reminder :)
11:27		and he made people share stories
11:27	* mtompset	nods.
11:27	mtompset	Reminders are good.
11:27		Great way to pad the presentation! ;)
11:32	jcamins_away	Hello from Lawrence, KS.
11:33		eythian joined #koha
11:36	mtompset	Hello, jcamins_away
11:38		So, how are you this morning?
11:38		I was reading through bugzilla and the wiki this morning. Saw your name a couple times. :)
11:39		It's evening here now.
11:39	jcamins	I'm doing pretty well. A bit sleepy.
11:40		And insulted that the cat spent forty-five minutes whimpering at the door for attention, then ran away and hid the moment I got up to scratch his ears.
11:40	mtompset	Well, it is rather early in KS.
11:41		It's like what? 5:40am or 6:40am?
11:41	jcamins	6:40.
11:44		medmondson joined #koha
11:49	jcamins	mtompset: I saw you've been busy patching things. :)
11:52	mtompset	or at least commenting on them. :)
11:53		I haven't quite got to the patching stage yet.
11:57		By the way, are their reasons that Koha is debianist?
11:57		vs redhat that is
11:58		^their^there^
12:00	jcamins	mtompset: that's what everyone uses.
12:00		mtompset: just a chicken and egg thing.
12:00		The people who wanted to spend time on packaging preferred Debian, so they did Debian packages.
12:01		Then those of us who started later used Debian because hey, Debian was already better supported.
12:04	mtompset	I'm using Ubuntu. :P
12:04	medmondson	Having been a Debianist for years I have recently moved into a red hat/windows environment. Its a tad disorientating and I have had to change my attitudes! Also now I am installing services I am finding that many of the apps that I want to install are better supported under Debian.
12:06	mtompset	I find I still prefer yum over apt-get.
12:06		But when in Rome.... ;)

12:18	huginn`	mtompset: The operation succeeded.
12:18	mtompset	What triggers the message? appearing?
12:20	druthb	saying something in-channel. :)
12:20	mtompset	DOH! Totally missed the other tab.
12:20		@later tell mtompset Testing!
12:20	druthb	lulz

12:47		Sorry, I don't know.

12:51	medmondson	mtompset you Debian comment above has reopened the debate in this office. we have had to move away from each other to take a breather. ; >
12:52	mtompset	Sorry for causing a feud.
12:52		nengard joined #koha
12:52	mtompset	It's just that such a useful product should be shared with as many people as possible.
12:53		This means cross-OS friendliness.
12:53		Sanders on the Zebra mailing list was trying to set up Koha under CentOS.
12:53		It sounds like he succeeded. :)
12:56	jcamins	mtompset: agreed. The problem is that CentOS is overwhelming.
12:57		(for those of us who only have experience with Debian)
12:57		ago43 joined #koha
12:57	mtompset	most linux systems are overwhelming for those who only have windows experience.
12:58	jcamins	lol
12:58		Touche.
12:58		Also, I used RedHat waaaaay back, and rpm sucked back then.
12:58	mtompset	still does.
12:59		But yum is friendly enough.
12:59	jcamins	I think my experience predated yum.
13:00	mtompset	Okay... I have another bug to report... nothing major, just annoying for installation.
13:00		bengard joined #koha
13:00	jcamins	mtompset: there are lots of those. The more eyes on the system, the better.
13:00	mtompset	there is a handy little script ./install_misc/ubuntu_packages.sh (or something like that)
13:00		there is also a handy perl program koha_perl_deps.pl (or something like that)
13:00	jcamins	Is it out of date again?
13:01	mtompset	the ubuntu.packages is missing a line.
13:01		irma joined #koha
13:01	jcamins	Yeah, we have _got_ to find a better way to deal with that. It's always going out of sync.
13:02	mtompset	well, the problem is that koha_perl_deps.pl.... does a perl check.
13:02		the ubuntu script does an apt-cache check.
13:02		if there was a base file....
13:02		paul_p joined #koha
13:03	mtompset	for the <apt-get library>,perl cpan equivalent,required
13:03		for each, then both programs could read the same data file when checking, and they'd be both up to date by reading the same source file.
13:03	* druthb	blames jcamins
13:03	jcamins	Oh, that makes sense.
13:04	* jcamins	protests.
13:04	* druthb	rebuts.
13:04	mtompset	getting blamed makes sense, or my idea?
13:04	jcamins	Your idea.
13:04	druthb	him getting blamed makes sense, too.
13:04	mtompset	by the way the missing file is libdatatime-format-mysql-perl
13:05		DATE time.
13:05		I frequently mix data and date.
13:05		libdatetime-format-mysql-perl
13:05	jcamins	One could use that very cool apt-file command to determine on the fly which packages had the missing dependencies.
13:06		kyleh_ joined #koha
13:06	mtompset	only if the apt-file results were unique.
13:06		Generally, when I run the ./koha_perl_deps.pl
13:06		-m
13:06		I take a major portion of the name
13:06		and then
13:07		aptitude search datetime-format-mysql
13:07		because generally....
13:07		BlAh::BLAH::blah
13:07		means blah-blah-blah in the aptitude search
13:08		libsysguy joined #koha
13:08	mtompset	The problem is that sometimes, depending on OS and version of OS...
13:09		blah-blah-blah isn't available as a package, but it may be available via CPAN.
13:10	jcamins	Right. But we can have a script that tries first.
13:10	mtompset	Well, I like ./koha_perl_deps.pl
13:10		It's usually more up to date.
13:12		Also, the ubuntu stuff is pointing at yaz3.
13:12		alex_a joined #koha
13:12	mtompset	yaz4 replaces it.
13:14	libsysguy	everytime someone talks about yaz I hear the birth control commercial
13:14	wajasu	i did a script for archlinux 2 years ago. I really wanted that "base list" of dependencies. It would be nice if if could be given the smarts to spit out the list of package deps and desired versions, for other distributions as well. archlinux has its own perl package naming convention. at least the deps could be maintained at koha's repos.
13:17	mtompset	C4/Installer/PerlDependencies.pm
13:17		Has a nice structure of all the data.
13:17	wajasu	i ran a koha server under this "rolling" release distribution, but once deployed in production, 8 months later, the distribution had fallen too far back to update its packages. so now i think a "stable" server is the way to go.
13:18	mtompset	It would be nice if that structure was modified to include the equivalent Ubuntu package names
13:19		Or perhaps if the structure was offset by an external mapping file.
13:20		This would allow for people to take the perl module name, pass it through a function, and come out with the OS' apt-get equivalent.
13:20	wajasu	i am now thinking that if a kvm-based image is performant enough, the devs could develop for debian, and different distributions would just worry about keeping the virtual machine running across the years.
13:21		NateC joined #koha
13:21	mtompset	Well, if you control the host, that method would work.
13:22		However, not everyone has control of their host.
13:22		alex_a joined #koha
13:24	mtompset	Hmm.... C4/Installer/PerlDep....
13:24		That gives me an idea!
13:25		talljoy joined #koha
13:26		drojf joined #koha
13:28		alex_a joined #koha
13:34	wajasu	another thing I had to do was install perl packages in a certain order, since those deps pulled in more deps. it took hours to figure out how.
13:36		plus arch would update to newer perl versions (OS needed). but koha didn't. thus catch-22.
13:37		i also tried some perl distribution environment boostrapper (brew i think it was called). i had success to automate using cpan-minus or such.
13:38	mtompset	app-perlbrew?

14:10	wizzyrea	master is 3.9, to become 3.10 stable

14:17	mtompset	I was wondering if someone would mind sharing their my.conf with me... I'd like to see what the defaults for a debian system are.
14:18		I mean my.cnf

14:22	rangi	oh hey paul_p
14:23	sekjal	paul_p: sorry about that... I should have caught it in QA
14:23	mtompset	Your link, paul_p, though useful for future reference, doesn't answer the questions related to configuring MySQL.
14:23	sekjal	in my defense, B and H are very similar shades of orange
14:24	oleonard	Hi everyone
14:24	mtompset	SHOW variables like '%char%';
14:24		SHOW variables like '%collation%';
14:24		are they all UTF-8 or binary?
14:24		I'm just curious as to what values debian folks see.
14:25	jcamins	Defaults to latin1.
14:26		zioha joined #koha
14:26	mtompset	but latin1 isn't UTF-8.
14:26		What if you have some bizarre character in your titles?
14:27		The system I'm working with could end up with Chinese titles, Thai titles, Filipino titles, English titles, etc.
14:27		I don't think latin1 would cut it.
14:28	jcamins	mtompset: but it doesn't matter.
14:28		mtompset: that's why Koha sets everything manually to utf-8.
14:29	mtompset	Are you sure the front end entry of utf-8 to a back-end latin1 is going to get transformed back to utf-8 in the display later on when it is looked up?

20:33	cait	I think they can do stuff like that if you do evil seo tricks, but we didn't
20:34	slef	I think it's on webmaster tools no?
20:34		is there a meta tag with gibberish on the page?
20:34		(not on my laptop yet)

20:38	wizzyrea	there are no messages for k-c.org in webmaster tools
20:38		it shows green across the board
20:39	sekjal	wizzyrea: maybe Google is just hosed at the moment
20:39	wizzyrea	yea, up to 5/31 it was over 3k clicks a day, average position 5.1
20:39		which is not great but at least on the first page

21:00	drojf	ok, thats the right city at least
21:01	cait	I would offer a tshirt - but you probably prefer eythian's ;)
21:03	dunadan	No, cancel_expired_holds.pl moves holds from being expired to being cancelled,
21:03		and thus moved to the old_reserves table. Not every waiting hold has an
21:03		expiration date; it's not filled in by the holds fill process. The patron or
21:03		librarian has to set it manually. What's needed is an automated way of adding
21:03		these expiration dates based on the ReservesMaxPickupDelay value, so that
21:03		cancel_expired_holds.pl can capture and cancel them.
21:03	slef	and I'm too short and scrawny...
21:04		dunadan: mentioned in release notes you say?
21:05	dunadan	sorry about that, bug (7408) mentioned, yes
21:09		OK. got it now. It's a syspref called ExpireReservesMaxPickupDelay, thanks.
21:10	slef	heh... glad... I need a good 30mins to understand 7408
21:11	wizzyrea	bug 7408
21:11	huginn`	04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7408 blocker, P5 - low, ---, koha.sekjal, RESOLVED FIXED, Expire holds that have been waiting too long
21:11	slef	it's a fun read
21:11		paul_p comments about taking 2h on one step
21:12		looks thorny to me
21:13	dunadan	wizzy...this doesn't create a report anywhere does it. would be nice to know what holds to pull off of "waiting" shelf
21:14		I guess you have to dig it out of the sql tables, somewhere...the things that were cancelled
21:15	wizzyrea	hm, my best guess as to why this happened to kc.org is because of all of the footer links in koha catalogs.
21:15		yea, there's a hold over tab in holds awaiting pickup
21:16		circulation -> holds awaiting pickup -> hold over tab
21:17	dunadan	That "holds over" thing is a nightmare
21:17	rangi	wizzyrea: too many links?
21:17	wizzyrea	looks that way
21:18		too many links with formerly-seo-friendly anchor text
21:18	rangi	ah right, so we need to fix that syspref eh?
21:18	SJeffery	How can you tell that is the issue vs something else?
21:21	wizzyrea	well, reading. mostly.
21:21		about the latest google algorithm update.
21:21		for example
21:21		mdah.state.ms.us 1,316,137
21:21		they have a million links to us?
21:22	rangi	ah each page will have one
21:22	wizzyrea	exacterly
21:22		bsz has over 100k
21:23	rangi	hmm this must happen with other systems too
21:23		like wordpress
21:23	wizzyrea	yea, there was a similar case
21:23		of ^^^^^^ exactly
21:23		a wordpress theme developer
21:23		put backlinks on their theme, when people installed it
21:23		insisted they not remove it
21:23		they got heavily penalized.
21:23	rangi	well wordpress.org itself has a link
21:24		a powered by wordpress one
21:24	wizzyrea	right, I guess having the url "wordpress.org" on a link to wordpress.org is better than having an image or a "powered by wordpress"
21:24		i mean, I could be reading this wrong.
21:25	rangi	Proudly powered by WordPress etc
21:25	wizzyrea	http://searchengineland.com/fi[…]n-recovery-122700
21:25		there's the case of the wp theme dev
21:25	cait	wizzyrea: oups
21:26	wizzyrea	cait - is not a big deal - but the syspref probably should be changed?
21:26	rangi	what does it do now, an image link, or a text link?
21:26	wizzyrea	but the rest of the things they fixed for that wpmu - we don't have any of those errors.
21:26		good ?
21:27		it's text - powered by Koha
21:28	rangi	right, so we thinkg the problem is just the sheer number of them?
21:28		on any one site?
21:28	wizzyrea	that's what I think? evidence seems to point that way.
21:28	rangi	yep its def plausible
21:29	cait	but I think then the google algo is broken
21:29	wizzyrea	interestingly, we didn't get spanked until the 1.1 penguin update
21:29	cait	like rangi said, very common for lots of pages
21:30	wizzyrea	so maybe they will update it again
21:30		I've submitted it for reconsideration
21:30	rangi	coo
21:30	libsysguy	thoughts on http://screencast.com/t/QyASNc5MrN
21:30	rangi	l
21:30	wizzyrea	but it's not like we can just tell people "go use duckduckgo" - google is a verb now
21:30	rangi	yeah
21:31		finding out why it disappeared woud be the main thing, course they wont tell us why
21:31	wizzyrea	yea, and webmaster tools are not helpful
21:31	rangi	i can understand it dropping in rank, but gone altogether
21:31	* wizzyrea	goes to dig up the analytic... oh wait did we put that on piwik?
21:32		checks
21:32	rangi	that seems broken
21:32	slef	wizzyrea: cyberunions.org suggested using duckduckwent ;)
21:33	wizzyrea	it does seem broken.
21:33		well it's probably pages down in the results
21:33		sophie_m joined #koha
21:33	cait	libsysguy: i like the frequency idea - but think we would still need a delay? the dates are confusing to me
21:34		not sure how that is supposed to work
21:34		libsysguy: was more thinking something like.... start x days after overdue, freqzency x (every each x days) up to x occurences total
21:35	libsysguy	cait yeah I need to factor that in
21:35	wizzyrea	looks purty tho
21:35	libsysguy	a lot of those questions are in the "add notcie button"
21:35	cait	yep it does :)
21:35	libsysguy	wee thats what I was going for
21:35	cait	libsysguy: but why the dates?
21:36	libsysguy	the dates are for when to stop and start
21:36	cait	libsysguy: I mean they would change all the time?
21:36	libsysguy	so if stop is null
21:36		you send them forever
21:36	cait	hm
21:36		I might misunderstand that
21:36		but a date wouldn't work I think?
21:36	libsysguy	now that I think about it i mgiht too
21:36	cait	if you want up to 3 letters
21:36	libsysguy	well I am working on the rewrite
21:37		so I am thinking infinate notices
21:37	cait	I think having a stop and start date perhaps makes sense for when you want to factor in vacation / closed periods of time
21:37		but you would still need a counter fo rhow many you want to send
21:37	libsysguy	so I am trying to work out the recurrence
21:37		I thought about having a counter, it really makes more sense
21:38		i keep thinking of this as a calendar and not sending notices
21:38		I really like the way google calendar handles dates etc
21:38		but i think i got stuck on that
21:38		and missed the mark on what I was trying to do
21:38		but for today, all I've been workin on is the look
21:39		so hearing it is pretty makes me happy lol
21:41		anyway im out for the evening
21:41		cya tomorrow

22:31	* bencahill	has 2 1TB externals and a 2TB external. :)
22:31	slef	so it is 400 miles south of here
22:31		in a crate
22:31		oops!
22:32		I think today, I had one camera crash, 2 battery deaths and 3 full memories
22:32	bencahill	Ouch
22:32		slef: Wow, that's quite unfortunate. :-/
22:33	slef	yeah
22:33		there will be a few gaps in today's presentation recordings
22:33		I am glad that I am paranoid on days like today
22:33	bencahill	I'm still getting used to HD video, as many of our computers here can't handle it natively.
22:33		Yes.
22:33	slef	oh even the HD camera here, I am running in SD because of disk space
22:33	* bencahill	is extremely paranoid about data as well :P
22:33	slef	tomorrow, we will have 5 cameras!
22:34	bencahill	slef: Yeah, I can totally see that...and if the rest are SD anyway...
22:34		At one of my brother's recitals, I used 4 cameras (3 still cams that took video and a pocket cam)...I love different angles. :P
22:35	slef	heh... one of them is not even SD... QVGA antique
22:35	bencahill	hehe
22:36	slef	I still carry that because I think you could set a bomb off and it would keep recording
22:36	bencahill	hehe
22:36	slef	but I was reminded today it does not like SDHC
22:36	bencahill	Ah, that sucks...
22:36		I think the only device I use that doesn't support it is my H2
22:37	slef	where do you upload videos to?
22:38	bencahill	slef: Normally mine are for playing on the computer or DVD. If uploading, YouTube.
22:39		Here's a simple video I took with one camera at our last youth orchestra concert: http://youtu.be/1oT9DXAvNg0
22:40	slef	I guess I may open a google account just to upload these there :-/
22:40	bencahill	slef: I like doing fun stuff like these, though: http://youtu.be/qNd8MuRG85M and http://youtu.be/GMTYJ3hFEdw
22:44	slef	bencahill: I'm going to have to leave those last two for later because I am currently failing to test webex
22:48		if anyone knows if it can work/be made to work on debian... help ;)
22:48		I mean: help! ;)
