Time Nick Message
00:00 jcamins Except that Plack returns a status of 200.
00:00 eythian oh, not helpful.
00:00 jcamins Nope.
00:08 drojf: http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]Starman_and_nginx
00:08 drojf: also, why are you awake?
00:11 wajasu jcamins: i am looking to test bug 8823
00:11 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=8823 normal, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, Needs Signoff , CatalogModuleRelink Creates Multiple Links between Bib and Auth record  ($9 RLIN)
00:11 jcamins wajasu: it's 3.8.x only.
00:11 wajasu so its fixed on master?
00:12 jcamins No, it just doesn't happen on master.
00:13 wajasu for someone moving from 3.0.1 to 3.10,  is there a script that needs to run to remove "machine generated" duplicate authority records. (when on e had auto generate and do allow).
00:13 jcamins No.
00:13 There is no script.
00:16 wajasu do we need a bug?  and a script?  for migrations.
00:17 jcamins There's a bug, somewhere.
00:18 That's not getting fixed in 3.10, though.
00:19 wajasu i think my 3.0 lib has tons of auth dups.  maybe generated each time a different biblio is catalogued for the same author.  for names, and subj headings, etc.
00:19 jcamins Certainly.
00:20 bug 7418
00:20 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7418 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, jcamins, ASSIGNED , Add heading flipper script
00:20 jcamins No.
00:20 bug 7419
00:20 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7419 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, julian.maurice, Needs Signoff , Add authority deduplication script
00:20 jcamins There's the bug.
00:20 But it's not a candidate for 3.10.
00:21 wajasu to risky?
00:21 jcamins Right.
00:22 melia left #koha
00:22 jcamins That's why you have the FirstMatch and LastMatch linker modules.
00:22 So you can work with a real-world authority file and not just an ideal one.
00:23 wajasu you mean one paid for/ subscribed from some outfit?
00:23 jcamins Meh. They're rarely perfect, just better.
00:25 wajasu if i wipe the auth records (all auto generated), and  did some sort of touch all biblios (that used your linker, i think i would be in good shape).
00:26 jcamins I am not sure there is a script for automatically regenerating all records.
00:27 I don't remember how low level touch_all_biblios.pl is.
00:27 wajasu i'll look it at.
00:28 jcamins However, that's unnecessary for testing bug 8823.
00:28 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=8823 normal, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, Needs Signoff , CatalogModuleRelink Creates Multiple Links between Bib and Auth record  ($9 RLIN)
00:28 jcamins Just create a new record with a new heading.
00:28 wajasu but it would have to remove all the $9 rlin links, right ?
00:28 i think i have a handle on 8823.
00:28 jcamins No.
00:29 If you have a new record, it won't have any links to begin with.
00:29 wajasu are the $9 links inthe biblio marcxml?
00:30 jcamins Yes.
00:30 Also in the marc.
00:30 wajasu so wouldn
00:30 jcamins However, what is it you're trying to do?
00:31 wajasu clean out all the autogenerated auth records.  and reprocess the bibs, so they regen auth records without dups.
00:31 jcamins Okay, why don't you just delete all the authority records then?
00:33 wajasu ok.  that makes sense.   are the authority links in the  1) auth records, pointing to the biblio records  OR 2) the biblio records contain links pointing to the auth records?
00:33 jcamins 2.
00:34 wajasu those are all $9RLIN fields, correct?
00:34 jcamins Right.
00:34 wajasu if i delete the auth records,  don't i need to clean up the dangling $9 links?
00:34 or does your linker code do that for me?
00:35 jcamins Run link_bibs_to_authorities.
00:35 (after deleting the records)
00:35 wajasu well, thats the script i was looking for :)
00:36 so i don't need a dedup script, since all my auth recs were machine generated.
00:36 jcamins Ah.
00:37 libsysguy joined #koha
00:40 wajasu new question: when an auth record is updated, does koha overwrite certain authority managed fields (names, subject headings), or add repeatable  fields to enrich the biblio?
00:40 jcamins It depends how you have the syspref dontmerge set.
00:41 wajasu good answer.
00:42 i think i am going to do a test run, and see if whats on master has all the things my librarian is mift about.
00:42 hopefully fixed.
00:47 does the authority search popup, show all the possible matches including the "braoder_headings" ones?
00:47 jcamins No.
00:47 That would be equivalent to ignoring any user input after the first time they hit space.
00:49 wajasu when i do the migration, i need to run the remove_biblioitems script right after the webinstaller runs, correct?
00:50 jcamins Around then, yes.
00:51 wajasu i really, appreciate all the work you are doing with search, and the free advice. thanks.
00:52 jcamins You're welcome.
00:52 eythian: can I specify multiple --keyring options for pbuilder?
00:53 eythian I don't know
00:53 jcamins Nor do I.
00:53 I will experiment.
00:53 eythian though, you could combine the keys into a single keyring perhaps.
00:53 wajasu FYI: another up and coming indexer: sphinx - http://sphinxsearch.com/docs/1[…]/ref-indexer.html
00:54 but i am hopeful that ICU is coming along.
00:54 jcamins Nice thing about having a fast system with lots of RAM and a good internet connection: it probably doesn't matter if it takes a while.
00:56 eythian The keyring option passes on to debootstrap I think, if that's helpful.
00:57 wajasu note: the sphinx - maintains the "full index" like zebra would, and also keeps a small recent index that is quick and runs sub minute, and queries go against the both indexes, i believe.
00:58 jcamins Right now I'm trying it without the keyring for debian.k-c.org, since I'm not actually sure I'm configuring the pbuilder environment correctly.
00:59 Looks like it's working.
01:00 Though, you said you build packages against wheezy, didn't you?
01:01 eythian my pbuilder env is, yeah.
01:01 I should change that, and have two running for testing purposes.
01:03 jcamins I'm going to continue building against squeeze.
01:03 eythian OK
01:04 * jcamins knew you were waiting with bated breath to hear what he was doing.
01:04 eythian you're testing my koha-shell command!
01:04 :)
01:05 jcamins No, right now I'm setting up my new development server.
01:08 Ugh.
01:08 251MB.
01:08 Uploading this is not going to work.
01:21 user110 new dev server?
01:21 sun server?
01:22 jcamins user110: no, I set up a server for RMing which I'll be using to push to the sun server.
01:22 user110 ic
01:22 jcamins user110: why "user110"?
01:22 user110 at home
01:22 jcamins Ah.
01:22 eythian 000-109 were taken?
01:22 jcamins Shouldn't you be doing something... not involving #koha?
01:23 rambutan actually I just installed viking gps a couple of nights ago--I'm playing with it
01:23 and this is what I do for fun anyway lots of the time
01:24 * jcamins will wandering off for dinner and Star Trek in a few minutes.
01:24 jcamins Shari got home about ten minutes ago.
01:25 rambutan I have some vague notion that Shari works in a library?
01:25 jcamins Nope. Actually she's been extra-ing a lot recently.
01:25 (for TV shows, ads, that sort of thing)
01:26 rambutan extra-ing? actress?
01:26 ic
01:28 jcamins She's not an actress, generally speaking. She decided to try extraing to see what it was like, and has been really enjoying it.
01:30 rambutan I was in a couple of Korean movies and Korean TV ads. It was interesting.
01:32 eythian http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0790724/ <-- and you can end up like the famous Alexander Rhodes, ranking above Tom Cruise.
01:35 rambutan I might actually have to go see that.

02:40 wahanui OK, eythian.
04:12 mtompset joined #koha
04:12 mtompset Greetings, #koha.
04:28 wajasu hi
04:29 * wajasu migrating 3.0 to master
04:30 loaded db, ran webinstaller, ran remove_items_from_biblioitems.pl
04:50 cait joined #koha
04:51 mtompset Shouldn't you run that script BEFORE the webinstaller?
04:51 I'm just asking. I don't know.
04:51 Greetings, cait.
04:52 cait hi mtompset
04:52 mtompset 5 hours to till the meeting.
04:52 (roughly)
04:54 cait yeah
04:54 soon...
04:56 vimal joined #koha
04:59 vimal joined #koha
05:04 mtompset Greetings, vimal!
05:04 Glad to see you figured out how to get here. :)
05:09 I guess he's got a bad internet connection. :(
05:18 sophie_m joined #koha
05:25 cait morning sophie_m - up early :)
05:26 sophie_m Hello cait, so do you :-)
05:27 today i'm a working from home so computer is on early, but I am not really ready
05:27 rangi lucky no webcam then!! :)
05:28 evening all
05:28 BobB hi rangi, good evening everyone
05:30 cait hi all :)
05:30 sophie_m: same for me - still at home
05:30 and not ready :)
05:31 BobB I have a question ...
05:32 A librarian has noted that in Circulation, you can check out only by bar code (which is true).  She wants to be able to check out by Title.  Any comments?
05:33 I think the situation is that the patron is on the phone, and the librarian wants to check the book out and mail it to the patron.  She may not have the item to hand.
05:33 rangi would need significant amount of work
05:33 cait I think by title would be quite dangerous
05:34 rangi title is not stored at item level
05:34 cait why not search for the right item and place it in the cart? then print a list?
05:34 or put a hold on it with the search for hold feature from the patron account?
05:34 rangi we would have to slow circ down by checking the marc
05:34 and as we all know title is not unique
05:34 cait there are lots of books with similar or the same title even but different content, I think it would be difficult to get the right one
05:35 rangi (not even thinking about mulitple copies of the same thing, but often 2 distinct books have the same title)
05:35 BobB Yes cait, if a bib had two items, you could check one out and send the other to the patron, very easily I would think.
05:36 yes rangi, I see that too.
05:36 cait what if they have different itemtypes?
05:36 rangi yep, what circ rules to apply
05:36 BobB wow!
05:36 cait which would the system choose?
05:36 BobB So I could argue to her that it is not usual practice, and has a number of risks
05:36 rangi yep
05:37 cait I think I would just open 2 tabs if she wants to do that - one for circ and one for the search and then search my tittles and copy the barcodes over
05:37 rangi and would slow circulation down
05:37 so would be unlikely to ever be accepted as a feature
05:37 so would have to be a locally maintained mod
05:37 BobB Thank you both, that's been incredibly useful.  Glad I asked.
05:38 rangi (koha couldnt know if something was a barcode or title)
05:38 so would have to search both
05:38 BobB We don't do locally maintained mods.  Cait's idea of two tabs is a winner, in my mind.
05:38 rangi yep
05:38 cait suggesting some workarounds
05:38 rangi @quote get 123
05:38 huginn rangi: Quote #123: "rangi: #thingsihavelearnt if there is a mad scheme a library somewhere will be doing it ... except madder" (added by wizzyrea at 09:20 PM, March 30, 2011)
05:39 BobB Very cool.  Thank you.
05:40 cait BobB: we got the meeting today - but I guess it's too late for Australia?
05:41 BobB No, we hope to be there.
05:41 rangi earlier than here :)
05:41 cait ah right :)
05:41 how much time difference is it between australia and nz?
05:41 BobB We have to go and visit a young lady in hospital, but hope to be back on time.
05:42 rangi are you on daylight saving there?
05:42 Its been two hours, but is it three now?
05:42 Or one?  which way is the world spinning?
05:42 rangi yep
05:42 11pm for us
05:42 BobB Ok, so its still two hours difference.  Cool.
05:42 cait ah
05:46 * magnuse waves

06:42 we should recruit some more bug wranglers
06:42 * cait eyes magnuse again
06:42 * magnuse ducks
06:44 mtompset bug wranglers?
06:44 What's the job description?
06:44 magnuse well, there isn't really one
06:45 but it's basically keeping an eye on bugzilla
06:45 look out for duplicates
06:45 encourage people to sign off etc
06:45 do the occasional cleaning, marking bugs resolved
06:46 or at least that's my take on it
06:46 encourage people to take part in global bug squashing days
06:46 mveron++ for volunteering as wrangler
06:47 cait mtompset: it's les formal than some other roles I would say
06:47 magnuse definitely
06:48 julian_m joined #koha
06:48 mtompset Well, Vimal was here earlier. I know he hopes to attend the meeting today.
06:49 cait have to run bbl

07:18 kf hi drojf
07:18 drojf: bug wrangler? :)
07:22 laurence joined #koha
07:22 kf .... and he is bug wrangling again... that norwegian developer...
07:24 rangi magnuse++
07:26 drojf kf: should really be doing more uni, less playing with koha, so i'd prefer to not label myself bug wrangler. will have a look at the bugtracker anyway ;)
07:26 kf you will end up doing it anyway
07:27 so why not have a nice and shiny label? ;)
07:27 * mtompset grins, "I like the way you think, kf."
07:27 rangi hmmm
07:27 reiveune: are you on the main koha list?
07:28 reiveune rangi: mmmh , good question
07:28 * kf got lots of mails in french - someone on vacation maybe?
07:28 drojf yes, answering every mail
07:28 reiveune koha devel, yes
07:28 kf I got 4
07:29 drojf i got 3
07:29 rangi yeah

07:30 drojf that will be a lot of emails
07:31 reiveune i need to go
07:31 bye
07:31 reiveune left #koha
07:31 mib_y3tnsg joined #koha
07:31 * magnuse was mostly generating some numbers for http://div.libriotech.no/kohachange/ - a little something that tracks the changes since last time it was run, just for fun
07:31 rangi cool
07:31 darn
07:31 kf hm?
07:31 rangi hmmm, gaetan_B you speak french right
07:31 hehe
07:32 kf google translate?:)
07:32 rangi yep, it is trainig until may 2013
07:32 according to google
07:32 right nomail it is
07:34 gaetan_B rangi: yes, i do what is it ?
07:35 rangi scrollback i pasted some french in the channel
07:35 gaetan_B i haven't seen a french email coming on the lists...
07:35 kf gaetan_B: you will get plenty when you happen to answer an email there :)
07:35 rangi it seems to only be sent to ppl who email the main koha list
07:35 ;)
07:35 mib_y3tnsg hello to everyone
07:35 rangi google translate tells me it says they will be away until may 2013, just wanted to check that was really what it said
07:36 gaetan_B oh yes i saw the above message, that's what it's aying yes, i guess they should be redirected, if we don't have a way to reach this peron before may 2013 :d
07:36 (i hadn't looked higher before...)
07:37 rangi thanks
07:38 drojf hmm. berlin wants to have "free" wifi in the city. done by private companies. paid by either ads or user data ("like facebook"). great :( not that there is freifunk which is a free grassroots movement, but THEY (and every other citizen) get prevented from sharing wifi by judges making them accountable for everything that happens over an unencrypted network. of course we can deregulate that for companies to make money
07:39 berlin--
07:40 mtompset I just read "User management: Koha manages your users, including integration with systems like LDAP, Radius, Active Directory and SAML, to allow single sign-on." (http://onl.org.nz/koha-features) ... does anyone know about this SAML stuff?
07:41 mib_y3tnsg do you know if the koha can be updated without problems from version 3.04 to 3.8.5 stable, backing up first mysql and then restore it in the 3.8.5 stable version without problems?
07:42 mtompset mib_y3tnsg: There's a script to run, can't recall the name of it... How did you install 3.8.5? What OS are you using?
07:43 I would rather recommend exporting all the MARC from the old version, and reimporting it. It's less technical.
07:43 mib_y3tnsg I have debian
07:43 rangi yep you have to have a saml server set up
07:43 mtj mib_y3tnsg, short answer… yes :)
07:44 rangi saml is a pita
07:44 mtompset Let's say I have saml set up.
07:44 (which I think I do)
07:44 How do I authenticate/log in with it?
07:44 tajoli joined #koha
07:45 mib_y3tnsg I haven't install yet 3.8.5, I just want first to learn if there is any problem with mysql
07:45 drojf mtompset mib_y3tnsg exporting all marc does not really help with settings, user data etc
07:45 rangi saml sets a cookie, you have to check that, its similar to the X509 stuff
07:46 mtompset Is there a patch for Koha to do this?
07:46 rangi mtompset: no
07:46 because its not a general thingy
07:46 its different depending on your saml implementation
07:46 mtompset Neither is LDAP or CAS. ;)
07:46 rangi both of those are far more general
07:47 and have standards that people actually adhere too
07:48 mtompset So the SAML integration was a custome one off?
07:48 drojf mib_y3tnsg: importing into 3.8.5 should be working. you need to run remove_items_from_biblioitems.pl afterwards and i think
07:48 rangi i think 3 different ones
07:49 why?
07:49 mib_y3tnsg <mtompset>: Can you post a link of it?
07:49 mtompset I have to figure out how to do SAML for us. :)
07:49 debian?
07:49 wahanui debian is what most people use and there are good manuals and even packages for that
07:49 mtompset packages?
07:49 wahanui somebody said packages was at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian
07:49 mtompset mib_y3tnsg: I'd following those instructions.
07:50 (since you are using Debian)
07:50 rangi https://code.google.com/p/modmellon/
07:50 has a deb
07:52 mtompset But Koha is a service provider... the mod_mellon interacts with the IdP for the apache requests?
07:52 rangi yep
07:52 and it sets env vars
07:52 that koha can use to see if a user is authenticated
07:53 mib_y3tnsg http://kohageek.pbworks.com/w/[…]/31795398/upgrade     This guide, is it correct to follow?
07:54 paul_p joined #koha
07:54 mtompset No, mib_y3tnsg.
07:54 rangi no
07:55 Oak joined #koha
07:57 mtompset So, then, rangi... how does an upgrade work? Did you have to modify Auth.pm?
07:57 rangi nope cos the x509 stuff deals with env vars
07:59 mib_y3tnsg so,is there a correct guide to follow in update koha and also keep the database as it is after the update?
08:00 mtompset packages?
08:00 wahanui rumour has it packages is at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian
08:01 mtompset Koha is pretty smart about not blowing away data.
08:01 Install the packages according to these instructions (since you probably used an ancient LiveCD)
08:01 and then run the script it tells you while installing.
08:02 That's my suggestion.
08:02 mib_y3tnsg <mtompset> ok, thanks
08:03 drojf you're missing the point where the old data gets magically inserted into that installation.
08:05 mtompset Right... because the DB isn't going to be called koha_<instance name>
08:05 Thanks for pointing that out, drojf.
08:06 After doing the koha-create command, you'll need to copy the data from the old DB into the new one.
08:07 mib_y3tnsg <mtompset> the script that you said before, that i have to run it while installing, is it appear during installing the new version or simultaneously run it with installation. The script you said, where can i find it?
08:07 mtompset once you do the "sudo apt-get install koha-common"
08:08 at some point in time a screen saying something about upgrading from 3.2 to 3.4 run a script.
08:08 mib_y3tnsg ok
08:08 drojf (09:46:55) drojf: mib_y3tnsg: importing into 3.8.5 should be working. you need to run remove_items_from_biblioitems.pl afterwards and i think
08:08 that script
08:08 mtompset if he does a packages install the script is named differently.
08:08 drojf oh. it is?
08:09 mtompset koha-upgrade-to-3.4
08:09 Had to look it up.
08:09 rangi the script is the same
08:09 mtompset Yes, but named differently. :)
08:09 rangi the packages just have that one as well, which does the remove items
08:10 and then rebuilds zebra
08:10 no, not named differently
08:10 as well as
08:10 mtompset oh, okay.
08:10 * mtompset points at rangi, "Expert!"
08:10 mtompset Librarian colleague having issues... got to go deal with them.
08:18 mib_y3tnsg the upgrade would be in steps? for example, from 3.0 to 3.2 and then 3.2 to 3.4 and then 3.4 to 3.6 and finally 3.6 to 3.8 or can I upgrade from 3.0 to 3.8 at once?
08:22 kf reminder - good idea :)
08:27 gaetan_B kf: tell me what you think... in tables presenting items, the location is usually displayed under the homebranch. I tend to think it would make more sense to have it under the holdingbranch. Or do you see a reason why it wouldn't ?
08:28 kf hm
08:28 we can not be sure the location exists at the holdingbranch
08:28 I would think homebranch is the right one
08:28 does it display both now? :(
08:29 gaetan_B my idea is that if the item is not located in it's homebranch, then the homebranch location doesn't make sense
08:29 to the user
08:29 kf what I thin is that a library getting the book from another library is not going to change the location to their own - because it will be sent back once the hold has been filled
08:29 gaetan_B and the holdingbranch might/would have locations on it's own
08:29 kf it might be different for floating collections - but I think most of the time it will get sent back
08:30 gaetan_B i see, it depends on the usage indeed
08:32 kf yeah, I think it's one of those 123 cases
08:34 drojf mib_y3tnsg: what i would try: do an installation of koha-common (3.8.5)  like described on the wiki. create an instance (koha create <instancename>), open the staff client and run the web installer. when that is finished, try to import your sql dump into that new instance. the instance and the database user will be named koha_<instancename>, so if you did "koha-create koha", it is called koha_koha. so you would do "mysql -u koha_koha -p koha_koha < myda
08:34 gaetan_B hrmmf i'm not really satisfied with this, but i don't see myself asking for one more syspref just to cover this...
08:36 kf gaetan_B: yeah :(
08:36 gaetan_B maybe i could do some javascript to move it around
08:36 kf I think you could
08:36 and if it does not work well, add id's
08:36 well classes
08:36 because we have more than one location in an item table, but the same :)
08:36 gaetan_B actually there are classes already :)
08:36 kf :)
08:37 paul_p_ joined #koha
08:37 kf good morning paul_p
08:37 gaetan_B it's a span with class"shelvingloc"
08:37 and the td also have classes, so i'll give it a shot

08:44 gerundio joined #koha
08:44 monirul hello
08:44 wahanui hey, monirul
08:45 monirul I have installed koha 3.8 in debian squeeze
08:46 Our library is now using libsys(LsPremia)
08:46 kf hi monirul
08:46 I don't know the system - where are you from?
08:46 monirul from Kolkata India
08:47 kf ah nice, I am from germany
08:47 brb
08:47 monirul great
08:47 can you assist me to migrate data from libsys to koha
08:48 second thing is how can i delete all catalogue record
08:49 mveron joined #koha
08:49 mib_y3tnsg <drojf> do you know if is there any problem with incompatibilty in database?
08:50 monirul libsys uses oracle
08:51 but it is not possible to find out the linkages between the tables
08:51 mveron Hi #koha
08:52 drojf monirul: a complete data migration from one system to another is nothing that people here will be able to walk you through here on irc. all help here is done by volunteers donating there time for free. you may consider asking on the mailing list of someone has experience with migrating from the system you are using or ask one of the support companies to do it for you (as a paid service). if you choose to do it yourself it might be a lot of work. it is d
08:53 cjh Hi mveron
08:53 mveron Hi cjh
08:53 drojf mib_y3tnsg: the upgrade schema and upgrade to 3.4 stuff should take care of that
08:53 hi mveron
08:53 mveron hi drojf
08:54 * mveron would like to see drojf as co-bugwrangler  :-)
08:55 kf drojf: see, mveron supports me :)
08:55 * magnuse too
08:55 kf mveron: I have been trying to persuade magnuse too.... but he is being stubborn :)
08:55 mveron kf: Of course :-)
08:56 ... I mean supporting...
08:56 drojf i'll do it if magnuse does it :P
08:56 cjh heh
08:56 kf hi cjh :)
08:56 magnuse gah
08:56 but i won't have time to contribute much...
08:56 cjh kf: hey kf :)
08:57 drojf magnuse: same for me
08:57 kf I think if you keep what you are doing now it should be fine
08:57 keep doing
08:58 * mveron would feel better in a bug wranglr team...
08:58 drojf are you the only one right now?
08:59 magnuse gah, sign me up then
08:59 mveron drojf: I suppose so
08:59 kf yay!
08:59 cjh awesome :)
09:00 mveron magnuse ++
09:00 drojf guess i'm in then too ;)
09:00 kf magnuse++ and drojf++
09:00 mveron drojf ++
09:00 kf yep you are
09:00 magnuse drojf: yay!
09:00 drojf :)
09:01 i consider mveron the bug wrangler manager i can hide behind if i don't have time :P
09:02 gaetan_B in marc21, does the statement of responsibility in 245c contain all the responsibilities ?
09:02 or just the main responsibility ?
09:03 kf hm I think it's repeatable - maybe look at the examples in the documentation?
09:04 http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd260.html
09:04 drojf loc says "First statement of responsibility and/or remaining data in the field that has not been subfielded by one of the other subfield codes."

09:05 kf sorry :)

09:05 I was working with 260 yesterday, guess they are still stuck in my brain
09:07 vfernandes joined #koha
09:08 vfernandes hi Koha community :D
09:08 cjh hey vfernandes
09:08 vfernandes i need your help to build one report if it's possible
09:09 the report needs to list the items which the library was changed
09:09 davidnind joined #koha
09:11 mtompset Has anyone here experienced the item section of for new acquisitions from an external source being empty with no add/clear?
09:11 vfernandes for example the cataloguer changes the holdingbranch or the homebranch the item will appear in the report
09:12 kf mtompset: and your quantity is not writeable?
09:12 vfernandes: I am not sure if items has a timestamp
09:12 vfernandes: or if the catalogueing logs if turned on wouuld notice the change
09:12 mtompset I don't know.
09:13 kf you will have to dig and test a bit maybe
09:14 vfernandes the action log saves the operation but through it I can't say if the change was a library change
09:14 that's my problem
09:15 kf if you want to know if the branch has been changed
09:16 I think you have to check if you can get that from the cataloguing logs
09:16 the log has to be activated in the system preference
09:16 ah, but if you already checked, then their might be no way currently
09:17 vimal Hi All I am vimal , I am here to discuss about release of Koha Live CD
09:18 mtompset Greetings, vimal.
09:18 vimal Thank u
09:18 mtompset Welcome.. The meeting is in another 40 minutes.
09:18 vimal ic
09:18 I came early !!
09:18 mtompset Early is good.
09:18 kf it's 40 minutes to the meeting :)
09:19 vimal I will wait
09:19 drojf Letters.pm says "# If we have any attachments we should encode then into the body." -- what attachments would koha send?
09:19 mtompset You can get to know the other major Koha contributors and solutions to various problems while waiting. :)
09:20 vimal ok
09:20 davidnind left #koha
09:21 mtompset For example, jcamins_away (he'll probably come back just before the meeting) is the proposed release manager for 3.12
09:22 kf drojf: overdues has an attachement sent to the library when there are no email addresses for the patrons
09:22 so you can use that to mail them
09:22 mtompset kf is the proposed Quality Assurance Manager for 3.12
09:22 kf drojf: and the cart and lists send attachements I think - at leat the cart does
09:23 drojf ah i see. thanks kf
09:24 mtompset mtj is up for Installation Documentation Manager and a role on the Quality Assurance Team.
09:24 vfernandes thanks kf anyway for the help ;)
09:25 mtompset eythian is the guy that packages everything up nicely for the koha-common packages.
09:25 VM Manager?
09:25 What role is that?
09:27 anyways... all will make sense in 30 minutes or so. :)
09:27 paul_p left #koha
09:27 cjh :)
09:30 mtompset Such a dramatic exit. :)
09:33 eythian_ joined #koha
09:34 kf mtompset?
09:34 wahanui mtompset is disliking the silent warnings flooding his error logs.
09:35 mtompset No, can't change the quantity as far as I know.
09:35 I was just trying to look at the template file.
09:37 kf maybe a js error
09:37 ?
09:37 mtompset Not sure...
09:37 because somehow it works on my QA system, but not my live.
09:38 So, I need to figure out what the difference is.
09:38 kf accreateitem setting?
09:38 acq framework not having fields?
09:40 mtompset acq framework has fields.
09:40 and both place an order
09:41 kf check for javascript errors?
09:41 and has it a 952 with some subfields?
09:41 mtompset how?
09:41 kf firebug
09:41 mtompset Hmm...
09:42 oleonard joined #koha
09:42 mtompset have to look up what he was trying to do.
09:44 You have to be kidding me! I blame Firefox. :P
09:44 I did what he did and it worked for me.
09:45 I just checked the about Firefox, and now it's downloading a new version.
09:45 Greetings, oleonard! :)
09:46 oleonard Firefox's about Firefox is like Schroedinger's cat
09:47 mtompset It's alive and dead simultaneously?
09:48 oleonard Observing it changes its state
09:49 mtompset I'm about to restart firefox... here comes a bump!
09:50 mtompset joined #koha
09:50 mtompset Greetings again, #koha.
09:50 So, kf, you might be on to something.
09:50 bgkriegel joined #koha
09:51 mtompset Because it seems strange... item appears empty, and expands  to be full after.
09:51 cjh is there a wiki page somewhere on what 'bug wrangling' entails?
09:51 mtompset if that is triggered by java script, then perhaps there is a javascript error.
09:51 ColinC joined #koha
09:52 kf cjh: not a formal page no - magnuse explained a bit earlier today

09:55 mtompset "ask for automated testing whenever possible. " --- that sounds like jcamins_away. ;)
09:55 cjh mveron: kf thanks :)
09:56 davidnind joined #koha
09:56 magnuse yay for automated testing!
09:57 mtompset i'm tempted to write a "click every link once" test.
09:57 magnuse mtompset: that could be done!
09:58 druthb joined #koha
09:58 mtompset And it would be useful too.
09:58 There are a surprising number of "silent warnings" flooding error logs that could be caught.

10:43 drojf or we could vote for kf
10:43 :P
10:43 kf I sleep sometimes :)
10:43 * druthb suggests that kf rocks that job.
10:43 drojf kf: then stop that
10:43 mtompset drojf++ # excellent idea
10:43 kf but I am willing to do it in my comfy timezones :)
10:43 mveron kf ++
10:43 tcohen kf++
10:43 * oleonard would like to give kf the option to sleep through some meetings
10:44 slef kf: so you need deputies, especially for the 3am ones?
10:44 mtj comfy timezones only, please
10:44 kf yes, especially that one
10:44 drojf i'd vote for meetings only at kf-compatible times, but i may biased
10:44 BobB Is Brooke unwilling?
10:44 slef anyone willing to cover 02:00:00 +0000 ?
10:44 kf she didn't sign up this time, I am not sure
10:44 I woudl say leave the position open
10:45 and see who is around to be doing it
10:45 slef In winter, I'd do it when my schedule permits.
10:45 kf doesn't have to be formalized really?
10:45 rangi i dont think it does
10:45 slef kf: it would be good to have a group willing to do it. We've had "oh it's a meeting - who wants to chair?" before.
10:45 kf and I meant comfy meeting times.. of course :)
10:45 mtompset Since there technically are no names, we can only note that kf has offered to do it for one that are timezone friendly for her.
10:46 slef but no rush - we currently don't have a pool
10:46 group
10:46 not poo
10:46 not pool!
10:46 * slef goes to buy a new keyboard
10:46 talljoy ha
10:46 mtompset slef++ # nice typos. :)
10:46 kf ok
10:46 I see too more topics on the meeting schedule
10:46 slef hey, that's how I got this nick :-/
10:46 kf we are running 45 mins now
10:47 slef let's get a move on!
10:47 :)
10:47 kf I think we can try to do them fast but I am not sure what Translation file is about and hwo added it
10:47 and I have a nice smelling pizza on my desk - we have to make this fast ;)
10:47 * druthb is curious about that, too.
10:47 rangi and the next one after that we need jcamins for
10:47 kf so if noone knows, I would suggest skipping it
10:47 yes
10:47 tcohen We should start talking about Translation file
10:47 s
10:48 druthb fredericd and I need to plot to get together soon, but we'll do that outside a meeting.
10:48 mtompset if noone knows, yes skip.
10:48 cjh I was wondering waht that was about, I guess no one knows..
10:48 what..
10:48 slef Brooke added it
10:48 kf so I suggest we close the meeting and jcamins_away/paul_p can dicsuss schedules later?
10:48 tcohen bgkriegel
10:48 ?
10:48 rangi picking a time for next meeting
10:48 bgkriegel perhaps somthing about the tranlation of the manual
10:48 kf druthb: maybe have a translator's meeting sometime?
10:48 magnuse looks like Broole added the point about Translation Files
10:48 paul_p__ I've added the branching topic, after discussing of it with jcamins_away and I agree it would be better with jcamins_away
10:48 druthb good idea.
10:48 kf ok
10:48 paul_p__ I'll send a mail to koha-devel about that
10:48 kf so I am closing
10:48 slef Brooke added it 20 September - please could people look at the agenda before the meeting and ask about unclear stuff :)
10:48 kf can someone help please to find the time for the next meeting?
10:49 mtompset Isn't it +8 hours from this meeting?
10:49 vimal Dear Friends, I m leaving. My office is going to close. Bye all. I will try my best to develop a easy and ready to use Live Koha CD
10:49 drojf it's the early one
10:49 i think
10:49 rangi its 02:00 UTC
10:49 * druthb goes back to bed for a little longer.

10:52 oleonard Let's try to add apologies to the wiki entry so that the agenda can be revised and shortened if necessary
10:52 kf oleonard: good suggestion
10:52 talljoy tcohen: druthb left.

10:53 oleonard slef, if no one is going to show up the agenda might need to be revised to exclude more important business like votes
10:53 tcohen @later tell druthb we need to appoint a Translation meeting, as the translation of manual was not addressed in th egeneral meeting
10:53 huginn tcohen: The operation succeeded.
10:53 magnuse ooh, pizza...

11:45 nengard ?
11:45 mtompset Your role.
11:46 nengard oh :)
11:46 well paul_p did tell me it was mine until I died :)
11:46 mtompset Or until someone else who loves to document and does it better than you (is that even possible?!) comes along.
11:46 kf back :)
11:47 mtompset How was the pizza?
11:47 What kind was it?
11:48 Perhaps releases should be named after pizza types. That would be much harder than cookies, jcamins_away. ;)
11:50 kf it was hawaii
11:50 ham and pineapple
11:50 and it was slightly cold ;)
11:50 drojf -1 for pizzanames
11:51 kf yeah, to limited
11:51 cookies!
11:51 wahanui Cookies are delicious delicacies
11:51 drojf cookies!
11:51 wahanui Cookies are delicious delicacies
11:53 drojf what is a good way to trigger sending something to message_queue? fake an overdue or something?
11:53 kf checkout
11:53 is what I do
11:54 or hold notices
11:54 easier than overdues
11:55 drojf ah makes sense. do i have to enable something to send messages? i did not really find a syspref for that (only enhanced messages). i have koha-email-disable set, not sure if that makes a difference for filling the table
11:56 kf oh rangi forgot my agreed! :)
11:56 or only the chair can do it
11:56 * kf is looking at the meeting logs to see where she messed up
11:56 kf drojf: hm I think it shouldn't
11:57 but you have t add an email address to the patron account and activate hte messages
11:57 for the patron
11:58 drojf adding an email for my patron was an idea i just had :D activate messages per patron??
11:58 kf yep
11:58 enhanced messages on
11:58 and then you can set a standard for the patron category
11:58 but the standard will not beapplied to existing patrons
11:58 so you have to check the checkboxes for the messages there too
12:00 drojf err i thought without the enhanced messages it would use what i set up at item circulation alerts?
12:04 NateC joined #koha
12:04 kf hm
12:04 I am not sure what circulation alerts does really
12:04 probably make sure you didn'td eactivate everything there
12:05 and enhanced messages on means you can send checkout slips, hold messages etc. - it's needed for those
12:05 drojf ok then the description of that syspref does not make any sense
12:06 allow                                                                                   patrons to choose which notices they receive and  when they receive them. Note that this only applies to certain kinds of  notices.
12:06 maybe it does that too, but it does a lot more
12:06 kf hm yeah
12:06 it's also the trigger in general
12:07 drojf that is of some significance too maybe ;)

12:08 paul_p: is it wifi oder the client?
12:09 drojf ok tried to send a message. and errored because i broke it :)
12:12 mtompset As long as you know how to fix it, no problems. :)
12:14 paul_p kf = the wifi (& maybe some tests I made with thunderbird IRC. I'm back to xchat, there is a major lack in thunderbird = no notification in case of someone yelling you on a channel !!!)
12:14 drojf paul_p: YOU WOULD NOT WANT TO MISS THE YELLING!!!
12:14 paul_p dracoling hehe ;-)

12:19 kf was only testing your client :)

12:25 drojf ah. would maybe help to have gnupg keys present on the dev machine if i want to use them for email encryption … my brain is very special today
12:26 * oleonard arrives to find that jcamins, having succeeded in his bloodless coup, has laid waste to all before him and built a dark tower to his own tyranny.
12:26 jcamins_away lol
12:26 drojf jcamins?
12:26 wahanui rumour has it jcamins is running for release manager for 3.12 and a his work on authorities is amazing
12:26 drojf what happened to blind-sided by ignorance? :P
12:27 jcamins drojf: kf was offended.
12:32 * magnuse can now easily make the digital signs hideous with http://jquerymobile.com/themeroller/

13:20 Callender joined #koha
13:20 magnuse oleonard: i suspect jcamins_away has a plan for that
13:21 oleonard But we must not cast our gaze directly upon the eye of jcamins_away lest the eye turn its gaze back upon us
13:25 * magnuse runs in terror
13:34 * wajasu migrating my 3.0 koha to master, to see whats what
13:35 khall general questions, should an item that was transferred incorrectly be allowed to fill a hold? At the moment, that appears to be what Koha is doing. On top of that, clicking ignore does not prompt to transfer the item back ( as it would if the item couldn't fill any holds )
13:40 gmcharlt left #koha
13:53 maximep joined #koha
14:03 BigRig joined #koha
14:03 oleonard khall: What do you mean by transferred incorrectly?
14:04 khall if I just check in LibraryA's item at LibraryB without having done a transfer.
14:04 I think this is intended behavior at this point
14:06 libsysguy joined #koha
14:07 oleonard Well, usually a transfer is initiated via the hold process...
14:07 But otherwise we don't manually transfer stuff, for instance.
14:08 khall this is just one of those odd edge cases.
14:08 wizzyrea khall - so basically the item was physically transferred without koha actually transferring it
14:08 so, human error?
14:08 khall wizzyrea: that is correct.
14:09 wizzyrea I think, that yes, an item in that situation, at least here
14:09 should fill a hold for a person it was intended for - it should (it does in 3.6 anyway) prompt to transit it on if it's not for a patron in library b
14:09 so say if you have a patron from library C, book is incorrectly transited to library b
14:10 when library b checks it in
14:10 it should prompt them to transit the book to C for the hold
14:10 now you definitely get what you describe
14:10 khall this isn't even a case of incorrect transfer, this is a case of no transfer.
14:10 wizzyrea when the processing at the home branch is absent - say they sent it but *told koha nothing about their action*
14:10 khall no koha transfer that is, but only physical transfer
14:11 wizzyrea how could you possibly expect koha to know what to do with an item if it hasn't been assigned to a patron
14:11 which is what proper transit at the home branch does
14:11 so if a physical transit happens, and koha doesn't know about it, yea, it'll still assign the book to someone else
14:12 because it sees that checkin as the "assigning" checkin
14:12 am I making sense?
14:12 I think this is the steve jobs problem - they're holding it wrong.
14:12 ;)
14:13 khall If I have no holds placed for the item, Koha will tell me to send it back to the home library. In the same situation, adding a hold causes Koha to ask the librarian if he or she wants to fill the hold with the item.
14:13 wizzyrea right, I think that's correct
14:13 khall If I then click ignore, it just gets checked in at this incorrect library
14:13 wizzyrea yep, that particular thing has been a problem for a long time
14:13 there's a bug for it
14:13 I think
14:14 khall that is what I'm working on right now, if there is a bug number for it, that would be very helpful.
14:14 wizzyrea dual checkins caus items to get stuck at the receiving branch
14:14 let me find it :)
14:14 khall thanks!
14:15 wizzyrea well you are likely looking at bug 8292, but that's not the one I'm thinking of
14:15 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=8292 major, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, NEW , clicking ignore on hold cancels transfer
14:15 wajasu link_FYI: running  link_bibs_to_authorities.pl has a  --test   mode,   but when i run it, if you have "AutoCreateauthorites" on, AddAuthority is called. (in master)
14:17 khall excellent!
14:17 wizzyrea bug 6226
14:17 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6226 major, P3, ---, koha.sekjal, NEW , Returning a misrouted item twice causes transit to correct receiving library to disappear
14:17 wizzyrea also probably related
14:17 bug 5826 also related
14:17 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=5826 normal, P5 - low, ---, kyle.m.hall, NEW , Returning a lost item at a library other than it's home does not trigger transit home
14:18 khall wizzyrea, I'd swear bug 6226 sounds like something I've already submitted a patch for
14:18 and there it is
14:18 nope thats not it
14:19 wizzyrea no that's lost - sorry
14:19 i'm still poking about :)
14:21 bug 7635 may be related, may be what you're looking at
14:21 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7635 critical, P5 - low, ---, kyle.m.hall, NEW , ignoring hold still marks it in transit
14:22 * wizzyrea wonders if it somehow got closed
14:23 * oleonard wonders how long it should take to import a 4 gig sql dump into mysql
14:23 wizzyrea hm, a long time depending on your hardware. :/
14:28 samuel joined #koha
14:28 samuel hi everybody
14:28 phasefx hey guys, on Koha 3.08.05.000, with the Inventory Tool, if I check the items.damaged Damaged checkbox (or any item status for that matter) and nothing else and then hit Submit, I get all items back and not just the ones that are damaged.  The SQL generated doesn't do any limiting either, but maybe the code intends to post-filter the results.  Am I doing something wrong, or did I find a bug?
14:29 khall patch for bug 8292 submitted. Should be an easy SO for anyone who wants to test it.
14:29 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=8292 major, P5 - low, ---, kyle, Needs Signoff , clicking ignore on hold cancels transfer

14:33 thingamabob

14:33 oleonard yes
14:33 wizzyrea slow disk prolly.
14:33 I have a plan?
14:33 jcamins oleonard: those bugs that are not ready for merging will get changed back to master.
14:33 wizzyrea boo.
14:33 jcamins wizzyrea has a plan?
14:34 oleonard wizzyrea is a Cylon, and they all have plans.
14:34 jcamins wizzyrea?
14:34 wahanui I LIKE SCIENCE and I GEEK KOHA
14:34 oleonard ...really convoluted mystical plans...
14:35 magnuse gah, n00b mistake: did some edits on master - is there a way to bring them over to a new branch?
14:36 jcamins magnuse: cherry-pick, or rename the branch.
14:36 (and this is why I don't have a branch called master)
14:36 wizzyrea lol.
14:36 I want to be a cylon.
14:36 oleonard: that really really made me laugh.
14:36 Oak joined #koha
14:38 magnuse rename it is - thanks jcamins
14:38 wizzyrea wizzyrea?
14:38 wahanui i think wizzyrea is a Cylon, and they all have plans.
14:38 * wizzyrea nods
14:38 laughs hysterically
14:40 wizzyrea oh oh can I be a number 3?
14:40 * mtompset chuckles, "Do you really want to be a number 3? It's not much better than 1 or 2."
14:41 wizzyrea i suspect you have not watched much Battlestar Galactica :)
14:41 mtompset And why do they only model Cylons as integers?
14:42 Well, you are probably talking about the reboot version in recent years.
14:42 wizzyrea yes, I am :)
14:42 I tried to watch the old one
14:42 i really did.

14:43 * kf hides
14:43 peeks out
14:43 kf should we have a post about the release team voting on kc?
14:44 wizzyrea she's the visionary :)
14:44 27th :)
14:44 oleonard wizzyrea: You should have tried watching the original Battlestar Galactica when you were 7. It holds up much better.
14:44 * wizzyrea goes to find her TARDIS
14:44 kf soon! :)
14:48 mtompset Oooo... TARDIS. Which companion are you?
14:48 kf why companion?
14:48 wizzyrea that is an EXCELLENT question.
14:48 oleonard Why companion? :P
14:48 kf heh
14:48 wizzyrea lol.
14:48 * wizzyrea is not The Doctor.
14:49 kf maybe he gave you your own tardis?
14:49 wizzyrea hehe
14:50 I stole it from him. Seems logical.
14:50 j/k
14:50 * wizzyrea doesn't *really* live in a fantasy world.
14:51 mtompset no one can truly be the doctor... The human hybrids can't contain being a timelord, or something.

14:52 mtompset No... Donna.
14:52 wizzyrea well yea, donna
14:52 and Rose too
14:52 mtompset Rose?!
14:52 wizzyrea yea, end of season one, she looks into the vortex and dissolves the daleks?
14:53 after scattering Bad Wolf across the univers
14:53 with an e
14:53 oleonard Yeah but then the Doctor aborbs the energy from her to keep her from dying
14:53 mtompset Oh... that wasn't timelord.
14:53 That was TARDIS.
14:53 jcamins magnuse: why didn't you generate the browse list from the database, and have the user choose a locale for collation?
14:53 wizzyrea lol NERD FIGHT
14:53 ah thanks guys, I needed this this morning :)
14:54 magnuse jcamins: 'cause my way seemed easier :-)
14:54 jcamins magnuse: ah. Fair enough.
14:54 magnuse jcamins: counter patch welcome :-)
14:54 jcamins magnuse: I don't think I have any objection to the way you did it.
14:55 I was just surprised you'd write so much extra code. :P
14:55 magnuse it's an improvement, but it might lead you to "no patrons found"
14:55 hehe, yeah some bloat just snuck in there :-)
14:55 jcamins That happens now, too.
14:55 magnuse yeah, in regards to "no patrons found" it's not an improvement
14:56 it's an improvement when you are looking for names that start with something else than A-Z
14:56 jcamins Right.
14:56 Hence my lack of objection to the fact that it will still happen.
14:56 magnuse :-)
14:57 and with that i bid you all a fair time-of-the-day - see yas!

15:09 jcamins While oleonard said that, libsysguy was eating a sandwich, apparently.

15:10 sandwiches?

15:10 jcamins libsysguy: so it would seem. That's what you told us.

15:10 kf meh can't find it
15:11 jcamins The next thing that jumped out was libsysguy saying "and eating a sandwich, but that didn't cause the error" or words to that effect.
15:11 mtompset "...i guess that is irrelevant to the error"
15:12 http://irc.koha-community.org/[…]12-03-29#i_934613
15:12 libsysguy mmm sandwiches
15:12 still doesn't see how the sandwich comment relates to oleonards having sex comment
15:13 sandwiches =~ sex?
15:13 oleonard Okay yeah now I remember. My comment was perfectly logical in context.
15:13 jcamins It was.
15:13 mtompset bus-fresh. :)
15:14 libsysguy aww I still worked for UTT then
15:14 no wonder I was having a sandwich…I was probably stress eating
15:14 oleonard Mmmm... Stress sandwich.
15:15 kf did you have any sandwiches today?
15:15 * kf is just checking the stress status
15:16 wizzyrea that statement totally does make sense in context!
15:16 even better is what oleonard said just after that
15:16 "now when that quote comes up randomly I can try to insist I was talking about Zebra"
15:16 drojf lol
15:17 libsysguy no sandwiches today kf
15:17 just eggs and turkey dogs
15:17 jcamins drojf: did you see my Plack+Starman+nginx configuration?
15:17 wizzyrea lol this whole thing is off the hook.
15:17 http://irc.koha-community.org/[…]12-03-29#i_934570
15:17 drojf turkey dogs? i hope that is not what magnuse breeds
15:17 jcamins: yes, very cool. have not tried it, but i will
15:17 kf shiny happy zebras holding hands? :)
15:17 wizzyrea EXACTLY.
15:18 libsysguy only if they are low calorie substitutes to regular dogs
15:18 drojf ah no it's puffin dogs ;)
15:18 libsysguy i thought those were dragons
15:18 puffin dragons ;)
15:19 wizzyrea who would make a sausage out of a puffin?
15:19 libsysguy not I
15:21 mtompset How did you get from rangi being assaulted by smells that imply the wrong thing to zebra mating with solr, wizzyrea?
15:21 kf reread it
15:21 it's totally logical
15:22 mtompset starting from where?
15:22 wizzyrea well "totally logical" might be a stretch.
15:23 * wizzyrea has a strange mind
15:23 wizzyrea I think you have to go back a little bit
15:23 to the solr/zebra
15:23 http://irc.koha-community.org/[…]12-03-29#i_934559
15:24 kf wizzyrea: I like how your mind works :)
15:24 I will miss you in my afternoons
15:24 wizzyrea but you'll get me in the evening!
15:24 mtompset I missed oleonard's reply in my initial pass.
15:24 kf well late in the evening
15:24 and early in the mornings :)
15:24 so less wizzyrea time for us europeans
15:25 wizzyrea some might think that's ok :)
15:25 kf I don't - but still happy for you :)
15:26 mtompset Yes, congratulations on the upcoming move.
15:26 wizzyrea thanks :)
15:26 pretty excited - but so much to do
15:26 Oak why where are you going wizzyrea ?
15:26 wizzyrea and am having trouble focusing
15:27 mtompset She's going to NZ to work with ... i forget... one of those big koha support providers.
15:27 libsysguy Catalyst :p
15:27 mtompset Greetings, Oak!

15:32 libsysguy really she is always behind you…waiting…to migrate your data
15:33 mtompset Well, it's crazy late here, and I have to test out kf's idea regarding a problem we're experiencing tomorrow morning.

15:34 druthb @later tell tcohen I agree; we need a translation meeting fairly soon, to discuss the manual translation and plenty of other things.  I'd like to get a feel for what sorts of concerns are out there for us to address.  I'll figure something out, and announce it soon.
15:34 huginn druthb: The operation succeeded.
15:35 mtompset Have a good day (24 hour period) everyone! :)

15:38 wahanui i guess Oak is Arslan. I am a student doing masters in Library Science (2nd semester). I am a web developer and work in Joomla. or good
15:38 Oak kf leave early today. have coffee in a cafe somewhere.
15:39 druthb hm...
15:39 Oak :)
15:39 druthb wahanui: druthb?
15:39 wahanui you are TM for 3.12.  Now we know she's crazy.
15:39 jcamins Oak: good luck getting her to listen to you.
15:39 jcamins?
15:39 wahanui well, jcamins is running for release manager for 3.12 and a his work on authorities is amazing!
15:39 jcamins forget jcamins
15:39 wahanui jcamins: I forgot jcamins
15:39 Oak jcamins, I try ...
15:39 gaetan_B bye
15:39 jcamins jcamins is RM for 3.12, and just about the only one crazy enough to work on major projects in both authorities and search.
15:39 jcamins?
15:39 wahanui you are RM for 3.12, and just about the only one crazy enough to work on major projects in both authorities and search.

15:40 jcamins Awww.
15:40 kf drojf: I am slightly disppointed now :)
15:40 kf?
15:40 wahanui you are cait or really, really sweet. or <reply>she gives me memory loss or a holds expert.
15:40 jcamins cait?
15:41 Oak slides?
15:41 wahanui kf should be writing slides
15:41 druthb jcamins?
15:41 wahanui hmmm... jcamins is brilliant
15:41 drojf kf: when you least expect it…
15:41 wizzyrea nah, not freaking. If they can get even 1/3 of the stuff on that list they'll be fine.
15:41 druthb I see it finally got rid of the "or" clauses properly.
15:41 * druthb put in an easter egg.  Or maybe two.  For jcamins to find.
15:41 Oak kf will you ever listen to us poor souls?
15:42 jcamins drojf: were you around when I learned the reason the error documents don't work is that PSGI applications aren't allowed to use .pl files as error documents.
15:42 druthb @eightball will kf ever listen to us and leave work early and relax?
15:42 huginn druthb: Naturally.
15:42 jcamins lol
15:42 kf she can't
15:42 Oak damn
15:42 kf she has a training to prepare and a gazillion tickets to deal with
15:43 druthb broken eightball.  wahanui got fixed, but that's broken.
15:43 Oak you know, an hour for yourself won't be bad for you.
15:43 i promise.
15:43 drojf jcamins: i read the log
15:43 wizzyrea in fact, it will help
15:44 Oak or for the damn training and stupid tickets.
15:44 * Oak hides
15:44 drojf jcamins: have not heard from dpavlin_ about his config, if it is not obvious from that how he made error pages work i'll ask for that too
15:44 jcamins drojf: okay.
15:44 drojf: he's using Apache...
15:44 drojf ah ok
15:45 let's just paint nix html error pages ;)
15:45 nice
15:45 * druthb thinks that's the first time she's ever seen Oak say "damn."
15:46 jcamins Hehe.
15:46 drojf: yes, that seems the way to go.
15:46 Oak :)
15:48 jcamins drojf: actually, what I'd really prefer is if Plack passed the error back to nginx, but I suppose that's not doable.
15:49 drojf that would be cool
15:50 jcamins The FAQ says that's not supported by current web servers.
15:50 kf Oak: I know - almost ready to go now :)
15:51 druthb: I think we are bad influence
15:51 Oak oh good. i had written that -> kf if you leave early i'll sing you a song on Skype or G+ later.
15:51 but no need now.
15:51 druthb kf:  probably.
15:52 Oak bad influence on who?
15:53 ah got it
15:55 * Oak wanders off

16:06 drojf w00t. koha gnupg'd my checkin message
16:06 jcamins drojf: very cool.
16:06 This reminds me.
16:07 I have to figure out how to get my package signing key off my VM and onto my server.
16:08 I also have to figure out gpg agent on Ubuntu.
16:10 jenkins_koha Starting build #874 for job Koha_master (previous build: SUCCESS)
16:10 drojf jcamins: i just copied the keys into a file on the vm, then imported with 'gpg --import filename', got long key id with  'gpg --list-keys --with-colons <key_id>' and trusted with 'gpg -e -r --trustedkey <long key id> somefile'
16:11 don't know if directly encrypting a file to trust the key is still needed, came from a very old posting where i found out what the long id is
16:11 jcamins How did you get the keys into the file?
16:12 drojf exported in file from thunderbird/openpgp
16:13 don't knpow if you can just import your .gpg file
16:13 i don't have a share folder between my notebook and the vm at the moment and i wanted to avoid sending that file around via some other server

16:14 jcamins Oh, looks like I can just transfer .gnupg using scp.
16:14 drojf it's --trusted-key btw, was a typo. 'gpg -e -r --trusted-key <long key id> somefile'
16:14 a that's fancy
16:15 vfernandes joined #koha
16:16 jcamins Cool, worked perfectly.
16:16 And I remembered not to encrypt the tgz using the private key I was trying to transfer. :)
16:17 drojf :)
16:17 vfernandes guys I'm having one problem using MARC21 and Koha searches... if I search for "Diacrítica: revista do Centro de Estudos Humanísticos. Série filosofia e cultura" there is no results, but if I search for "Diacrítica revista do Centro de Estudos Humanísticos. Série filosofia e cultura" there is 1 result.
16:17 there is some problem with ":"
16:17 jcamins vfernandes: yes.
16:17 vfernandes I didn't search the sort string
16:18 *I didn't change the sort_string.chr
16:18 kf I think there is a bug report for that
16:18 problems with :
16:18 jcamins Put a space in between Diacritica and the colon.
16:18 There is a bug, somewhere.
16:18 drojf kf: and you can't search it because if the ":"?
16:18 of
16:18 jcamins drojf: hehe.
16:19 vfernandes If I put a space before it works
16:20 jcamins That is, unfortunately, what you have to do.
16:20 * kf heard this could be fixed by this search rewrite
16:20 jcamins kf: funny, I heard that too!
16:20 Oh, wait.
16:20 I'm the one who said so. :D
16:21 vfernandes :)
16:21 kf search rewrite?
16:21 wahanui it has been said that search rewrite is http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]earch_Rewrite_RFC
16:21 kf and now Ileave :)
16:21 bye all!
16:21 kf left #koha
16:21 vfernandes lol
16:22 i'll let the client know that is a system bug
16:22 jcamins vfernandes: if they are interested in getting it fixed, sponsorship opportunities for the search rewrite are still available.

16:30 libsysguy it is also a song
16:30 wahanui okay, libsysguy.
16:30 libsysguy what is a wipeout
16:30 aww c'mon wahanui
16:31 wipeout
16:31 jcamins it?

16:31 it?
16:31 wahanui hmmm... it is a song
16:31 jcamins Heh.
16:31 libsysguy heh
16:31 soab
16:31 wahanui forget it
16:31 wahanui libsysguy: I forgot it
16:31 libsysguy LOL
16:32 wahanui wipeout is a song or when you lean too far forward ice skating
16:32 wahanui OK, libsysguy.
16:32 libsysguy wipeout?
16:32 wahanui hmmm... wipeout is a song or when you lean too far forward ice skating
16:32 libsysguy ok ill stop poking the bot now

16:32 wahanui OK, jcamins.

16:33 libsysguy yeah I was wondering if wahanui supported nesting

16:35 oleonard Save your logical paradoxes for frying the brains of invading alien robot probes please
16:35 libsysguy heh jcamins and I could probably come up with some good ones
16:38 SJeffery Grr, I think someone fixed how Koha handles URLs, which broke all of our stuff.
16:38 oleonard "handles URLs?"
16:38 libsysguy ^^ ?
16:38 wahanui hmmm... ^^ is always wizzyrea's concern, weird stuff could happen
16:38 wizzyrea forget ^^
16:38 wahanui wizzyrea: I forgot ^^
16:39 libsysguy heh silly wizzyrea
16:39 jcamins I don't recall any changes to URL handling.
16:40 SJeffery You used to be able to put //servername/path/file.ext in the 856 and have it work (at least in IE). Now that no longer works...it tries to add the base URL of the installation to the address. I can't recall patching IE, so I will happily blame the Koha gods.
16:40 jcamins Hmmm... it's always been like that.
16:40 At least as far as I can recall.
16:40 libsysguy jcamins SJeffery thinks we're gods :p
16:40 * oleonard blames IE whenever possible
16:41 * libsysguy only considers himself a demigod :p
16:41 SJeffery I swear I had it working at one point!
16:41 jcamins If you use a relative path, your web browser will interpret as being on the same server.
16:41 SJeffery (or broken, which means working!)
16:41 jcamins *it
16:42 SJeffery Is there a way to trick the browser into not using it?
16:42 jcamins That's the reason for that Microsoft stuck \/\/\/\/ in URLs at one point.
16:42 Or \\\\\\\\.
16:42 I don't quite remember.
16:42 Try \\\\\\\\?
16:42 You only use IE.
16:43 Actually, IE may need fewer. Maybe just \\\\?
16:44 SJeffery: wait, why don't you just stick file:// in front of it?
16:45 file://server/path/to/file
16:45 SJeffery Emoticons are the way to fix IE? Who would have thought:)
16:46 jcamins lol
16:47 wizzyrea heh.
16:47 jcamins Put on a happy face when IE puts you out, walk down the net and for the right syntax look...
16:48 Not bad, eh?
16:48 wizzyrea hehe
16:51 libsysguy lunch does sound good
16:51 if I could have some carbs :'(
16:52 wizzyrea no way http://bit.ly/dw_monopolygame
16:52 boo grain is evil.
16:52 you don't eat that stuff anymore.
16:52 ;)
16:52 * wizzyrea is being encouraging
16:53 * oleonard is confused by conflicting dietary advice
16:53 jcamins wizzyrea: and of course when you're doing really well you have to say "EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE!"
16:53 libsysguy it is confusing
16:54 hehe thanks wizzyrea
16:54 * jcamins is not giving up grains.
16:54 * libsysguy will start eating oats again when I get back to a gym
16:54 wizzyrea hehe oleonard
16:54 * libsysguy needs a gym to get back to :'(
16:54 wizzyrea oats are okish.
16:55 nengard left #koha
16:55 * jcamins has cut back on meat, and that's about all the dietary changes he's making at this time.
16:55 SJeffery tried the file(colon)/, that works, but apparently IE does not support clicking on that type of link...figures.
16:55 jcamins SJeffery: IE doesn't support clicking on the link?
16:55 libsysguy solution: don't use IE
16:55 jcamins That's...
16:56 wizzyrea yea, why are you using IE?
16:56 jcamins actually, not all that surprising.
16:56 * wizzyrea totally suspects that it *did* work
16:56 wizzyrea but IE had an update
16:56 and now it doesn't
16:56 jcamins It is a Wednesday.
16:57 oleonard http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_URI_scheme
16:58 jcamins SJeffery: try adding two additional slashes?
16:59 It's just a workaround, but it might by you another patch or two.
17:00 SJeffery on the plus side, we run IE8:)
17:00 wizzyrea the plus side?
17:00 that's the plus side?
17:00 jcamins wizzyrea: compared to IE7?
17:00 Yes.
17:00 wizzyrea oh, well yes.
17:00 * jcamins shudders.
17:00 SJeffery We were on 6 until recently
17:00 * wizzyrea shudders
17:01 wizzyrea recently as in the last 6 months?
17:01 libsysguy IE6
17:01 holy mother...
17:02 did the internet even work?
17:02 i think developers gave up on 6 years ago
17:02 wizzyrea more importantly, how did Koha work?
17:02 * wizzyrea suspects the answer is "not well"
17:03 jcamins wizzyrea: actually, other than javascript, it functioned reasonably okay, I think.
17:03 SJeffery Actually, the internet did sortof stop working. Entire parts of pages would not render at all.
17:03 sekjal joined #koha
17:03 jcamins For the OPAC.
17:03 SJeffery I think this might be the issue (from the bottom of the wikipedia page): "Internet Explorer browsers, prior to version 7, will attempt to access file: URLs even if they reside on pages fetched over HTTP"
17:04 wizzyrea I often wonder how people who use IE view the web - they must think it's completely broken.
17:04 jcamins Oh, of course... a security issue, now fixed.
17:04 drojf ha-ha *hides*
17:05 SJeffery drojf: I will be at the next Koha conference, and I *will* find you!
17:06 jcamins SJeffery: well, perhaps you could persuade IT to change the security policy for the Koha catalog to LAN?
17:06 * jcamins does not make any claims to this being a good idea.
17:06 wizzyrea or, convince IT that they should not force you to use IE?
17:07 * wizzyrea hopes that she's not sticking her foot in her mouth and that you are the person making these decisions >.<
17:07 wizzyrea (because that's totally not my intention)

17:15 bad luck, we voted for you now jcamins :P

17:45 mveron Cool, this calendar...
17:59 rangi Morning
17:59 wahanui somebody said Morning was a state of mind. or whenever the cat wants breakfast.
17:59 cait morning :)
18:03 rangi Who wants to post the roles on the website?
18:05 cait I asked ealier and noone reacted :)
18:05 rangi Hehe
18:05 Me I guess
18:13 jcamins_away rangi++ # for volunteering
18:15 rangi Will do when I get to work
18:16 mtate joined #koha
18:26 rangi Hmm I think it's pizza Thursday
18:26 jcamins I was thinking that too.
18:27 cait no, it was pizza wednesday :)
18:27 jcamins You're right.
18:27 Pizza Wednesday.
18:28 * jcamins saw "pizza" which is exactly what he was thinking about a scant five minutes ago.
18:28 rangi It's never pizza Wednesday
18:28 It's curry Wednesday
18:28 Manderson joined #koha
18:28 jcamins Ah, curries are contentious here.
18:29 rangi Two catalyst traditions liz will learn
18:29 wajasu joined #koha
18:32 cait lucky liz :)
18:33 rangi Pizza and talks
18:33 I wonder what topics today
18:35 Bbiab
18:38 wajasu jcamins: i noticed that when i ran link_bibs_to_authorites.pl  with --test,  it calls LinkBibHeadingsToAuthorities, which if you have AutoAddAuthorities syspref enabled, calls AddAuthority, which results in auth_header being updated.
18:38 jcamins Interesting. You should file a bug.
18:39 wajasu ok.
18:39 nengard joined #koha
18:41 jcamins Note to bloggers: when blogging, you still need punctuation.
18:41 The first sentence of that blog post was... 10 lines long?
18:41 * jcamins didn't bother reading it all, much less the rest of the post.
18:41 wizzyrea curry!
18:43 rangi back
18:44 drojf++ #gpg emails
18:45 cait wizzyrea: you are so lucky!
18:45 * jcamins is jealous.

19:05 oh come on wahanui :)
19:05 oleonard 4000 / 8 ?
19:05 wahanui 500
19:06 cait right
19:06 heh, ok, that was really lazy
19:06 wajasu 8*500
19:06 oleonard 4000 / 8 - 321 * 77 + 4 ?
19:06 wahanui -24213
19:06 oleonard Yup, checks out.
19:06 * oleonard did that in his head
19:06 jcamins 8*500
19:07 8*500?
19:07 wahanui 8*500 is probably 200
19:07 wajasu ha
19:07 * wajasu such is the sound of remove_items_from_biblioitems.
19:08 wajasu do that remove duplicate info from the marc or marcxml in biblioitems?
19:09 magnuse drojf: nope, mine are puffin dogs :-)
19:09 jcamins No, it removes items from biblioitems entirely.
19:09 cait magnuse? :)
19:09 wizzyrea puffin dogs!
19:09 magnuse cait?
19:09 mtate joined #koha
19:09 wizzyrea puffin dogs?
19:09 drojf magnuse: :)
19:09 cait was wondering why you repeated that :)
19:09 magnuse yup!
19:09 jcamins puffin dogs?
19:09 wahanui puffin dogs are not birds
19:09 wajasu where were they stored? in db fields? or marcxml tag fields?
19:09 jcamins items.
19:10 drojf puffin dog items?
19:10 * magnuse tries not to store puffindogs in *either db fields or marcxml tags fields too often
19:11 * wizzyrea is still lost - what are puffin dogs?
19:11 jcamins wizzyrea: according to wahanui, they're not birds.
19:11 drojf they would not fit because of the extra toes ;)
19:12 magnuse wizzyrea: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lundehund <-- read that and be amazed! :-)
19:12 cait indeed
19:12 * wizzyrea reads
19:12 wizzyrea oh my that dog is adorable.
19:12 cait they have too many toes and can move their head like the person in the excorsict
19:12 wizzyrea whoa.
19:13 magnuse then have a look at this pic: http://www.flickr.com/photos/l[…]eblogg/417311473/
19:13 * wizzyrea dies from the cute
19:13 magnuse hehe
19:14 wizzyrea I like this one: http://www.flickr.com/photos/l[…]l/in/photostream/
19:14 cute cute cute
19:14 magnuse see, we gotta have kohacon up here some time in the future so y'all can meet some puffindogs :-)
19:15 wizzyrea "Norwegian Puffin Dog"
19:15 but why *puffin*
19:15 because they are balls of adorable puffy fur?
19:15 magnuse 'cause they were used to hunt puffins
19:15 wizzyrea you have puffins in norway?
19:15 rangi not anymore
19:15 jcamins puffins?
19:15 wahanui puffins are birds, unless you're talking about the dogs.
19:15 * wizzyrea rimshots
19:15 magnuse they are in fact specially adapted to hunt exactly puffins
19:15 rangi :)
19:15 magnuse sure we do - still a fair number
19:16 but their numbers are dwindling, sadly
19:16 wizzyrea i am clearly uneducated in the biology of norway
19:16 * magnuse can see them from his living room window, some years
19:16 cait wizzyrea: you are going to nz - but I will go to oslo!
19:17 magnuse wizzyrea: you better come over and dedicate a year or two to studying norwegian biology :-)
19:17 cait well... only for 2 days... and no puffin digs
19:17 dogs
19:17 wizzyrea actually that will probably be my next trick.
19:17 j/k
19:17 well more or less.
19:17 cait heh :)
19:17 magnuse there are some in oslo, but i can't pronise anything :-)
19:17 cait I favor that - same time zone
19:17 wizzyrea i do love biology.
19:17 magnuse yay!
19:17 drojf wizzyrea: planning to work for libriotech in the future? ;)
19:18 wizzyrea lol. oy.
19:18 oleonard Hey, I wanna go to Oslo!
19:18 wizzyrea maybe?
19:18 magnuse ooh!
19:18 wizzyrea oh, get oleonard
19:18 it's "use koha to save the americans" day
19:18 * magnuse wishes he could hire lots of cool koha folks like wizzyrea
19:18 cait magnuse: yeah, get oleonard :)
19:18 * oleonard was just thinking of a visit :)
19:18 magnuse hmmm...
19:19 druthb left #koha
19:19 jcamins lol
19:19 wizzyrea I did not think of puffins as a cold weather bird.
19:19 rangi Get your two step on
19:19 http://soundcloud.com/poire-a-[…]rst-hardcore-song
19:19 (thats for magnuse)
19:19 jcamins rangi++ # for points 5-8
19:19 * cait likes this one http://www.flickr.com/photos/l[…]9/in/photostream/
19:19 cait yep awesome list
19:19 magnuse wizzyrea: do they live anywhere not cold?
19:19 wizzyrea oh I want to invent time travel
19:20 cait jcamins: it was decided yo uhave to entertain me in the afternoons now when liz will be no longer available
19:20 wizzyrea well just because I didn't *think* of them as cold weather birds doesn't mean my thinking was *right*
19:20 oleonard Those are in order by increasing unlikeliness?
19:20 magnuse wizzyrea: hehe
19:20 * magnuse has eaten puffin, once
19:21 jcamins cait: go QA things!
19:21 cait you woud eat a cute bird like this?
19:21 magnuse yup
19:21 cait doesn't have leonard a stuffed puffin?
19:21 * jcamins ate pigeon once.
19:21 cait they are not as cute
19:21 jcamins Actually, it wasn't the eating that was the problem.
19:21 rangi ive eaten pigeon
19:21 wizzyrea ok they are adorable. I could not eat that.
19:21 jcamins It was the cooking.
19:21 rangi in macau
19:22 libsysguy I just put up my blog post on how to use DBIx::Class
19:22 i'm sure it'll be here in a min via the twitbot
19:22 wizzyrea awwwwwwwwwwww
19:22 jcamins The "I had to kill twelve animals in order to make a pie?" realization was unwanted.
19:22 cait cutest baby ever
19:22 rangi cute!
19:22 wizzyrea at least it wasn't 4 and 20
19:22 jcamins Awww.
19:23 wizzyrea i'm sure many of you have seen the epic adorable that is magnus' facebook profile pic.
19:23 * cait nods and agrees
19:23 * magnuse blushes :-)
19:23 wizzyrea afk for a bit
19:24 jcamins wizzyrea: you know, it never occurred to me to think about that nursery rhyme.
19:24 cait with the little sheep on the clothes :)
19:24 magnuse rangi: that song won't play - ff complains about not finding flash...
19:24 rangi ah annoying
19:25 oleonard It does require flash
19:25 * magnuse thought he had flash
19:26 magnuse now watch bywater's server get #koha'ed...
19:26 drojf October 10th, 2012 by Chris Cormack  "Yesterday the Koha community held an IRC meeting" <- future rangi strikes again ;)
19:26 rangi it was yesterday for me :)
19:27 drojf oi know, you live in the future :)
19:28 jcamins libsysguy: you really just keep hoping I'll forget that we only support CGI out-of-the-box, don't you?
19:28 drojf that list is cool. have there ever been that many people with roles?
19:28 cait jcamins: hm?
19:28 rangi drojf: nope biggest team ever
19:28 cait drojf: my guess is no - seems to be more each time
19:28 drojf \o/
19:28 magnuse \o/
19:29 jcamins cait: DeploymentHandler.
19:29 libsysguy really wants to use it.
19:29 cait oh
19:29 guess as qam I should know what you are talking about...
19:29 * magnuse has a short memory
19:30 * cait should start on a reading list
19:30 magnuse do we need persistance to use DBIC?
19:30 rangi nope
19:30 but we do if we want to throw moose anywhere near anything
19:30 worlds slowest OO framework
19:30 magnuse yeah, i remember that much... :-)
19:30 jcamins We need persistance if we're using Moose for anything that people use.
19:30 rangi deploymenthandler uses moose
19:30 magnuse i was just not sure if DBIC somehow depended on Moose
19:31 jcamins Nope.
19:31 magnuse ah
19:31 jcamins Just DeploymentHandler.
19:31 * magnuse will try to remember that
19:32 libsysguy somebody said my nick 3 times
19:32 jcamins I know you are anti-deployment handler
19:32 but I had a thought
19:32 well it was khall's thought
19:32 and I am going to repeat it
19:33 if deployment handler uses moose, which is laggy and monstrously large…what do we care if it is only called during an update…
19:34 rangi why pull in half of cpan for a rarely used feature then?
19:34 libsysguy because the other version is depricated
19:34 rangi if you package moose as a deb, and have it work
19:34 then i might slightly consider it
19:34 libsysguy if "I" package it?
19:34 heh
19:34 jcamins libsysguy: 'cause we have to check the system is up to date.
19:34 rangi yup
19:35 libsysguy :'(
19:35 rangi cos no one else is going to :)
19:35 libsysguy hehehe
19:35 cait and only for an update that seems a bit...
19:35 are there distros that don't support moose for example?
19:35 libsysguy how long can we avoid Moose
19:35 cait I mean it would be an absolute requirement for update
19:35 rangi forever quite easily
19:35 cait forever?
19:35 libsysguy really
19:35 rangi there are better oo frameworks
19:35 yep
19:35 moo
19:35 * cait likes the sound of moo
19:35 rangi tiny::class
19:35 heaps
19:36 moose is rails
19:36 its for lazy developers who think their time is more important than the users
19:36 </rant>
19:36 libsysguy haha
19:36 drojf lol
19:36 libsysguy I thought Moose was required for Solr?
19:36 ^^ could be wrong
19:37 jcamins libsysguy: it is for the current implementation, but see note above about "having it work."
19:38 rangi is ::Versioned deprecated?
19:38 khall I've said it before, and I'll say it again, cpanm ; )
19:38 rangi ill say NO
19:38 again
19:38 khall heh : )=
19:38 rangi debian maintained packages trump cpanm any day
19:39 unless you want to commit to replicated the debian security team :-)
19:39 replicating even
19:39 khall what I really don't like is needing to install both from debian packages and from cpan.
19:39 mtate joined #koha
19:40 jcamins khall: agreed. That's why we're moving towards Debian packages.
19:40 rangi yep, there are very little that are cpan only (just the solr stuff)
19:40 liw and eythian have packaged tons of modules for debian
19:41 and most of them made it into the squeeze, the rest are in wheezy
19:41 magnuse have fun #koha
19:41 rangi and therefore ubuntu
19:41 khall if we set the rule 'nothing that's not available as a debian package' I may not like it, but I could get behind it.
19:42 rangi not available is ok, we can package it
19:42 jcamins I'm comfortable with "not currently available but readily packageable."
19:42 rangi its code that is incompatible with the packaged version that is the problem
19:42 jcamins It's things like Moose that require tearing apart your environment in order to install -- much less package -- that are problems.
19:43 liw packaging more cpan modules for Debian: ++
19:43 khall but isn't moose available in debian packages?
19:43 libsysguy am I missing something http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/libmoose-perl
19:44 rangi 08:42 <@rangi> its code that is incompatible with the packaged version that is the problem
19:44 jcamins Right, try using that with Koha and you'll kill your system.
19:44 Dead.
19:44 rangi the problem is the code for solr is incompatible with the packaged version of moose
19:44 you get into a messy upgrade/downgrade nightmare
19:45 libsysguy so both koha and solr are incompatible or just just solr currently in koha?
19:45 rangi solr itself doesnt give a crap about perl :)
19:45 jcamins I ended up needing to reinstall every single package in order to get Koha to run again after I tried to package a newer version of Moose in order to test Solr.
19:45 rangi its just the implementation we have to talk to solr
19:45 libsysguy well the solr integration bits :p
19:45 rangi in particular
19:45 cait and as solr is the only thing using moose right now...
19:45 rangi Data::SearchEngine
19:45 * libsysguy remembers that jcamins
19:46 cait can't we make it talk to solr using something else?
19:46 rangi im just waiting for jcamins to fix it all with his search rewrite :-)
19:46 libsysguy yeah jcamins
19:46 why isn't that done yet
19:46 rangi which incidentally is looking really good so far
19:46 libsysguy you've had what…like a week
19:46 jcamins lol
19:46 rangi but libsysguy/khall if you like OO frameworks, and you want one fast, and powerful check out moo
19:47 jcamins Moo is pretty cool.
19:47 rangi http://search.cpan.org/~mstrou[…]000004/lib/Moo.pm
19:47 cait jcamins: how is the funding going? is the page up to date?
19:47 jcamins And it meets the "must be easily packageable" requirement.
19:47 cait: I think so, yes.
19:47 libsysguy clever
19:48 just truncate Moose to Moo
19:48 jcamins No new news to report. Waiting on feedback from one of our earliest funders, then we'll do 1(b).
19:48 It's a little more than half of what Moose offers.
19:48 But ten times faster.
19:48 rangi and doesnt depend on XS libs
19:48 so, could work on OSX if you were mental
19:48 cait jcamins: hope you hear back soon :)
19:48 rangi and windows if you were demented
19:49 drojf lol rangi
19:49 * libsysguy is not THAT motivated
19:49 rangi heh
19:49 but yeah the xs libs are what makes cross platform stuff harder
19:49 jcamins http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]g.cgi?id=7417#c23 <-- speed
19:49 huginn 04Bug 7417: enhancement, P5 - low, ---, jcamins, Pushed to Master , Include alternate forms from authorities in bibliographic searches
19:49 libsysguy brb
19:49 khall any thoughts on Mouse?
19:49 * oleonard thinks these names are getting ridiculous
19:50 rangi mouse is better than moose, but still about 3times as big as moo, and slower
19:51 libsysguy back
19:51 khall I'm wondering if Mouse + Any::Moose + DBIx::Class::DeploymentHandler  is viable, or crazy
19:51 jcamins Crazy.
19:51 khall figured ; )=
19:52 jcamins There's a page somewhere that explains why that will result in insanity under Plack.
19:52 rangi if you could get it to go with moo, you'd be moving away from crazy
19:52 jcamins Yeah, Moo was written in large part to fix the Mouse + Any::Moose + things like Plack = chaos.
19:52 libsysguy b-b-but deployment handler has downgrades for when we screw up :p
19:52 rangi heh, i wish those ever worked :)
19:53 khall seriously, downgrades would be very very useful
19:53 rangi how do you downgrade from removing a column
19:53 libsysguy insert?
19:53 rangi the data is gone
19:53 cait what rangi says
19:53 i think it's only an interesting features for developers
19:53 jcamins libsysguy: the problem with downgrades is upgrade design, not technology.
19:53 cait not for libraries
19:53 * rangi has spent years trying to get reliable down patches for huge ssystems
19:54 rangi the best downgrade, is a back up ;-)
19:54 * jcamins wrote his own deployment system years ago.
19:54 rangi having a downgrade system devs can use isnt a bad goal, but having it be useful in production is unlikely to ever be achieved
19:55 once data is gone, its gone
19:55 khall we've had to downgrade Koha sites due to make-or-break bugs that weren't found before release.
19:55 * rangi hasnt
19:55 rangi in 13 years
19:56 so ymmv
19:56 cait ymmv?
19:56 libsysguy ^^
19:56 khall your milage may vary
19:56 libsysguy heh
19:56 cait thx
19:56 khall np
19:56 jcamins ymmv is your mileage may vary
19:56 cait khall: but do you want to make that a regular thing?
19:57 libsysguy ahh downgrades for deployment handler use the backups it makes
19:57 i think
19:57 khall you mean downgrade-ability? rangi has a good point. I think we could say 'this version can downgrade to this version'
19:57 rangi if so, then you run into the same problem just using backups is
19:57 data is stale now
19:57 jcamins libsysguy: seems like that would be likely to lead to unwanted side effects.
19:57 rangi do i go back and lose a day of circ
19:58 libsysguy it could
19:58 but in a pinch
19:58 jcamins Better to not sugarcoat it and say "we support downgrades."
19:58 You have a backup from that same time, just use it.
19:58 rangi automated downgrades = most likely asplode and kill us all
19:58 libsysguy man you guys are a tough crowd :p
19:59 rangi i can see the use for development when you dont care about the data as much
19:59 but what if the upgrade is to add a column to issues
19:59 then you do 3 days of circ
19:59 then you try to downgrade
19:59 libsysguy maybe a warning…"YO FOOL YOU ABOUT TO DELTE SOME DATA!!!"
19:59 heh
20:00 khall how often is db data destroyed in an upgrade? I'd say rarely at most. It's usually new or transformed.
20:00 cait I think better work on never ever make it necessary for people to downgrade
20:00 khall cait++
20:00 cait andi am withrangi - I foresee lots and lots and lots of trouble
20:00 if we tried to
20:00 rangi khall: that transform might be a one way transform tho
20:01 ie, going back .. not doable
20:01 khall very true
20:01 wahanui I know. That's why I said it.
20:01 jcamins khall: well, there's the thing. We don't traditionally write our updates to be two-way, and most of the time the upgrades aren't idempotent, they just happen to cause errors when you rerun them.
20:01 khall I'd say this dead horse has been throughly beaten at this point ; )
20:02 rangi i still would like to see something easier for testing
20:02 libsysguy well I think its still possible for use to use versioned
20:02 we just won't support downgrades
20:02 jcamins I think using Versioned would be a great idea.
20:02 rangi i like versioned
20:02 * libsysguy shrugs
20:02 libsysguy problem solved
20:02 khall DeploymentHandler has other features that make it better, such as allowing perl scripts as part of the upgrade proccess.
20:03 rangi yup
20:03 khall if we use versioned, what do we do about db updates that require perl code?
20:03 rangi but we can use versioned + scripts
20:05 khall that would work.
20:05 What would you consider the biggest reason to switch to versioned from what we have? I would assume db agnosticism?
20:05 rangi yup
20:06 plus maintainablilty
20:06 updatedatabase.pl is too long
20:06 khall I was just about to say that. I recall it being reset when we went to 3.0
20:06 it's huge again!
20:07 5365 lines
20:08 here's a question, what will get is to Koha 4.0?
20:08 jcamins A successor to yours truly.
20:08 khall heh
20:08 libsysguy aww you're giving up after just one go?
20:09 rangi id say db agnosticism would be a definite candidate for a major number bump
20:10 jcamins Or two, though that doesn't seem likely.
20:12 rangi getting rid of kohastructure.sql is a big step along that path
20:13 oleonard But... db agnosticism would suggest that there isn't one db which is better than all the rest!
20:14 rangi oh yeah, forgot about that!
