01:02 Waylon hiya all
01:03 Waylon okay, using the old zebra config of mandumah gives 1011 error, bad user or password. the master zebra config works fine. ive checked the passwd file for both, and they are exactly the same.
01:05 Jared joined #koha
01:06 Waylon anyone have any idea whats going on?
01:22 tcohen joined #koha
01:45 mtj Waylon, most likely a typo
01:46 mtj in your confg files
01:47 mtj last nite you had your old zebra configs working, just fine?
01:47 Waylon nope
01:47 Waylon had the master zebra config files working
01:48 Waylon switched back to old zebra config files.. reindexed... error 1011
01:49 mtj heres what i would do then....
01:49 mtj make a git branch
01:50 mtj reset your branch to relevant v3.0.x tag
01:50 mtj copy your zebra mods to it, then save the commit
01:51 mtj switch to your master branch, attempt to cherry-pick your modded commit
01:51 mtj that way, you now have a commit that contains your mod, at least....
01:52 mtj (something you dont have currently)
01:52 mtj ie: you currently have no idea what zebra changes you've made ( i assume)
01:54 mtj and you cant intergrate your changes…. if you dont know what they are in the 1st place
01:58 mtj and if you 'switch' your configs using git, rather than using cp...
01:58 mtj … you also see to see the diff of whats changed between them
01:59 mtj thats a pretty useful bit of info, there...
02:00 wajasu error 1011 bad username/password
02:00 mtj aaah, the many real-world uses of git...
02:01 mtj … saves my stupid ass every day :p
02:02 mtj bad user/password caused by a bad file path? pointing to a bad zebra db?, etc...
02:07 mtompset joined #koha
02:07 mtompset Greetings, #koha.
02:08 mtompset Attempting a fresh netinstall of Debian.
02:08 wajasu hi
02:08 mtompset I couldn't get my last one to do something as simple as "sudo apt-get update" without an error.
02:08 wajasu docmaster testing his instructions?
02:09 mtompset Yes, yes I am. These instructions are going to be da bomb.
02:10 wajasu jcamins told me i should instal/runl zebrasrv as root.  but i told him the INSTALL infers root.  sudo used before the commands.  but i think if we can run it as koha, we should document it.
02:11 mtompset Okay, wajasu... Do you use Debian?
02:12 wajasu I run archlinux.  i run debian in a VM to develop.
02:12 mtompset Because last install, I had to go through a hassle to get sudo to work, because I didn't set a root password, so the root account is disabled by default.
02:13 mtompset Should I just cave and set a root password?
02:13 wajasu in that auto install script, i set a root user/password (koha/koha)
02:14 wajasu the one i pasted the other day.
02:14 mtompset Right. Okay... not disabled it is. Let's try that way.
02:15 wajasu if you have libvirt running under debian, you could probably run my script and watch it all go by.
02:15 mtompset I'm running Windows 7 and virtualbox.
02:15 mtompset Yes, I know. A ridiculed platform.
02:16 wajasu nevermind.
02:19 mtompset Yes, the day after I set up my debian... the sudo apt-get update broke, because something decided to not exist.
02:20 wajasu if you refer to my script, which, you can see which apt-get and repos I set.  i don't know if the preferred whay to install is to use koha-common now.
02:20 mtompset And as I have no idea what to fix, I'm just doing a fresh install today in hopes that it works now.
02:20 wajasu do you have to grant sudo to koha?
02:21 mtompset No.
02:21 mtompset not that I know of.
02:22 mtompset Though, I do recall having to grant cron or at access. Can't recall which.
02:22 mtompset But that was a post-install problem, not an install problem. :)
02:22 wajasu let me look at my VM script.
02:27 wajasu in my preseed.cfg there is a place for account setup that mentions: "Skip creation of a root account (normal user account will be able to
02:27 wajasu # use sudo)."   though i do set the root password to koha.
02:29 wajasu i have:   koha ALL=(ALL) ALL   in my /etc/sudoers
02:32 mtj wajasu, thats a bad bad thing….
02:33 wajasu i put that in my preseed.cfg  because i had issues as well i guess.  I had top chmod +rw the file, edit it, and chmod 0440 afterward.  i believe the file must be secured with the correct permissions  before sudoers will work.
02:33 wajasu i know.
02:33 wajasu its a dev VM.
02:34 wajasu but maybe you can specificy what koha may run as root.
02:35 rangi why would the koha user need to run anything as root?
02:35 wajasu why do we have sudo in INSTALL?
02:35 rangi you dont install with the koha user
02:36 rangi the koha user is who should own the files after install (or some user that does most definitely not have root privileges)
02:36 rangi thats the entire point
02:37 wajasu i usually do make install as root.
02:37 rangi and?
02:37 wahanui hmmm... and is that patch only for "$" or for "$ CAD" ?
02:37 rangi thats immaterial
02:37 mtompset I have to agree that koha ALL=(ALL) ALL is bad.
02:38 mtompset The point is to limit access for the koha account, not create another hackable point.
02:38 rangi anyway, i have work to do, ill leave you to your madness
02:39 wajasu so the the commands in INSTALL that have sudo before them infer what?  koha has sudo abilites for those commands, OR one should be root .  Maybe we should say "As root:"
02:39 mtompset When a person makes a system, they don't usually create the koha account first. They create their own first.
02:40 mtompset The koha account creation is AFTER.
02:41 mtompset And, from what I can tell, it is only necessary for a "standard" install, which is typically a tarball install.
02:41 wajasu are these instructions for koha-common at all.  If so, I think koha-common creates the koha account in a pre/post install script.
02:41 wajasu 3 years ago i used git.  pulled things as koha.
02:41 mtompset Which instructions?
02:41 mtompset Because perhaps that's a point I need to clarify.
02:41 wajasu the ones you are editing/writing.   I am only looking at INSTALL right now.
02:42 mtompset Link or filename, please.
02:42 wajasu kohaclone/INSTALL
02:42 mtompset That's not the file I am editing.
02:42 wajasu oh
02:43 mtompset I am currently editing http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]ki/Koha_on_Ubuntu
02:44 mtompset I have put out INSTALL.ubuntu.12.04
02:44 mtompset but that is tarball install focused.
02:44 wajasu koha-common isn't even something that I consider in production yet.  its not mentioned in the git INSTALLs.
02:45 mtompset No, because there are three kinds of installs:
02:45 mtompset packages (koha-common)
02:45 mtompset git (dev)
02:45 mtompset and tarball (standard)
02:45 mtompset Both git and tarball need to be built.
02:46 mtompset When building git, you normally answer dev.
02:46 mtompset This means it goes into your home directory.
02:46 mtompset There's no need for a koha user.
02:46 mtompset It all runs as you.
02:46 mtompset It's a development system.
02:46 wajasu packages is new to me.   this third way needs to be mentioned in INSTALL as an option.  If its production ready.
02:47 wajasu right.
02:47 mtompset When building tarball (the old way of doing install prior to Koha 3.4)...
02:47 mtompset you answer standard.
02:47 mtompset You need the koha account.
02:47 wajasu the standard install is what i use.   thats all i would know about from the git.
02:47 mtompset Because that is what everything runs as after the installation and everything is set up.
02:48 mtompset I think a standard install from git is possible, but it seems bizarre to mix development with what would normally be in production.
02:49 wajasu there is no wiki in my setup world.  why?  we don't refer to it in the gt INSTALLS.   if something changed in 3.4  i wouldn't know. i'm someone updateing from 3.0 -> 3.10 (i hope).
02:50 wajasu so i go to git. pull code.  read INSTALL.   and have no clue about wiki or koha-common.  i just think that is there is a new way, ie packages, we need to mention it in the INSTALL.
02:50 mtompset wajasu: That's why I was asking my questions on the koha-devel list.
02:51 mtompset Sadly, no one has replied with answers yet.
02:52 mtompset You'll notice that my very first question was about the recommended upgrade path from pre-3.4 to current.
02:53 mtompset Well, archlinux is not a debian-based OS, so you can probably continue to get away with tarball installs.
02:53 wajasu just as a techie, with open source, etc     I would assume a tech, 1) grabs code from git. 2) reads README, and INSTALL, and INSTALL wiith distribution suffix.  If nothing mentions packages, he won't go there, and it might take months to discover their existence.
02:54 mtompset Actually, I would assume:
02:54 mtompset Go to wiki
02:54 mtompset Look for OS
02:54 mtompset Look for Install
02:54 rangi no one does either of those
02:54 rangi they go to download.koha-community.org or koha-community.org
02:55 wajasu maybe for new gen.   for old gen guys like me, its been  what i wrote since the 1980s.
02:55 rangi heh
02:55 rangi git hasnt existed
02:55 schnydszch joined #koha
02:55 wajasu git, sv, cvs, zmodem, bbs, whatever
02:55 rangi and why you would install from git not a released version ....
02:56 rangi how old are you wajasu?
02:56 wajasu because its opensource :)
02:56 rangi thats ridiculous
02:56 wajasu 45
02:56 mtompset Okay... but if they go to download.koha-community.org they are going to get a tarball.
02:56 rangi yeah you dont have many years on me :) so you cant pull the old gen card on me
02:56 mtompset For a debian-based OS, that's an initial mis-step.
02:57 rangi yep, which is why the release notes tell people to use the packages, and when they are in debian proper, ppl will install from there rather than going to either
02:58 wajasu are the release notes in the git kohaclone directory?
02:58 rangi yes
02:58 wajasu well then we are cool then :)
02:58 rangi ppl who are running from git are the .00001% anyway
02:59 wajasu its the root of everything. (though not its distributed :)
02:59 rangi i mean running a non released version in production ...
02:59 wajasu i know folks do that.
02:59 rangi i know they do
02:59 mtompset That percentage will increase as khall's VM images become more popular. :)
02:59 rangi doesnt mean we should encourage that
02:59 rangi yes that's why its a bad idea
02:59 rangi the and VM should run from packages
03:00 wajasu lets write what you said in the install  "It is suggested to..."   because what i did 3 years ago was:
03:02 wajasu pull source.   see install.   spend weeks  pulling deps.   almost bailm and say, this is junk.  but persisted.  ran zebrasrv under root, though i wanted to run it as koha user.  started migrating old lib db to koha "test environment"
03:02 wajasu then folks said, its a go. and there was know time to install over and over with all those cpan deps.
03:03 wajasu plus using VMs was newer then.
03:03 schnydszch if i delete the data in import_records and import_items table, could there be a problem? like it would delete bibliographic records and item records? or any other problems?
03:03 mtompset Okay, good the koha-community.org pages link to the old packages install info under Lucid.
03:04 wajasu because the install did not say "debian" is ...,   i assume any linux/unix would suffice, becuase its perl., so archlinux.
03:04 wajasu but then i got burned after it ran for a year.
03:05 wajasu archlinux update (pacman (rpm/apt-get))  installed perl 14, now its per 5.16.1
03:05 wajasu bam. koha broke.
03:05 wajasu had to rollback crippled. at 3.0.145
03:05 rangi or you could have just cpanned the modules into 14
03:06 wajasu each year, waiting for a version working as well as 3.0.145 to migrate to.
03:06 rangi i have an old 2.2.9 running under perl 5.16
03:07 mtompset Actually, I was wondering if a "Requirements" link to http://koha-community.org/download-koha/ could be added to the http://download.koha-community.org/ page.
03:07 rangi koha itself wont have broken just modules it depends on will no longer by compiled for the right version of perl, and/or installed in a findable path
03:07 wajasu the real problem i found with running perl, groovy, or scripting stuff, is if the OS breaks the perl libs (archlinux was new with perl) and hardly had perl stuff.
03:07 mtj wajasu, if you choose an advanced/expert install on uncommon distros, expect unique problems
03:08 wajasu i did.
03:08 rangi thats why using cpan, if you can use packaged versions of modules, is discouraged .. so on .deb based or even rpm based ones (later centos anyway)
03:08 rangi upgrading perl, would upgrade those modules too
03:08 rangi if you have used cpan, you need to upgrade them yourself
03:09 rangi same as if you had installed them from their tarballs, or because they are opensource, cloned each one and installed from there
03:09 mtj wajasu, i asked people what distro i should use, people recommended debian - ive had a painless install experience ever since...
03:09 rangi there are people running various ranges, even BSD
03:09 wajasu that was the problem.  arch only had like 3 of the deps.  i used a script for the other 50-80+.  later when the dist added packages, they collided.
03:10 wajasu anyway. arch changes too often to be a server.  it better for desktop devel.
03:10 mtj wajasu, if you asked/followed peoples advice , you would have had a painless install expereince too
03:10 mtompset If a "Requirements" link to http://koha-community.org/download-koha/ was added to the http://download.koha-community.org/ page this would provide a preventive step under debian-based OSes. :)
03:10 mtompset (preventitive of tarball installs)
03:11 wajasu oh. you have to remember, that LL stuff was going on, and it confused everything.
03:11 mtompset LL?
03:12 wajasu rangi knows.
03:12 wajasu who, what is koha
03:13 wajasu lime.
03:13 mtj wajasu, what does LL have to do with running a prod koha from git, on archlinux ?
03:13 rangi they might have told him to, sounds like something they would say
03:14 mtompset LL... Okay, clued in.
03:14 wajasu never spoke with them, but the net had links everywhere then, and I didn't know for sure which was koha.
03:14 wajasu i would go with either.
03:14 wajasu i just wanted the source to prove the code worked.
03:15 wajasu the other thing i did after std install was the make test.  i never really got throught them at that point.
03:17 wajasu i had to figure out how to create marc records, write a dump from legacy, import staged, etc.  that took all my time.  i let the user play with the product and never investigated it until it was in production.
03:17 wajasu i hoped to get them moved to a vendor.
03:17 wajasu which i will after 3.10, i hope.
03:18 mtj wajasu, well, congrats on being the 1st person to ever run a production Koha on archlinux
03:19 wajasu for 3 years.
03:19 mtj ….from git, too
03:20 mtompset I can see an INSTALL.archlinux "Why are you even thinking of this?! Are you crazy?"
03:20 mtj me... i just stuck with what the developers recommended, debian
03:20 Waylon im thinking, might be best to examine all the zebra marc setup of old zebra, and make sure the setup is the same in the new zebra config.
03:20 Waylon instead of trying to use this old config.
03:20 * mtompset nods.
03:21 mtj … and now i run from the deb packages… my experience has been smooth and painless
03:22 wajasu i found the debian packages by accident.  i likes the debian packages as well.  my dev VM uses them.  gathering the cpan modules is the beast.
03:22 mtj so in every situation… first ask the advice of people wiser than you
03:23 wajasu there aren't too many out there these days.
03:24 wajasu without the IRC, all one had was INSTALL.
03:24 wajasu the wiki is golden now
03:25 wajasu plus i never could bring myself to run  make upgrade.
03:25 mtompset rangi: Do you know the answers to my 5 questions on koha-devel?
03:26 rangi maybe
03:26 rangi its not a tl;dr mail is it?
03:26 * rangi has limited hours before a big conference nexxt week
03:27 mtompset tl;dr?
03:27 rangi too long; didnt read
03:27 mtompset It's one screen on my computer (19" monitor)
03:27 mtompset Though I think the "great wall of install" may have discouraged you from reading it. ;)
03:30 rangi there quick answer
03:30 mtj … and the words 'hidden' throughtout it
03:32 wajasu i noticed bug 4460 never made it (i posted that in 2010).  and now bug 8679 is in there.
03:32 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=4460 enhancement, P3, ---, kyle, Failed QA , Amazon's AssociateID tag not used in links so referred revenue lost
03:32 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=8679 normal, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, Pushed to Master , Remove usage of Amazon API
03:33 wajasu not that a labrary would want revenue. if its available.
03:33 rangi never made it because they kept changing their API, and more importantly their T&C
03:33 wajasu i don't mind.
03:34 wajasu its just because the accessid was in the preferences, and it cause us to go get one.  we didn't need it.
03:45 * wajasu reading koha-devel.  no need to send patches to koha-patches list?
03:46 rangi no need, its still nice practice for new ones, don't bother sending signed off ones
03:46 wajasu now i can spend more time on test plan and writing tests.
03:46 rangi also, if i go mad one day and rm -rf the server that runs bugzilla
03:46 rangi you'd be glad they were in the mailing list archives
03:46 rangi in newer git
03:46 rangi you dont even need to do a format-patch
03:47 wajasu you mean i can push?
03:47 rangi git send-email  does it for you
03:47 wajasu gotcha
03:49 wajasu whats the deal with bug 7844
03:49 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7844 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, dpavlin, Needs Signoff , plack scripts for developers
03:50 wajasu i looked at it.  i wish it would use whatever my KOHA_CONF environment is out of the box/git.
03:51 mtj send a follow-up patch?
03:52 wajasu i can install via cpanm, but does won't need to get plack and other modules as "optional" dependencies?
03:53 wajasu ok followup. suggestion patch.
03:53 Waylon plack not ready for production?
03:54 rangi not even close
03:54 rangi thats why its scripts for developers
03:54 Waylon same answer for nginx?
03:54 rangi nginx is fine
03:54 rangi but you should not what you are doing
03:54 rangi s/not/know/
03:55 Waylon right.
03:59 mtompset KOHA_CONF and PERL5LIB environment variables depend on your build.
04:00 wajasu yes.
04:22 Waylon joined #koha
04:22 Waylon hmm... comp crashed.
04:29 Waylon hmmmmmmm... old zebra setup has alot of missing attributes from bib1.att.... curious. yet in koha 3.0 it worked fine..
04:31 Waylon does the more attributes in bib1.att, equal more time to index the db?
04:36 Waylon .......... -facepalms- bad password due to bad path.
04:36 Waylon thankyou diff -r.
04:38 rangi 14:00 < mtj> bad user/password caused by a bad file path? pointing to a bad zebra db?, etc...
04:38 Waylon yes.
04:38 Waylon had to diff it to find it.]
04:40 Waylon hmm.. odd.. subject(s) line, the subjects arn't split into a list, but instead, is one link, with lotsa and queries.
04:55 drojf good morning #koha
04:55 Waylon good morning drojf
04:55 drojf hi Waylon
04:58 mtompset Greetings, drojf and sorry for the massive delay in acknowledgement: Waylon. :)
04:58 drojf hi mtompset
05:03 Waylon anyone know why the subject list in Normal view, becomes one long link?
05:03 drojf @wunder berlin, germany

05:03 Jared joined #koha
05:03 mtompset Woo hoo! Kudos go out to my friends in the Computer Science Club at the University of Waterloo in Canada. I can sudo apt-get update!
05:05 mtompset Okay... fresh debian install... let's see what happens.
05:14 Waylon to alter what information gets displayed in search results, and where/how it looks, i edit xslt?
05:16 Waylon xslt?
05:16 wahanui somebody said xslt was a maze of twisty turny passages, all alike. or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XSLT and the pages at http://cs.au.dk/~amoeller/XML/transformation/ may be useful for learning the basics.
05:17 drojf Waylon: if you have xslt turned on (i think four sysprefs, results and detail for each staff client and opac) then yes
05:17 Waylon right, so all results get delivered, in full, to XSLT?
05:17 Waylon or does one have to actually declare what fields make it to XSLT
05:17 Waylon ?
05:17 drojf but you can also specify visibility options for subfields in your MARC frameworks
05:18 drojf not all fields are in xslt by default, you can add what you like
05:19 Waylon okay, how do i give fields to XSLT?
05:19 drojf what i would do is open the xslt file you would like to edit and have a look there how it is done for fields that are present
05:20 Waylon ah? so koha does infact expose all fields to the XSLT system, and the file picks the ones it needs?
05:22 drojf you can check whether a field is available, check indicators, check subfields and then do stuff with that
05:22 drojf like <xsl:if test="marc:datafield[@tag=777]">
05:23 drojf to see if you have that field
05:23 drojf and then <xsl:for-each select="marc:datafield[@tag=777]">
05:23 drojf to do stuff for all your 777-fields

07:28 * mtompset grins.
07:29 mtompset Well, the interesting this is I get to use my check_deps.sh script (which I haven't in a while).
07:29 mtompset Turns out there are several dependencies missing in the debian.packages file under install_misc
07:30 mtompset This makes for more commands to do a simple git install (which is something people who wish to develop should be doing)

08:03 schnydszch joined #koha
08:04 schnydszch i'm having problem running a perl script specifically rebuild_zebra, i'm getting this error messsage: DBI connect('dbname=__DB_NAME__;host=__DB_HOS​T__;port=__DB_PORT__','__DB_USER__',...) failed: Unknown MySQL server host '__DB_HOST__' (1) at /home/koha/kohaclone//C4/Context.pm line 758 Unknown MySQL server host '__DB_HOST__' (1) at /home/koha/kohaclone//C4/C
08:04 schnydszch how do i fix the problem?
08:07 mtompset What are you using?
08:08 schnydszch koha 3.8.1 on debian
08:09 schnydszch it's a virtual machine actually, i've installed webmin
08:09 schnydszch I tried running the rebuild zebra script in webmin and in command line but I get that error message, what could be the problem?
08:10 schnydszch I didn't do anything with my database
08:13 mtompset Where did you get the virtual machine?
08:15 schnydszch kyle hall's virtual machine
08:16 mtompset I thought he had a newer one which is 3.8.4
08:16 schnydszch oh the previous one
08:16 wahanui the previous one is probably now closed as a duplicate - stick to 6481
08:16 schnydszch that was working ok last week
08:17 drojf wahanui: forget the previous one
08:17 wahanui drojf: I forgot previous one
08:17 schnydszch is there a new one?
08:17 drojf schnydszch: have you checked that mysql-server is running?
08:18 schnydszch it's running
08:18 eythian joined #koha
08:18 mtompset drojf: I think he is running the script from the wrong directory, or something.
08:18 schnydszch at least in webmin
08:18 mtompset those values scream of blib.
08:18 schnydszch the mysql server
08:18 mtompset (prior to installation)
08:19 mtompset is there a /usr/share/koha directory?
08:19 schnydszch no, since kyle hall's different
08:19 mtompset you checked?
08:19 schnydszch i think it's in /home/koha/kohaclone something like that, i'm no linux expert yet..
08:20 drojf i'm sorry i don't know anything about that virtual machine
08:20 schnydszch i've checked
08:20 drojf oh it's a git installation?
08:20 mtompset None of us do, and unfortunately khall is idle.
08:20 schnydszch no /usr/share/koha directory
08:22 schnydszch hours ago, my koha virtual machine hanged when i was editing biblio records, so i stopped the virtual machine, when I run rebuild_zebra -b -a -z I got the errots
08:22 schnydszch errors
08:24 magnuse how do you run rebuild_zebra?
08:24 magnuse which dir are you in when you run it?
08:24 schnydszch in webmin: $KOHA_CRON_PATH/../migrati​on_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -b -a -z >/dev/null
08:25 schnydszch in command line /home/koha/kohaclone/misc/mi​gration_tools/rebuild_zebra
08:25 schnydszch Environment variable KOHA_CONF = /home/koha/kohaclone/etc/koha-conf.xml
08:25 magnuse hm, that should be ok i think
08:25 schnydszch Environment variable PERL5LIB = /home/koha/kohaclone
08:26 schnydszch those were predefined I think but now I got the problem
08:26 magnuse no wait, KOHA_CONF might be wrong
08:26 drojf from the error it seems like it is
08:26 schnydszch where should or could it be?
08:26 magnuse is there a dir called /home/koha/koha-dev ?
08:27 schnydszch yes
08:27 schnydszch should i point it there?
08:27 magnuse yup
08:28 magnuse /home/koha/koha-dev/etc/koha-conf.xml
08:28 schnydszch but there is no koha-conf.xml there.. will try anyway
08:28 magnuse well, if there is no /home/koha/koha-dev/etc/koha-conf.xml it will not work
08:29 eythian 'locate koha-conf.xml'?
08:30 schnydszch ah okay there is.. /home/koha/koha-dev/etc/koha-conf.xml /home/koha/kohaclone/blib/K​OHA_CONF_DIR/koha-conf.xml /home/koha/kohaclone/etc/koha-conf.xml
08:30 schnydszch in three directories
08:30 magnuse /home/koha/koha-dev/etc/koha-conf.xml is the one to use, then
08:33 schnydszch i think it is the rebuild zebra is already running i'm just waiting for it to finish, how could that happen when /home/koha/kohaclone/etc/koha-conf.xml was working?
08:36 magnuse no idea ;-)
08:39 mtompset Oh...
08:39 mtompset WRONG config file.
08:39 drojf i don't think i like ready-built virtual machines much more than live-cds
08:40 mtompset ~/koha-dev/etc/koha-conf.xml?
08:42 mtompset drojf, I think this virtual machine is a DEV machine.
08:43 mtompset Does that file I said exist, schnydszch?
08:44 mtompset Oh well... I was probably on the right track.

08:45 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7409 normal, P5 - low, ---, robin, Needs Signoff , Missing dependencies for Debian package
08:45 drojf mtompset: it appears to be a git installation. i'm not really sure as to why you would want to give that out ready-made, which to me kind of implies you can use it without knowledge of the system
08:47 mtompset The advantage of a git system is updating it becomes very easy.
08:48 mtompset And less bandwidth consuming than downloading a whole new image.
08:50 mtompset Actually, that bug above, reminds me of a bug I want to post.
08:50 mtompset datetime-timezone is only 1.20, but the minimum is 1.26
08:51 rangi not as easy as the packages, and you can mess up a git installation a lot easier and make it harder to recover than packages
08:51 mtompset I don't know how they got 1.26
08:52 mtompset Well, yes, that is true too, Rangi.
08:53 mtompset Any ideas on how to get DateTime::Timezone 1.26 considering the default repos, including debian.koha-community.org only have 1.20?
08:54 mtompset And I decided to go look at debian repos for items without candidate numbers, and there is a 1.46, but it seems strange to have to go to the repos like this for DEBIAN.
09:02 * drojf goes out to get some sun while it's out there
09:04 * mtompset grumbles, "Good thing I put this section in here about checking the repos for unmarked versions."
09:05 * mtompset grumbles, "Debian. BAH! Just as bad as Ubuntu for installing non-packages."

09:20 mtj … so they can learn to configure there very own git koha
09:21 mtj if people do goofy things with it, thats not really Kyle's fault
09:34 eythian mtompset: I wonder if the minimum of 1.26 was actually checked for
09:35 eythian I could build higher versions, but it would be better that the versions were real minimums for everybody.
09:35 mtompset It's part of the koha_perl_deps.pl script.
09:35 mtompset If I'm doing a git install, I still have to run that.
09:35 eythian yes, but is it the real minimum, or is it just what was tested?
09:35 eythian If <1.26 wouldn't do the job, fair enough
09:35 eythian But if it would work fine, then the minimum should be reduced.
09:36 kf hey eythian
09:36 eythian hiya kf
09:37 mtompset I see what you mean, and it would make my life easier. :)
09:38 eythian I've not noticed any issues with the packaged version, but I haven't looked either
09:39 mtompset I went to CPAN... no bug reports for 1.20 ;)

10:41 vfernandes hi guys... one request: anyone uses XSLT and MARC21? i'm having a problem with subject search because it only searches the subfield $a.... for example if the subject is Medicine -- Periodicals, I want to search all the subfields and not only "Medicine"
10:41 vfernandes http://catalogo.ubi.pt/cgi-bin[…]iblionumber=84469
10:42 vfernandes anyone has this modification on the XSLT?
10:43 eythian vfernandes: I don't think the XSLT and the search are related
10:43 vfernandes eythian... the problem is that the a href is built on the XSLT
10:43 eythian oh right, so no the search but the search string
10:44 vfernandes yes.. my bad :)
10:44 eythian I see your issue
10:44 vfernandes maybe someone had already done this modification to the XSLT
10:45 eythian vfernandes: one of our clients has this: https://library.plantandfood.c[…]iblionumber=43440
10:45 eythian which seems to work fine
10:47 vfernandes that's exactly what I want, besides that being a "bad" example because the subject searches redirects to the same record and not gives the impression that being working fine
10:48 vfernandes but the url seems to be well built :D
10:48 vfernandes can you send me the XSLT file?
10:50 vfernandes PS: like the clean look of your OPAC :)
10:50 eythian looking for the file, I'm not sure how it differs from the current one.
10:51 eythian and yeah, it was just an example I grabbed without looking too closely.
10:51 eythian We have a good design team who do our OPACs
10:52 eythian http://git.catalyst.net.nz/gw?[…]eads/mykoha-3.6.x <-- vfernandes
10:53 eythian keep in mind that this is still 3.6, so it may not work well with 3.8,  but you can probably pull out the bits you want
10:54 vfernandes ok eythian... thank you so much for the help
11:01 jcamins_away vfernandes: there is a syspref you can use to set it to search all subfields.

12:44 wajasu mtompset:  i always edit koha_perl_deps to have DateTime  as 1.20  and have been running like that since june.  no 1.26 in squeeze.
12:44 mtompset So perhaps it is as eythian though, and the minimum should be reduced.
12:45 mtompset Though, I should grep the code to see what actually uses it.
12:45 mtompset Perhaps there is a way to replace the dependency with something we already have, and thus simplify.
12:46 jcamins mtompset: DateTime is a very core requirement at this point. Removing it is not an option.
12:47 mtompset No, DateTime::Timezone.
12:47 mtompset wajasu didn't type the full name.
12:47 wajasu yes that the one
12:47 jcamins Ah.
12:47 mtompset Debian doesn't have 1.26 by default.
12:47 wajasu i just woke up.
12:47 mtompset It only has 1.20
12:48 mtompset I'll forgive you, wajasu. :)
12:48 mtompset So trying to do a git installation or a tarball install won't work.
12:49 jcamins The solution is to change the minimum version, not introduce subtle new bugs, I think.
12:49 mtompset And the datetime::timezone that doesn't have a candidate number in the repos has too many other dependencies to try to sort out.
12:50 wajasu someone here told me to reduce the version.  some months back. its the best option.
12:51 wajasu i tried to suggest makeing this a bug and fixing it in git in a subsequent release.  maybe they should in 3.10
12:51 jcamins File a bug and submit a patch.
12:51 jcamins We know the change you made works, right?
12:51 wajasu yes. i 've been running like that since June
12:52 mtompset Actually, if I don't find it in use at all in the code, it could be removed as a dependency.
12:52 mtompset Then the problem doesn't exist.
12:55 jcamins mtompset: only if you can prove that it's definitely not required.
12:55 jcamins Which is, unfortunately, much harder than it sounds.
12:55 wajasu i'll make a patch today.  i grepped, I don't see it in master    find . -name "*.*" -exec grep -Hn "DateTime::Timezone" {} \;
12:56 jcamins But we may not be `use`ing it directly.

13:12 eythian since when did I become an expert?
13:12 wajasu who else builds packages?
13:13 eythian jcamins and magnuse have both built packages.
13:13 eythian I'm sure others have too
13:13 wajasu good to know.
13:13 jcamins eythian: since liw left the Debian packaging to you.
13:13 eythian it's designed not to be too much of an ivory tower process :)
13:13 oleonard I'm sticking with expert.
13:14 * liw points at eythian and says "expert"
13:14 eythian aww man
13:14 mtompset But if DateTime 0.58 requires 1.26, then why does 0.61 only require 1.20?
13:14 liw eythian, you have no escape, you're an expert now :)
13:15 wajasu i started to build packages in my debian VM, but i think i needed too much disk space in it, or something.  then someone shoed me the kc repo
13:15 eythian mtompset: probably because they revised the dependencies
13:15 eythian wajasu: it can take a fair bit of disk sometimes.
13:15 jcamins mtompset: there's no point in speculating. Ask Colin.
13:16 mtompset Sorry, but the name is just a name to me. Ask how?
13:16 jcamins Post a note on the bug?
13:16 jcamins Or send an e-mail?
13:16 jcamins I don't think he's on IRC much anymore.
13:18 wajasu the other thing.  when i was building archlinux, i did a grep search/replace script to use #!/usr/bin/env  perl   and things ran fine.  I think i recal finding some rogue perl being called and required a manulal edit though.
13:19 jcamins eythian++
13:19 eythian what'd I do now?
13:19 jcamins wajasu: /usr/bin/perl is required by Debian.
13:19 eythian also there are non-specific security issues.
13:19 jcamins eythian: Recommended against writing a logger from scratch.
13:19 eythian ah right
13:19 eythian I used to live in the java world
13:19 eythian it was a very common thing there
13:20 jcamins eythian: where everyone writes their own loggers?
13:20 eythian yeah
13:20 wajasu slf4j
13:20 jcamins wtf?
13:20 eythian before they discover lig4j or commons-logging or whatever
13:20 * jcamins thinks the Java world must be a very strange place.
13:21 eythian It's usually the defining line between someone with experience and someone without, whether they go and do that.
13:21 jcamins Hehe.
13:22 * eythian wrote one, and then later changed it to all be log4j or whatever it is
13:22 wajasu strong typed dev, with a team  vs dynamic typing annd lots of bugs later and work pushed to QA and tests needed even more.
13:23 jcamins wajasu: I like strongly-typed languages, but it wouldn't even occur to me to write my own logger from scratch.
13:23 eythian oh, actually, apparently I use Java's inbuilt logging system
13:24 eythian which makes a bit of sense I guess
13:24 wajasu most everyone uses slf4j.org  API, and its pluggable.
13:25 jcamins wajasu: yeah, that makes sense to me as the *first* approach would try, not the last. :)
13:26 eythian I think the SDK one is a bit simpler, but if you need fancier stuff later, you can just drop in sfl4j and it'll become the manager for the internal stuff. or something like that.
13:26 * eythian pokes through some java code I haven't looked at since 2009
13:28 khall just finished a new solution for bug 8559, this one should satisfy oleonard. It forces a librarian to either cancel the waiting hold, or revert it to a non-waiting hold when issuing a currently waiting item to a different patron.
13:28 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=8559 normal, P3, ---, koha-bugs, Needs Signoff , conflicting item statuses
13:28 oleonard Thanks khall I will test it today
13:28 * oleonard is finishing his follow-up for Bug 7067
13:28 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7067 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, kyle.m.hall, Signed Off , allow patron self registration via the opac
13:28 khall excellent! It should be pretty easy to test.
13:29 khall also good news! Let me know when you post your patch, and I'll give it a test.
13:30 * khall wonder what the record is for most comments on a bug. 7067 has 93 at the moment.
13:30 oleonard khall: 7067 doesn't hold the record, I checked :)
13:30 khall heh, do you know which bug is the current record holder?
13:31 oleonard Bug 5327 holds the record
13:31 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=5327 major, P3, ---, bart.tj, ASSIGNED , Unit tests required for all C4 modules
13:31 khall wow, 241. That's impressive.
13:31 jcamins Sure is.
13:31 jcamins Maybe time to open a new bug for that.
13:32 eythian star ratings only made it up to 91 :(
13:32 mtompset Well, email sent off to Colin regarding DateTime::TimeZone.
13:32 eythian I think that 5327 is cheating however, as it's a rolling bug
13:33 wajasu i'm glad your are persuing this mtompset. :)
13:33 khall it would be better to use it as a parent bug with many blocks, but I think that's me wanting to normalize it like a database.
13:33 jcamins khall: no, I think I'm in agreement with you.
13:34 jcamins It gets to be a bit much.

13:34 mveron Hi #koha
13:34 mtompset I thought bugs were supposed to be short, tiny, testable pieces?
13:34 eythian this is a bug about testing
13:35 mib_yqrzg1 joined #koha
13:35 wajasu do you guys use that debian unstable repo for things like latter cpan modules?
13:35 eythian no
13:36 eythian I build them myself if I must
13:36 jcamins No, I roll my own packages if I need something on in Squeeze.
13:36 mib_yqrzg1 Hello, where can I find which languages the Koha software is available in?
13:36 eythian translations?
13:36 wahanui translations are always committed on the stable branches
13:36 eythian hmm
13:36 jcamins translate?
13:36 eythian no wahanui, translations is http://translate.koha-community.org/
13:37 jcamins no, wahanui, translations is http://translate.koha-community.org/
13:37 wahanui i already had it that way, jcamins.
13:37 jcamins Oops.
13:37 eythian heh
13:37 jcamins mib_yqrzg1: you can look at that page to see the status of the various translations.
13:37 eythian mib_yqrzg1: that URL is the answer
13:37 khall is there any reason we shouldn't just use cpan minus and put all Koha it's own perl land separate from the OS's? We could then put the deps in the git repo and simplify installation.
13:37 jcamins Is there an echo in here?
13:37 eythian Echo?
13:38 jcamins lol
13:38 khall Echo?
13:38 wajasu ethian.  have you thought about using carton and cpanfile  to build a local::lib  of koha modules?  i can use -L to "contain" everything without using the OS distribution.
13:38 eythian wahanui: echo is <reply>echo#
13:38 wahanui OK, eythian.
13:38 eythian wahanui: echo =~ s/#/?/
13:38 wahanui OK, eythian
13:38 eythian echo?
13:38 wahanui echo?
13:38 jcamins khall: I don't know enough about cpan minus to comment.
13:38 mib_yqrzg1 Thank you. So, if I am understanding it correctly, the Polish version of Koha (to take one example) is in progress but not yet ready to be used?
13:38 eythian wajasu: nope. I just make .deb files and put them in the repo
13:39 khall it's a great tool. I've been using it for catalyst framework based applications.
13:39 eythian mib_yqrzg1: you'd have to have a look, it might well be the OPAC is well translated but the staff client isn't so much
13:39 wajasu i see carton and cpanfile in wheezy.
13:39 mib_yqrzg1 Thank you for your help!
13:39 jcamins mib_yqrzg1: the OPAC is mostly translated for 3.8.x.
13:39 jcamins Staff client, not so much.
13:40 Waylon Is there an echo in here?
13:40 Waylon hmmm.
13:40 mib_yqrzg1 I see. Thanks for explaining it to me.

14:40 eythian that's weird
14:40 eythian oh
14:40 eythian no it's not
14:40 eythian if author is '', then make it be ' '
14:40 eythian same as $boolean && do_something()
14:41 oleonard Okay, thanks
14:41 libsysguy that seems like a weird way to do it
14:41 libsysguy or at least not the most obvious way
14:43 oleonard Commit message for that change: "circulation.pl cleaned up. I think you'll like the difference. Less"
14:43 eythian it's a common shorthand, though I think I prefer using && as it looks a bit more distinctive.

14:51 tcohen but I'd like to test it anyway
14:53 tcohen do u know who can help on getting Koha::Contrib::tamil to be packaged?¿
14:53 wajasu i originally tested that bug.  i might take a shot at trying to build a deb package.  i can try.
14:54 tcohen wajasu, it's the same use of koha-index-daemon, adjusted to .deb per instance setup
14:55 wajasu i remember now. i am running debian in a VM.  and to build a deb pacakge pbuilder needs to bootstrap another debian (or chroot) within i think, and i hadn't allocated enought VM disk space, so i bailed. let me see if i can.
14:56 eythian yeah, you should have a fair bit of space
14:56 eythian enough for a minimal debian install
14:56 * eythian has to go, bye all

15:25 jcamins It's just sudo pbuilder create
15:25 jcamins (plus whatever arguments you want to pass it)

16:05 jcamins wajasu: removing that line fixes the problem, and doesn't garble UTF-8 commits?
16:06 wajasu i took headers = "content-Type: ... line out.   so no dups when patches are applied.
16:06 wajasu yes
16:06 jcamins Cool!

16:07 jcamins Yes it does.
16:07 tcohen jcamins, do u know how to disable tests for building ,debs?
16:07 jcamins Or you can delegate to someone else who is here who can log in to the wiki at present (not me).
16:07 jcamins tcohen: I do not, no. I've always wanted them to run.
16:07 tcohen wajasu, I can login to wiki
16:08 tcohen jcamins, they fail right now, and need to test that patch

16:08 jcamins I think you can skip tests using an environment variable.

16:17 liw jcamins, in that case, http://www.debian.org/doc/debi[…]bianrules-options specifies the env var to set (DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nocheck), but I don't recall how to get pbuilder to set it (maybe: sudo DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nocheck pbuilder ....)

16:34 jcamins Woohoo!
16:36 sophie_m left #koha

16:39 chris_n jumping into the melodrama that is :-)
16:40 jcamins lol
16:46 * jcamins wonders if Christophe is related to Andre Croullebois, bookseller at the end of the eighteenth century.
16:47 wajasu tcohen: are you working on the pbuilder for the Koha::Contrib::Tamil::IndexDaemon? should i try now?
16:47 jcamins Someone from BibLibre: you should ask him. Inquiring minds want to know. :)
16:57 wajasu are there alot of 3.6.x folks deployed.  i wonder if i should attach a 3.6.x patch to the bug as well.  so they can get their overdues notices running again.
16:58 wajasu maybe its not broken in 3.6, so i will forget about that.
16:58 jcamins wajasu: overdue notices are working.
16:58 jcamins (in 3.6.x)
16:59 wajasu ok
16:59 jcamins At least, they seem to be.
16:59 jcamins And I am refusing all e-mail-related patches at this time, since they only seem to cause more problems than they solve. :(
17:00 wajasu what does that mean.  you only pull from bugzilla?
17:00 jcamins No.
17:00 jcamins I mean I won't accept patches that touch Koha's e-mail generating code.
17:00 mbalmer ???
17:01 jcamins Could someone respond to bug 8624 saying that A) I tested it with a standard install initially, but a lot has been pushed since then, B) it's only famfamfam because small changes are better than big ones.
17:01 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=8624 minor, P5 - low, ---, jcamins, Passed QA , famfamfam should be outside theme directory
17:01 jcamins mbalmer: it's working now, and has had problems in 3.8.x and master. Why risk importing those problems to 3.6.x?
17:02 mbalmer yes, don't backport bugs, indeed.
17:03 wajasu ok. i'll do a standard install.

17:12 chris_n jcamins: what sort of problems
17:13 jcamins chris_n: sending baskets entirely stopped working for a while, and I think a change to overdue notices broke some of the placeholders.
17:21 chris_n so sending overdue notices did not break?
17:21 jcamins chris_n: I think it did not.
17:22 jcamins chris_n: but I use 3.6.x exclusively, and my libraries don't circulate.
17:22 * chris_n has been having some issues with od notices on 3.8.3

17:33 tcohen oh, jcamins_away
17:33 wahanui i guess jcamins_away is probably not here, but you don't have to take my word for it!
17:36 jcamins_away Wow, nice!
17:38 SJeffery Does anyone know why Koha changes the order that Z39.50 results are displayed in depending on the results?
17:39 jcamins SJeffery: I didn't know that Koha did, but I'll speculate that it depends on which server responds first.
17:40 SJeffery Hmm. I suppose that makes sense.
17:40 jcamins Unless you're only searching one server, in which case I am utterly perplexed.
17:41 SJeffery If I search for an OCLC number and have it search two servers, and both return one results, the results are not in the same order each time.
17:41 libsysguy anybody know if the latest version of jquery will be pushed to the stable branches
17:41 libsysguy jcamins, rangi, paul_p
17:41 jcamins libsysguy: no.
17:42 jcamins libsysguy: that is, I know the answer. It will not be.
17:42 * libsysguy just saw that email from oleonard
17:42 libsysguy is it just because only bug fixes get pushed and not enhancements?
17:42 libsysguy ^^ honest question
17:42 jcamins Mostly.
17:43 jcamins And the scope for regressions with a jQuery upgrade from 1.3.2 to 1.7.1 is *massive*.
17:43 * jcamins will allow that he is not rangi, so rangi might have a different opinion.
17:43 jcamins But he doesn't.
17:44 libsysguy we were on 1.3.2 o_0
17:44 libsysguy sweet baby jesus
17:44 jcamins Huge scope for regressions.
17:44 libsysguy we need a bot to pull in the latest stable releases for our releases that include other cod
17:44 libsysguy code*
17:45 jcamins And jQuery is already up to 1.8 something.
17:45 libsysguy think of all the features we are missing out on :p
17:45 libsysguy all those bouncing effects
17:45 datadoctor We just updated our jquery mobile and it broke a lot of our css.
17:46 jcamins libsysguy: if you use bouncing effects in the OPAC, you are dead to me. :P
17:46 wajasu tcohen: saw the email.  thx :)
17:46 libsysguy but how else am I supposed to engage the patrons by having their results use the quad-bounce-flash effect as they come in through my ajax queries

17:47 wajasu jcamins: I am sitting here with 8624 applied as a standard install.  with the SIGNED off patch.  any place/page i can go to confirm a fam icon?
17:48 jcamins wajasu: they're all over. Let me think.
17:48 libsysguy so I just went to rebase my working branch
17:48 SJeffery Wait a minute, we can have bouncing effects? Can we also use the blink tag? I will submit an enhancement request!
17:48 libsysguy guess where the conflicts are
17:48 libsysguy jquery
17:48 libsysguy -_-
17:49 jcamins Oh. XSLT results page.
17:49 jcamins All those little icons.
17:49 jcamins (on the OPAC)
17:49 libsysguy SJeffery please do, I really want some flashing banner adds on the intranet side
17:49 jcamins SJeffery: with a banner going across the top of the page saying "You win!"
17:49 datadoctor now I
17:49 libsysguy ^^
17:50 libsysguy but the add has to be attached to the cursor, so you're forced to click on it.  I'm pretty sure thats only a feature in jquery 1.8
17:50 libsysguy so now we have to upgrade
17:51 datadoctor am thinking it was a relative path problem - maybe the css was conistent between jquery mobile versions -  what do you see as the problem with the xslt results?
17:51 jcamins datadoctor: those are two different conversations.
17:51 datadoctor got it!
17:51 jcamins The XSLT results are where you can find a famfamfam icon.
17:52 jcamins jQuery is just a nuisance.
17:52 jcamins ;)
17:52 jcamins But an awesome one, of course.
17:52 libsysguy hey now, you're hitting a little close to home there jcamins :p
17:52 datadoctor jquery has insinuated itself into everything - is there a website that doesn't use it?
17:53 jcamins datadoctor: ... ones with blink tags? ;)
17:53 datadoctor just like we became dependent on java, until Oracle ate it!
17:53 libsysguy if they don't use jquery they use mootools or scriptilous
17:53 jcamins Maybe.
17:53 oleonard datadoctor: http://yuilibrary.com/ ?
17:53 libsysguy or yui
17:54 datadoctor Yes! YUI is the coolest. I vote for YUI!
17:54 oleonard datadoctor: And jquery hasn't "insinuated itself" into anything. It has become popular.
17:54 jcamins For the record, I really like jQuery.
17:55 libsysguy jQuery +1 from me
17:55 jcamins But changing the API between versions is really, *really* annoying.
17:56 * libsysguy can deal
17:56 datadoctor I'm testing oleonard, I use jquery on all my websites. Nonetheless I think the YUI tools are pretty cool.
17:56 datadoctor I mean teasing...
17:57 datadoctor And I am ++++ for jquery mobile - I think it is very cool!
17:58 libsysguy uses jquery-ui mobile for his drupal site
17:58 libsysguy its fancy

18:08 SJeffery Welcome to my world:)
18:09 jcamins SJeffery: Greek is not unusual. What's unusual is that it's using the Cyrillic alphabet and is around the Imperial seal of Russia.
18:09 jcamins Or something that looks remarkably like the Imperial seal.
18:09 YoungPublicLibrarian Hello everyone! I'm looking for a total expert on creating reports in Koha.

18:14 drojf YoungPublicLibrarian: i heard the wiki is kind of an expert http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]L_Reports_Library

18:33 koyauni joined #koha
18:33 * tcohen finds disturbing that he can't build deb packages even when using DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nocheck
18:33 koyauni hello koha!
18:34 jcamins tcohen: well, debian/rules is failing. It's not a test. That's the actual build process.
18:35 koyauni We are new user of Koha for our university Library, it has multi lingual records, but the search is giving accurate result in English only,
18:35 jcamins If you change the yui lines to refer to the new yui location, that might fix it.
18:35 jcamins I can't test that now.
18:35 koyauni when you search in Arabic it always shows the same records, any idea how this can be fixed please
18:36 jcamins Plus, the Solr dependencies can't be built on Squeeze, so I wouldn't be able to test anyway.
18:36 tcohen link to the new yui libs?
18:36 jcamins koyauni: you need to activate ICU. I am not sure if there are instructions you could easily follow.
18:36 jcamins icu?
18:36 wahanui icu is needed, if you want to search non-Roman characters with Zebra
18:36 tcohen path?
18:36 wahanui i heard path was set in C4/Templates.pm
18:37 jcamins tcohen: koha-tmpl/opac-tmpl/lib/yui and koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/lib/yui
18:37 koyauni where do I find this ICU
18:37 wahanui ICU is needed, if you want to search non-Roman characters with Zebra
18:38 koyauni I thought Koha is UTF8 enabled and language would not matter
18:38 jcamins koyauni: you have to configure it by editing the configuration manually. Unfortunately, it is a bit involved.
18:38 koyauni http://library.koyauniversity.org/
18:39 koyauni if I find instruction I might be able to do it
18:39 tcohen mmm, koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/lib/yui is not on master yet
18:39 jcamins tcohen: really? I didn't actually check whether the patch I was thinking of had been pushed or not.
18:40 jcamins Possibly this is not the issue after all, then.
18:40 tcohen (fixed debian/rules for opac at least, trying again)
18:45 wajasu jcamins: you know that idea i mentioned about the composable search plugin.  what really fueled it was, when cataloging, a search for a bib is not immediately available(against zebra).  so if we find no results, we could have a secondary search query directly against some of the database fields.
18:46 jcamins wajasu: but that would mean maintaining an additional set of search routines, which is not something we want to do. ;)
18:47 YoungPublicLibrarian joined #koha
18:47 tcohen wajasu, just use my patches you signed, and change the interval to 10''?
18:48 wajasu yeah. thats sufficient.
18:49 wajasu tcohen: after i look at this famfamfam patch, do you still want me to try the pbuilder for Koha::Contrib::Tamil?
18:49 tcohen you mean my patch? or creating .deb packages for Koha::Contrib::Tamil?
18:50 wajasu creating the .deb packages

18:52 wajasu ok
18:54 YoungPublicLibrarian Thank you jcamins!
18:54 koyauni there is setting in Home › Administration › System preferences › Searching preferences for ICU, but it says that ICU should be enabled, do you think a installation by koha-common would have the this enabled
18:55 jcamins koyauni: it is not enabled by default. As I said, configuring it is rather involved.
18:55 koyauni :( is there any instruction around I can follow please
18:56 jcamins Probably, but I don't know of any off the top of my head.
18:57 tcohen jcamins, should I send a folowup for bug 8623 to fix that debian/rules file?
18:57 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=8623 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, jcamins, Pushed to Master , Javascript libraries should be outside theme directories
18:57 jcamins And I'm not going to suggest you try instructions that I don't know for sure are good, because you'd end up in a much worse situation.
18:57 jcamins tcohen: yes please.
18:57 tcohen both previous patches are pushed, and should i obsolete them?
18:57 jcamins tcohen: make sure you include instructions for building packages for master (how you skipped the tests, and any other gotchas you encountered).
18:57 jcamins Yes please.
18:59 oleonard Bootstrap's UI widgets offer a compelling alternative to YUI buttons and menus (not to mention jQueryUI's)
19:00 jcamins oleonard: mtj was doing a proof of concept with bootstrap.
19:00 oleonard For the OPAC I think.
19:00 jcamins oleonard: does that mean I'd lose my sortable? :(
19:01 oleonard jcamins: Only if we decided to dump jQueryUI in favor of all Bootstrap
19:01 oleonard Right now we've got jqueryUI and YUI, we might do jqueryUI + Bootstrap
19:02 oleonard At least Bootstrap is being actively developed, unlike YUI, and has working menus, unlike jQueryUI
19:03 * oleonard hates to add yet another different library but we should use what works
19:03 jcamins Sounds good to me.
19:03 jcamins Especially ditching YUI.
19:04 cait oleonard: bootstrap has menus? :)

19:05 oleonard It has lots of stuff.
19:05 jcamins After the 3.12 elections are over, we should pick up the discussion about GPL3+ again.
19:05 cait yay :)
19:05 cait jcamins: sounds good to me
19:06 jcamins Then we could potentially switch from YUI to bootstrap. :)
19:06 oleonard Right because right now we couldn't use Bootstrap because of the license?
19:06 jcamins Exactly.
19:06 cait oh?
19:07 jcamins But there is nothing in the way of us upgrading to GPLv3+, now that SIPServer has been relicensed.
19:07 jcamins cait: Apache 2.0 and GPL 2 are incompatible.
19:07 cait ah
19:07 cait one more reason to revisit the discussion soon
19:07 cait what is the procedure for updating?
19:08 cait do we have to get all developers to agree or can we update gpl a bit easier?
19:08 oleonard Bicker about it for several months, do nothing.
19:08 jcamins lol
19:08 jcamins oleonard seems to understand the procedure.
19:08 cait and then return to it a year later and repeat?
19:09 jcamins Hopefully we'll be able to agree.
19:09 oleonard Actually it should be simpler now if we don't include "stick it to Liblime" as one of the main goals
19:09 oleonard (though doing that would be a bonus)
19:09 cait stick it to liblime?
19:09 oleonard punish them
19:10 drojf +1 for punish :P
19:10 jcamins oleonard: as I recall, the only substantial objection was SIPServer's license, and and that has been relicensed to 2+.
19:11 tcohen jcamins, what should be done with those solr files that break the build process??
19:12 jcamins tcohen: I don't know. I have been wondering that ever since they were pushed.
19:12 tcohen they look like might be installed in /etc/koha
19:12 koyauni jaxmins: can this one be the solution please
19:12 tcohen but don't know if they need to be installed in koha/sites/<site>
19:12 koyauni http://kohageek.pbworks.com/w/[…]guage%20searching
19:13 jcamins koyauni: I do not know, and I am not going to encourage you to do something that might break your system.
19:13 wajasu jcamins: ok i turned on the XSLT with "default" and see the BK.png in my details in opac and staff client.  goning to just add a comment (no signoff needed) right?
19:13 jcamins wajasu: right. :)
19:14 jcamins tcohen: maybe add those files to debian/rules and stick them in /etc/koha/[whatever their path is in the repo]?
19:14 koyauni then it will not be easy
19:15 jcamins koyauni: no, it will not.
19:15 jcamins It's not that the changes are inherently hard, but they do have to be done correctly, and it would be very easy to mess up other things.
19:16 tcohen anyone from biblibre?
19:17 jcamins tcohen: here's a thought for a temporary solution: just delete those files in debian/rules
19:17 tcohen ok, i'll do it
19:18 tcohen is there a bug for that?
19:19 jcamins No, I never even got that far in the build process to get that error.
19:20 jcamins The one time I tried building packages on master, it failed before it started because the Solr dependencies can't be installed.

19:34 jcamins Yay!
19:35 cait 120k of assets?
19:37 rangi Morning
19:37 rangi Hehe that joke fell flat
19:37 tcohen hi rangi
19:38 oleonard cait: Bootstrap js: 25KB, bootstrap CSS: 96KB
19:38 oleonard And the CSS can be slimmed down because we don't need all of it
19:39 oleonard rangi: ?
19:39 rangi Eythian's joke
19:40 koyauni no I want to just post a question see if anyone can help
19:40 koyauni http://koha-community.org/wp-admin/user/
19:40 jcamins oleonard: looks like bootstrap is a lot smaller than YUI.
19:40 rangi What's the license on bootstrap?
19:40 jcamins rangi: Apache 2.0.
19:40 jcamins koyauni: answers on the website are not answered.
19:40 jcamins Use the mailing list.
19:40 cait good morning rangi :)
19:40 koyauni but it does not have that option do it, I mean it is not a forum I guess
19:40 jcamins *questions on the website
19:40 jcamins No, it's a website.
19:40 rangi Cool that's compatible
19:40 jcamins rangi: only with GPL3/3+.
19:40 rangi Yep
19:41 koyauni <jcamins> there is not community base forum for koha then
19:41 oleonard The mailing list is that koyauni

19:42 koyauni jcamins do you think there will be an answer to my issue or this room is the best I get on koha
19:42 rangi Testing hardware
19:43 jcamins oleonard: looks like JS for YUI is ~212kb, and CSS is ~89k.
19:43 jcamins koyauni: you should send a message to the mailing list. Perhaps someone else will have done it recently.
19:43 santiago joined #koha
19:44 koyauni ok I try
19:44 jcamins But understand you may not get an immediate response. All the people in the Koha community who help out are doing it for free.
19:44 * tcohen needs an ssd on his workstation to test .deb building without freaking out
19:45 jcamins tcohen: hehe. It does take a while.
19:46 tcohen do u know how many GB does the pbuilder stuff need for building Koha?
19:46 tcohen maybe i'll try with a tmpfs
19:46 jcamins tcohen: I am not sure, no.
19:46 jcamins I'd like to set it up building on tmpfs when I get my new server... at least until I need the spare RAM for other things. :)
19:47 wajasu i tried it with a 6GB VM (why because i had 12GB RAM).  but can't recall what i ran into.
19:47 wajasu on tmpfs.
19:48 tcohen we bought some 128GB servers last month, if they're not full of VM right now i'll ask for some RAM for testing
19:49 tcohen wow, I got the .debs finally
19:50 jcamins tcohen: I have my laptop e-mail me when the build finishes, it takes so long.
19:50 rangi Maybe after we finish dealing with lawyers over spurious trademarks we can revisit joining spi, then have a way to handle donations and set up a build farm :-)

19:57 rangi Yep
19:57 rangi Opensuse have a build farm
19:58 rangi Could maybe use
19:58 rangi Ok my stop gotta get the rental
19:58 jcamins Have a safe trip.
20:00 wajasu jcamins: just for the record.  when i was testing the famfam patch, i noticed the suggestion HASH() showing.  did you already address that in another bug?

20:45 jcamins Hi there, sekjal. How's UMass? :)
20:45 sekjal jcamins: bumpin'.  all the students have swarmed back
20:46 sekjal and speaking of swarms, all evening activities are cancelled due to West Nile and East Equine Encephalitis risk
20:46 jcamins Uhhhh... really?
20:46 wahanui Of course!
20:46 jcamins Wow.
20:46 jcamins That's different.
20:46 sekjal 4 cases of EEE so far
20:46 jcamins Yikes!
20:47 sekjal hopefully we'll get our first hard frost soon
20:47 bag wow
20:47 jcamins Reasons 1 and 2 to not move to Massachusetts: West Nile virus and East Equine Encephalitis.
20:48 bag enh west nile is not that big a deal to us - but to younglings and oldlings - it is
20:48 bag it's like the flu for us
20:48 bag us being middle aged decently healthly people
20:49 bag now EEE that's a different issue
20:49 jcamins I have to tell you, those two things were not issues that I had previously considered.
20:50 bag oh west nile - most of the mosquitos on the east coast have got it (well most = high percentage)
20:50 bag I used to study birds - pre koha - and a west nile study was one that I was invovled in
20:50 jcamins Huh. You learn something new every day.
20:51 bag we studied mosquitos - near bird nests in maryland…
20:52 bag Basically always be careful of misquitos biting you - if you're going into a mosquito area - wear some bug repellant  :)
20:53 jcamins That I knew. I am a mosquito magnet.
20:53 bag oh sorry
20:53 bag Sonja is one too
20:53 bag she's sweet ;)
20:53 bag so I guess that means you're sweet too (heh) ;)
20:54 jcamins Yeah, though I'm growing out of it as I age. :P
20:55 * sekjal still gets devoured
20:56 sekjal thankfully, I've got a pretty good immune system
20:56 sekjal anyway, I've got to get to my bus.  just wanted to pop in and wave "hi"
20:56 * sekjal waves
20:57 jcamins Hi!
20:57 bag sekjal should be required to sign in here more :)
20:58 jcamins Hehe. Agreed.
21:14 wajasu what does "PATCH-Sent (DO NOT USE)" mean. Though it says pushed to master.  bug 6130
21:14 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6130 minor, PATCH-Sent (DO NOT USE), ---, henridamien, Pushed to Master , Letters: Fixing Subject encoding
21:16 jcamins wajasu: it means do not use that status.
21:16 jcamins Oh, on an existing bug?
21:16 tcohen wajasu, can I provide u with a koha-common*.deb  file for you to test?
21:16 tcohen (once I get it created)
21:16 wajasu i wonder if bug 4420 is a dup.
21:16 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=4420 normal, P5 - low, ---, henridamien, NEW , umlauts or diacritics in subject of notices are deleted
21:16 jcamins That means the patch predates the creation of the "Needs signoff" etc. statuses.
21:18 wajasu the reason i am looking at these is because when if fixed bug 8378  i think i addressed NFC coding and display of email subject/header fields  and also the attachment filenames, so one can have unicode diacritics in them too.
21:18 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=8378 critical, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, Pushed to Master , <fine> syntax not working on overdues anymore
21:18 jcamins They may well be obsolete.
21:19 jcamins If they are, mark them as resolved.
21:19 wajasu i guess i can just try master and send diacritics, then mark them resolved.  ok then.
21:22 wajasu tcohen: sure.  i just haven't installed debs directly.  can i use agt-get or such?
21:22 tcohen dpkg -i <file>
21:22 wajasu ok
21:22 jcamins wajasu: use dpkg -i ${file}
21:22 wajasu let me know
21:24 tcohen http://es.koha-community.org/kc_files/
21:27 wajasu so i assume you want me to install the koha-common and the koha ones.
21:27 wajasu .deb
21:27 tcohen just koha-common
21:28 tcohen right jcamins?
21:28 jcamins Yup.
21:28 tcohen (i'm not a packages expert at all)
21:28 wajasu can i do it on a VM that already has koha-common installed, or a fresh VM?
21:28 * jcamins was actually typing "Just koha-common" when tcohen said it, but thought that repeating him was silly.
21:28 jcamins wajasu: it will replace the current version of koha-common.
21:28 tcohen don't try it on your production server hehe
21:29 wajasu i'm creating a new VM.  give me a few minutes
21:30 tcohen hmm, dependecies, try installing koha-common from the debian.koha-communty.org repo first so it pulls all the deps
21:32 wajasu my vm build script applies the kc koha-common.  so after the first boot, i will transfer your deb into the VM and try to apply it.
21:32 tcohen and u need to cpan Koha::Contrib::Tamil too
21:32 tcohen !!
21:33 wajasu whats in your koha-common?  i thought it was the Tamil stuff?
21:33 wajasu oh. you are just getting the init script into koha common
21:35 tcohen it can be done (including tamils code into koha)
21:35 tcohen i was not sure what was the best
21:35 wajasu i thought you were going to build a  Koha::Contrib::Tamil  .deb  for putting into the kc.org repo
21:35 tcohen bug 8774
21:35 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=8774 major, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, NEW , make a deb package of Koha::Contrib::Tamil::IndexerDaemon
21:36 tcohen that's another bug this depends on
21:37 wajasu if its separate, later if we want to use plack as a server, that talks to zebra, it might be easier if its a separate package.
21:37 wajasu ok lets get through this one.
21:37 wajasu i'll cpan it
21:37 wajasu give me 20 min
21:39 jcamins Definitely better to keep the Tamil indexer in a separate package.

23:39 talljoy i just filled her in.
23:40 wajasu jcamins: i ran tcohen's koha-common but got an error for about every line of code it hit.  1st i had a libtext-unaccent-perl that it needed.
23:41 jcamins wajasu: you're going to run into lots of errors because Master\'s dependencies can't be installed on Squeeze.
23:41 wajasu do you think it uninstalled all original koha-common, and then had missing deps?
23:41 wajasu ok
23:42 jcamins If you run apt-get install it will install the missing dependencies that it is able.
23:43 jcamins (`apt-get install`)
23:43 jcamins Or maybe it's `apt-get -f install`
23:44 wajasu ok

23:51 jcamins If you do, the patch doesn'twroork.
23:52 Luke joined #koha
23:53 wajasu this VM already has koha-common installed and everything ready at boot.  i just usually hit the webinstaller and init the db.  but what i did was cpan Koha::Contrib::Tamil and then dkpg -i koha-common
23:54 wajasu it stared unpacking the old (possibly uninstalling the original one), then had an error, missing libtext-unaccent-perl, so i apt-get install libtext-unaccent-perl, and after that installs it automatically retries the new koha-common.
23:55 wajasu the webinstaller/login page comes up.
23:57 wajasu drop this.  the day is over for me.
23:57 wajasu thx.
