Time Nick Message 23:50 chris cool 23:50 pianohacker I'll bug jwagner, she's more up to speed on that enhancement's journey through the corporate pipes 23:48 chris maybe you might wanna update bug with that, so kf doesnt duplicate work 23:48 chris good news 23:38 pianohacker I think it should be coming soon 23:38 pianohacker I did work on displaying serials info for PTFS 23:37 pianohacker hmm 22:06 chris awesome 22:04 cait_laptop added a screenshot to the bug and going to bed now - got late :) good night #koha 22:03 cait_laptop gmcharlt: thx 22:01 cait_laptop ah ok 22:01 cait_laptop its marked as enhancement, but I think its more a bug, because its really a problem with serials and item level holds 22:01 gmcharlt any bug that has a status of NEW, not ASSIGNED, has not actually been specifically taken up by anybody 22:01 gmcharlt yep 22:01 cait_laptop its yours, can I take it? :) 22:00 munin` 04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3380 enhancement, P5, ---, gmcharlt@gmail.com, NEW, Serial enumeration / chronology should display in opac holds interface. 22:00 cait_laptop I just sent a patch for @bug 3380 22:00 gmcharlt cait_laptop: what's up? 22:00 cait_laptop gmcharlt: around? 21:43 chris INSTALL.debian-lenny refers to this file 21:43 chris install_misc/debian-lenny.packages also has the list of packages 21:42 chris yeah, INSTALL.debian-lenny is what you are after 21:42 chris :-) 21:42 jhaig Hmmm, no it isn't. It is http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=koha_3_install_guide_ubuntu_hardy Perhaps I should have looked at the koha tarball before launching straight into installing the OS :-) 21:41 chris is that the INSTALL.debian-lenny document? 21:41 jhaig Maybe I'll try it then, but my library isn't really that big. 21:40 chris cool 21:40 jhaig I have found it - the package name was idzebra-2.0, not idzebra as the document said. 21:34 chris its a pita to get going, but the search is lightyears ahead of nonzebra 21:34 chris i would heartily recommend zebra, even for tiny libraries 21:33 chris jhaig: why not? 20:58 jhaig For the record, idzebra doesn't appear to be in the standard lenny repositories, or in IndexData, so I assume it would be in backports. I'm not intending to install zebra anyway, though. 20:44 cait_laptop chris: thx, dont know what the mistake was, just redid what I had tried before. 20:40 jhaig Thanks. 20:40 chris jhaig: you shouldnt need backports with lenny 20:40 chris well done cait_laptop :) 20:39 Ropuch Bah, If any of you ever considered buying D-link dir-615 router, don't. 20:36 jhaig I think I'll disable backports for the moment, and see if I get problems later. 20:36 cait_laptop chris: here? found a bug for my problem and got enumchron displayed in opac :) 20:36 Ropuch I believe not, i'm just saying how it's look like when using testing like i do :) 20:34 jhaig But are you saying that 'testing' is needed? 20:33 jhaig I'm following http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=koha_3_install_guide_ubuntu_hardy which indicates you need backports. However, this is not the latest Ubuntu, so perhaps that is why backports are needed. 20:32 Ropuch Only added entry in testing sources.list i can see 20:32 Ropuch deb http://ftp.indexdata.dk/debian lenny main 20:30 jhaig And likewise, lenny-backports (instead of etch-backports) 20:29 jhaig I assume that in the ubuntu guide, I need all the obvious modifications (such as changing the IndexData repository path to include debian and lenny instead of ubuntu and hardy). 20:29 Ropuch hi richard 20:28 richard hi 20:28 jhaig That is one thing I was hoping for. My preference for a server is actually CentOS, but I would need to use CPAN, which would mess up the package management. 20:25 Ropuch s no need to install them from cpan 20:25 Ropuch So there 20:25 Ropuch afair all perl modules can be installed via apt 20:24 Ropuch Quite painless 20:24 Ropuch I've installed koha on debian testing recently 20:22 jhaig Thanks. I would have thought that, but I don't know how picky koha is regarding some of the package version numbers. 20:22 Ropuch It does 20:21 chris_n jhaig: ubuntu install should do for debian 20:17 chris_n for a minute 20:17 chris_n owen: back 20:15 jhaig I am trying koha for the first time (well, I was playing around with the VMware version yesterday). I'm starting to install it and I remember somewhere seeing that most people use Debian, so I thought that would be the best bet. However, the closest install guide I have found for version 3 is for Ubuntu (on http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php). Is this close enough, or is there a Debian install guide somewhere? Thanks. 19:56 chris ok, bus time, bb in 40 mins or so 19:56 cait_laptop first I have to redo what I did some days ago - accidently killed some of the changes I did 19:55 cait_laptop thx chris, this is a very kind offer :) - I will try a little longer to solve it on my own and will send you one when get stuck 19:54 chris send it to work chrisc@catalyst.net.nz 19:54 chris and ill have a look and tell ya whats up 19:54 chris if you want, you can send me a patch 19:54 chris i have to catch a bus soon 19:53 cait_laptop chris: yes... but I think I dont get the variable names right 19:53 schuster ;) my laptop bottomed out wireless.. 19:53 chris that sounds about right cait_laptop :) 19:53 chris schuster: welcome back 19:52 cait_laptop chris: I think I dont understand really how the variables work. I think I have to add it to the array in opac-reserves.pl and add a column in opac-reserves.tmpl 19:52 schuster wb ??? 19:51 chris cait_laptop: hmm, is it getting passed through by the script? 19:51 chris wb schuster 19:50 cait_laptop I think it should not be too difficult, but it seems I cant get it right 19:49 chris righto 19:49 cait_laptop chris: I have a new problem - we need items.enumchron shown in opac-reserves.tmpl for item level holds on bound volumes of journals and single issues 19:48 chris *nod* 19:47 cait_laptop I do that, but someone else might accidently translate and break something 19:47 chris either works :) 19:47 chris (or leave untranslated) 19:47 chris for the filenames just copy and submit 19:47 chris yep, we will clean it up 19:46 cait_laptop but its great that we can have a German xslt now - so dont misunderstand me. Im really like it :) 19:45 cait_laptop there are some things in the po that should better not get translated. I think I saw file names of images and paths 19:45 chris thanks to HDL 19:45 chris but it does mean you can run with XSLT on, and have it in german too 19:44 chris at least for 3.0.x .. soon for 3.2.x too, so there will be work there too 19:44 chris hehe yeah, we got the xsl being translated now too 19:44 Ropuch helo everybody 19:41 cait_laptop hi Ropuch 19:37 Ropuch ;> 19:33 cait_laptop you keep me busy with translation! :) 19:33 cait_laptop hi chris 19:32 chris back 19:31 cait_laptop hi jdavidb 19:31 jdavidb Hi cait_laptop. :) 19:29 owen chris_n? 19:29 cait_laptop hi #koha :) 19:21 * jdavidb mumbles, "30% chance of rain? bah! Nothing within 50 miles of here!" 19:21 * jdavidb glares at schuster, just for good measure. 19:21 schuster ;) 19:20 schuster schuster glares at boss and jdavidb and owen_ 19:19 * jdavidb glares at owen and owen_ 19:19 * owen_ glares at owen 19:12 chris wash the FUD off 19:12 * chris goes to have a shower 19:04 chris want a copy of my opensource SAS and um Oracle? 19:04 chris heya nicomo 19:03 nicomo hi chris 18:51 chris back again 18:07 chris_n bbiab 18:07 chris_n gotta go populate one of these and flush out the bugs 18:06 rhcl Don't know why anybody would want to do it, but those modded old firewalls essentially are/become generic computers that could run Koha. 18:05 rhcl I mess around some with old commercial firewalls, like the Firebox and VelociRaptor series--install HD/flash drives and opensource firewall software like Smoothwall et al. 18:04 chris_n in the end I could not get the resolution set correctly and had to move to a vbox install of xp 18:03 chris_n I did some of the work with pcbartist running under wine on ubuntu 18:03 chris_n rhcl: that is the only down-side; but it will run under wine 18:03 * chris_n found a web-browser written in assembler for a pic and thought of porting koha to assembler to run on it... 18:02 rhcl looks like pcb artist only runs on windows 18:01 chris_n the dimmer packs are getting pic based DMX controllers added next which will be controlled by open-source lighting software 18:00 chris_n the boards were fine, but that company was much more expensive and the layout software was cheesy 18:00 chris_n rhcl: the first project was a bunch of 2.4KW dimmer packs 17:59 chris_n and the price was excellent for qty 25 17:59 chris_n these look very nice 17:59 chris_n rhcl: this is the second board design I've done, but the first with Advanced Circuits 17:56 rhcl Interesting. Is this your first batch? How do they look? 17:55 chris_n I designed these with free software from http://www.4pcb.com (Advanced Circuits) who also manufactured them 17:54 chris_n rhcl: nothing as complex as a MB... yet ;-) 17:54 chris_n rhcl: these are basically an FM receiver which works with our "hearing impaired" system 17:53 rhcl I need a couple of Shuttle XPC motherboards, which Shuttle won't sell aftermarket. 17:52 rhcl chris_n, so uh, how exactly do you go about designing pc boards? motherboards? who does the fabrication? 17:47 * chris_n breaks into a shipment of pc boards he designed 17:41 chris_n and results in a hash ref being undefined 17:40 chris_n looks like GetItemInfosOf does not return any item data for a given bib 17:38 chris_n but maybe some corruption in an item record 17:37 chris_n maybe not 17:36 chris_n specifically 'itemnumber' 17:36 chris_n looking at that line it looks like it may be a data corruption problem 17:35 owen Lots of errors from XSLT.pm 17:35 owen Hmmm... looking at my error logs I see a bunch of stuff coming up from a regular search on the staff side 17:33 owen My About page reports the same: 3.01.00.061 17:33 * chris_n 's is version 3.01.00.061 17:33 chris_n which version are you running? 17:32 chris_n hmm... search works fine here 17:32 owen Yes: I tried a title search, a keyword search, and a date-limited search 17:31 chris_n ie click the 'Search' button? 17:31 chris_n owen: so the error is thrown when you perform the search? 17:31 chris_n owen: nope that was another issue with profiles 17:30 pianohacker bbl 17:30 * pianohacker goes to find pain meds and an orthopedist 17:29 pianohacker cya 17:29 * chris goes back to sleep 17:28 * chris_n looks 17:28 chris_n but it has not hit the main repo yet 17:28 chris_n owen: I think I forwarded a patch for that bug a couple of days ago 17:28 wizzyrea PH LOL 17:28 * jdavidb rolls his eyes at pianohacker, then realizes he'll need 'em for a meeting in a few. 17:28 owen Can't use an undefined value as a HASH reference at /home/oleonard/kohaclone/labels/label-item-search.pl line 129. 17:27 owen I'm trying to create a batch, clicking the "add items" button, doing a search for items to add... 17:27 * chris_n sneezes 17:27 pianohacker grind grind grind 17:27 chris_n owen: which one.... error that is 17:27 pianohacker I have an open source WoW. I call it a pepper mill 17:27 wizzyrea give me back my AP PoM Pyro! 17:27 owen Hi chris_n, I was just doing some template tweaks on the new labels branch and encountered an error 17:26 wizzyrea because that's really what I want 17:26 wizzyrea ooh, did you fix mages?! 17:26 chris_n lol 17:26 wizzyrea just funny :) 17:26 chris i rewrote WoW as opensource, its all on my hd, im not releasing it though, but it is open source, trust me 17:26 pianohacker hi owen 17:26 wizzyrea oh, it's not bothersome 17:26 * jdavidb chuckles. 17:26 chris_n hi owen 17:26 * owen is back 17:25 chris well that bit doesnt bother me, its the fact that it's being labelled open source, when it isnt. 17:24 chris heh 17:24 wizzyrea ^.^ 17:24 wizzyrea carrier class data center.... you mean... amazon? 17:24 * chris_n wonders what is so hard to understand about the two words 'open' and 'source'? 17:22 chris sounds like a great idea 17:22 chris_n that will allow those who don't want the extra "bulk" of G::M to opt not to install it 17:22 chris_n I think I'm going to leave GD in place for the patron image stuff and just require G::M if one will be using the Patron Card Creator 17:20 chris awesome :) 17:20 chris_n chris: G::M is working great now 17:20 pianohacker One-way sharing is still sharing, right? 17:19 chris_n grrrr 17:19 magnusenger "The ability to share customizations and the flexibility that is offered by open-source software was a huge reason for us choosing Koha." Yay! 17:18 chris someone needs to tell pamela it isnt opensource until its released 17:17 chris_n hi chris 17:17 pianohacker hehe 17:17 chris http://www.librarytechnology.org/ltg-displaytext.pl?RC=14252 ... it begins 17:17 * chris_n tries to type without sounding too nasal 17:17 pianohacker ouch, I'm sorry 17:17 pianohacker fear my one-handed touch typing skills 17:17 chris_n pianohacker: been doing fine other than trying to get rid of a nasty cold 17:16 chris_n pianohacker must have scared nengard off ;-) 17:13 pianohacker right handed dvorak :) 17:13 nengard oh no!! 17:13 pianohacker broke two on left hand in bicycle accident 17:13 nengard and how will you type with a cast on??? hehe - I had surgery on my wrist while in college and the brace I had to wear made it nearly impossible to type 17:12 nengard what happened to your fingers pianohacker? 17:05 pianohacker How are you doing? 17:03 pianohacker heh, not yet. I go to see the orthopedist today, maybe get a cast 17:01 chris_n hey pianohacker... fingers healing? 16:59 pianohacker hi, chris_n 16:59 chris_n full of lunch and sleepy ;-) 16:59 chris_n owen: here now 16:44 munin` owen: chris_n was last seen in #koha 2 hours, 24 minutes, and 5 seconds ago: * chris_n is no JS guru though 16:44 owen @seen chris_n 16:42 kf time to leave work now :) bye #koha! 16:42 kf jwagner: just fighting a little with configuration right now, will ask on irc another time. 16:32 kf jwagner: do you have libraries charging fines and sending notices for it? 16:15 jwagner This particular site is a government research library. There are individual authors, but the agency itself is also an author. In the display, it looked like the agency name only applied to the second author (the period in between is almost invisible). So I was trying to set apart all the 110/710 fields from the personal author names. 16:13 magnusenger jwagner: sounds good to me 16:13 owen jwagner: I'm not entirely clear what you're doing, because I'm not paying close attention ;) ...but anything that improves clarity I would assume is general-interest 16:11 jwagner I'm working on a patch for a few other minor XSLT things -- would people like this included, or should I keep it local for this site? 16:10 jwagner So that a sample By line in the results list might look like by Scurlock, James D ; First 700 Name ; Second 700 Name . Corporate author: First 110 Name ; First 710 Name ; Second 710 Name . 16:08 jwagner Let's see if other people want the fix I just used it for. If you have multiple 110 and 710 fields (corporate author), and also 100/700 personal author, the OPAC results list can be confusing. I had a record with a 100, 700, and 710, and the display looked like the 710 only belonged to the second author (the 700) rather than being a separate author. I'm tucking in a text label of Corporate Author: before the first 110/710. 16:00 kf grats :) 15:58 jwagner magnusenger and others, the <xsl:when test="position()=1"> works to identify the first field. Yippee! 15:08 jwagner magnusenger, I'll give that a shot, thanks. 15:02 magnusenger jwagner: how about just <xsl:when test="position()=0"> or <xsl:when test="position()=1"> (not sure if they start counting at 0 or 1...) 15:00 jwagner I tried that & got a fatal error. I'll look at the other variations on that site, though. Thanks. 14:59 jwagner Hmm. That seems to be using <xsl:if test="position() = last()"> 14:58 owen jwagner: Maybe this? http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2002/08/07/ducharme.html 14:57 kf perhaps wolfgang would know - but cant ask him right now 14:51 jwagner (in the case of multiple occurences of the field, that is) 14:51 jwagner XSLT question for people -- there's a check for when a field is last in line (to control ending punctuation): <xsl:when test="position()=last()"> -- is there any equivalent function to see if it's first in line? Changing last() to first() didn't work. Any ideas? The goal is to put some text/punctuation BEFORE a particular field. 14:20 * chris_n is no JS guru though 14:20 chris_n ie. what is inside the parenthesis 14:20 chris_n mason: I think you need to quote the parameters 14:18 mason thanx for help tho :) 14:18 mason anyhoo, it is late here - and wayyy too late for JS 14:17 mason var check = $("div[class='geo']").filter([textContent=geoVal]); 14:17 mason oops, this even.. 14:17 mason s/but/by/ 14:16 mason var check = $("div[class='geo']").filter([textContent=+geoVal+]); 14:16 mason but when i correct it, but removing the redundant quotes, like this - it barfs... 14:15 mason var check = $("div[class='geo']").filter("[textContent="+geoVal+"]"); 14:15 mason oops, bad paste.... 14:14 mason var foo = $("div[class='geo']").filter([textContent="+geoVal+"]); 14:14 mason so this clumsy looking thing works OK ... 14:13 mason hmm, my example seems to barf if i *dont* quote it :/ 14:11 * chris_n thinks that if everyone just had somebody else's problems all problems would be solved 14:10 chris_n mason: you have an excuse.... its late where you are I think ;-) 14:09 chris_n in this respect it is unlike perl as perl would do fine with "div[class=$ddd]" 14:09 mason heh, i didnt even click to that, from the examples i was looking at 14:09 chris_n so by adding additional "" and concatenation operators, it now concatenates the literal value of $ddd into the string 14:08 chris_n mason: the "" around "div[class=ddd]" cause the JS parser to interpret all that is in between literally 13:59 mason which is what *seemed* to happen for me... 13:59 mason i have to ask.... how does wrapping concat operators around a string - make JS parse it as a $var 13:58 Ropuch I think it;s just a concatenate operator 13:57 mason sure, thats how i understood it too?!? 13:57 Ropuch It works like . in perl 13:57 Ropuch Nope 13:56 mason so - in JS ... a '+' either side of a +string+ , declares it as a variable? 13:55 Ropuch I don't know jquerry at all ;) 13:54 Ropuch hehehe 13:54 mason (the programing language that is, not the state-of-mind) 13:53 mason i reckon jquery is the modern equiv of brainf*ck 13:53 Ropuch Hi Nate 13:52 Ropuch ;> 13:52 mason stupid syntax for a stupid problem ;) 13:51 Nate hello all! 13:51 mason cheers, that works perfectly! 13:49 Ropuch mason: var myDivs = $("div[class="+ddd+"]"); 13:44 mason seems like a stupid thing to be stuck on... 13:43 mason how to tell jquery 'ddd' is a $variable , not a "string" 13:42 mason this doesnt work as i want :/ 13:41 mason . 13:41 mason var myDivs = $("div[class=ddd]"); 13:41 mason var ddd = 'moo'; 13:41 mason now, i want to replace the literal string 'moo' - with a variable-name, like this.... 13:40 mason . 13:40 mason var myDivs = $("div[class='moo']"); 13:40 mason this works just fine... 13:39 mason this one is impressively basic :/ 13:39 mason another late night jquery Q for anyone? 13:09 schuster This is checkout - and by Patron. 13:08 schuster I type in schuster and it says "No patron matched 'schuster'" - on my system it has a NEW button. 13:07 schuster OK - but how does one "Add a borrower" - if we don't find one. I'm on hdl_laptop's test environment. 13:07 gmcharlt ok 13:07 nengard for the the non-ambitious option :) I just send you two patches - one that is the original and then one with the fixes 13:06 gmcharlt if you're ambitious, try using git rebase --interactive to squash the patches 13:06 gmcharlt nengard: easiest would be to resend the entire patch series: original patch + patches correcting it 13:05 schuster OOO - Love the filter when patron is selected to search... 13:04 hdl_laptop thx 13:02 nengard gmcharlt i have an issue - i only changed 2 of the files that were in my previous patch - so how do I recreate the entire patch for you? or should I just submit these 2 files and say they replace the other 2 I submitted before? 13:00 schuster OK thanks - but when an item is returned at lib1 if there is a hold for someone at lib2 it would force a transfer correct? 12:59 munin` 04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3656 enhancement, P5, ---, henridamien@koha-fr.org, NEW, Specify fields to be omitted from the patron record 12:59 jwagner hdl_laptop, bug created -- Bug 3656 12:59 hdl_laptop Users from lib1 cannot put holds on lib2 and only 3 on lib4 but 10 on lib1 12:58 hdl_laptop limiting holds for a borrower on a location 12:57 schuster hdl_laptop - for circulation parameters or limiting holds to a location? 12:56 hdl_laptop henridamien@koha-fr.org 12:56 Colin Of course in the UK postcodes are a commercial secret and you have to pay big bucks to get a list (or download it from wikileaks) 12:56 jwagner hdl_laptop, what's the email address to assign the bug to you? 12:55 jwagner I thought I remembered something like that. But I like hdl_laptop's fix better than my proposed syspref only for Street Number. 12:55 hdl_laptop schuster: iirc this is the same thing as CircControlBranch applied to Reserves in order to check that it enforce reserve rules. 12:54 Colin jwagner: The separate steet number maybe because in many European countries the postcode can generate the whole address except the street number 12:54 nengard i'll fix it 12:54 nengard okey dokey gmcharlt - will do - i misunderstood what the bor_notes were supposed to be so my default makes no sense 12:54 jwagner hdl_laptop, I didn't file one on my Street Number question yet -- is that what you were asking? 12:54 gmcharlt send an email to the patches list accompanying the new patch 12:54 hdl_laptop jwagner: or is there one there already ? 12:53 jwagner Tell Galen :-) 12:53 nengard question to any experienced developers - if you want to withdraw a patch that hasn't been pushed and submit a new one - how do you do that?? 12:53 jwagner nengard, yes that was quite a nice feature. The developer did a really good job on it. Best part is that it doesn't overwrite the existing circ & opac notes, so you can keep any long-term notes you need there. I've seen notes like "child has parent's permission to borrow video games" -- things that shouldn't get overwritten. 12:52 hdl_laptop if you want 12:52 jwagner hdl_laptop, you mean file a bug asking for the syspref on unused patron fields? 12:52 nengard :) 12:52 schuster Question - about - Biblibre - test site as noted in IRC. I am able to login - and went to Administration and see "ReservesControlBranch" but can't find any documentation on it - can anyone tell me what it is supposed to do? 12:52 nengard okay - i'm off to poke and prod and document 12:52 nengard awesome 12:51 jwagner Both notes will show on the patron checkout tab for staff. The notes directed to the patron will also show in the OPAC when the patron logs in. 12:51 nengard more than a note - in the sense of the patron notes 12:51 nengard a reminder 12:51 nengard so these are notes to be read to the patron or the staff when the patron is there in person 12:51 hdl_laptop jwagner: pls file a bug and assign that to me, I will send the patch asap 12:51 jwagner For staff, a canned note might be "Patron needs to bring in driver's license to verify ID" 12:51 nengard okay - well my default in the patch i just sent is no good :) 12:50 nengard Ahhhh 12:50 jwagner The classic one we've been using for testing for patrons is "You left your umbrella in the library" 12:50 nengard for some reason i was thinking these were notes on the patron record - not the patron checkout record 12:50 nengard so what's an example checkout note you might wnt to add? 12:50 nengard thank you 12:50 nengard jwagner OH!!!! 12:50 jwagner We spotted a problem on a few records -- if the patron didn't have any existing alerts (holds, fines, whatever), the Add a New Message link wasn't always showing. That's fixed in our test systems; we'll have to do a new patch for it when we get it final. 12:49 jwagner First create the BOR_NOTES authorized value category & some canned notes. Then, in patron record, go to Checkout tab and click Add a New Message. You can direct the message to the patron or other staff. You can select one of the canned notes or enter free-text. 12:48 nengard even with the authorized values set 12:48 nengard I want to document it, but I'm not seeing how to add them 12:48 nengard can you tell me how to use the custom borrower notes? 12:48 jwagner I'm here! 12:48 hdl_laptop Problem is that we should then have some screen to edit that. 12:48 nengard was hoping to find jwagner here :) 12:47 nengard hiya 12:47 chris_n hi nengard 12:47 jwagner Having a syspref to just list all the fields to NOT display would be really useful. 12:47 jwagner I have one site that does not collect ANY address info (govt site, privacy reasons). I ended up doing alternate templates for patron display/edit to strip out just about all the fields. 12:47 hdl_laptop But I could commit that. 12:47 hdl_laptop jwagner: No. This was a special request. 12:47 chris_n jwagner: or like cloths hangers 12:47 kf I think its a great idea, a list of fields you dont use similar to mandatory fields 12:46 hdl_laptop Or this would boil down to creating framewors for input data. 12:46 jwagner hdl_laptop, that would be a really useful syspref -- have you submitted it yet? Haven't seen it. 12:46 kf cant do without them, but perhaps organize them better? 12:46 kf I think the new editor will help 12:46 hdl_laptop I created a sys pref that would be used as BorrowerUnused fields in template generation. 12:46 jwagner Yes, those sysprefs breed like mice, don't they??? 12:45 jwagner kf, I'm not talking about removing it from the table, just from the patron edit screen. 12:45 chris_n hehe 12:45 hdl_laptop YASP Yet another Syspref.... 12:45 jwagner Would a syspref to turn street number on/off be useful for other sites? 12:45 kf but should street number not be available for all addresses in this case? 12:45 hdl_laptop could be. 12:44 jwagner I thought I remembered something about it being European. 12:43 hdl_laptop kf: jwagner this is i think owed to the french normalization of adress. 12:36 jwagner That's a thought. 12:35 kf I will use jquery from owen to hide fields in patron data that we will not use 12:35 kf cant speak for european librares in general, but we import street number together with the street 12:34 jwagner Can someone refresh my memory on the patron Street Number field? I seem to remember that the separate street number (as opposed to the address field) is used primarily in European libraries. Is that correct? One of my sites wants to hide street number so as to force staff to use address. I'm wondering if a syspref & patch to turn it on/off would be of general use. 12:32 * chris_n greets jwagner 12:32 jwagner Good morning, all. 11:57 jdavidb Mornin', chris_n 11:57 chris_n g'morning 11:50 |Lupin| bye everybody 10:56 hdl_laptop hi everybody in fact 10:56 hdl_laptop hi gm 10:25 |Lupin| gmcharlt: yeah, I think I can grep and check everything... 10:24 |Lupin| gmcharlt: I'll submit a patch that does so, then 10:24 gmcharlt misc/cronjobs/stats/monthly_circulation_statistics.pl is the only script activiely using it, although it's mentioned but commented out from opac/opac-search.pl 10:24 |Lupin| gmcharlt: ok ! 10:24 gmcharlt remove it completely 10:23 |Lupin| gmcharlt: yes, for example... so what to do ? just fix the function or remove it completely ? 10:23 gmcharlt correct - don't use it, don't return it 10:23 |Lupin| gmcharlt: actually at the beginning I thought you meant not _return_ the counter, and then I realised you meant not using it at all, that was the misunderstanding I think. 10:23 gmcharlt for example 10:23 gmcharlt GetAuthorisedValues 10:22 |Lupin| gmcharlt: actually it was even suggested to completely remove this function because there are more general functions to fetch authorised values... that's why I wanted to know how you'd like this to be fixed... 10:21 gmcharlt yep 10:21 gmcharlt will also remove the unecessary test 10:21 |Lupin| gmcharlt: it should have a where category='CCODE' clause 10:21 gmcharlt SELECT * FROM authorised_values WHERE catagory = 'CCODE' ORDER BY authorized_value 10:21 |Lupin| gmcharlt: yeah the query is poorly written 10:20 |Lupin| gmcharlt: ah I got it. yeah if the function doesn't use a counter at all and just pushes onto the array it will work just fine. 10:20 gmcharlt but rewriting the query so that it's 10:20 gmcharlt ah, right 10:19 |Lupin| gmcharlt: yeah I certainly agree. What I'm saying is that there are two things: (1) the function returns an array and its size which is useless and (2) the return array contains an undefined cell because lines 295 and 296 of C4/Koha.pm appear in the wrong order. 10:18 gmcharlt remove the counter outright, and the problem goes away :) 10:16 |Lupin| gmcharlt: look at the code: the counter is incremented _before_ the value is stored, that's why the first position of the list is empty, even once you have removed the useless size... 10:16 gmcharlt but that's fine - getting the size of arrays in Perl is a cheap operation, and there's no need for API calls to return both an array (or arrayref) and a count 10:15 |Lupin| gmcharlt: it's not only that the problem 10:15 gmcharlt it means that users of GetCcodes would have to get the count (if they need) by looking at scalar(@results) 10:15 gmcharlt |Lupin|: remove the first return ($count) and just return the array 10:14 |Lupin| gmcharlt: I'm willing to fix this but I'm wondering how you'd like that to be done 10:13 |Lupin| gmcharlt: it returns an array containing undef at position 0 10:13 |Lupin| gmcharlt: there is a bug inthe GetCcodes function in C4/Koha.pl 10:13 |Lupin| gmcharlt: hi 10:07 gmcharlt hi |Lupin| 10:07 |Lupin| gmcharlt: around ? 10:01 |Lupin| guten morgen kf 10:01 |Lupin| guten morgen k 09:45 kf hi |Lupin| 09:44 |Lupin| hi there 07:50 kf hi Amit 07:48 Amit hi kf ;) 07:40 kf good morning #koha 07:33 Amit hi hdl 07:32 hdl_laptop hi all 07:19 Amit hi nahuel ;) 06:55 magnusenger hi chris 06:55 chris hi magnusenger 06:55 nicomo hi magnusenger 06:54 magnusenger hi everyone - nicomo: i'll send an e-mail your way shortly 06:45 chris hi Ropuch 06:44 Ropuch hi nicomo, chris 06:43 nicomo hello everyone 06:43 nicomo hi chris 06:43 chris hi nicomo 06:35 pianohacker good night 06:22 richard back again 05:58 Ropuch ;> 05:58 Ropuch Morning, everybody 05:56 brendan Night #koha -- have an excellent day, evening, whatever :) 04:19 chris :) 04:17 Amit chris: India No.1 in ICC Ranking 03:41 chris the latest news is i have to work on it more :) but it is looking like november 03:41 ebegin Hey chris, what are the latest news about the KohaCon 2010? 03:36 chris night 03:35 ebegin Good night! 03:35 ebegin hugo, slef is the one to look for here :) 03:35 hugo Goodnight 03:34 chris_n^2 g'night koha 03:34 hugo I'll keep working on this little mac and see what I can do - I've got 6 weeks to get it working 03:34 hugo well, thank you Chris and ebegin for your input 03:33 hugo funny - been using a computer for work since 1989. Some things take a while to get to... :D 03:33 chris ah :) 03:32 hugo hi - I was CGI079 - just installed a real IRC client 03:32 chris hi hugo 03:29 chris ditto 03:29 * ebegin likes Debian 03:25 chris heh, typing fail 03:24 chris 3/ws 38 03:24 CGI079 cool. Thanks. Now here's a though - I'd like to tough this out on OS X - but if I were to take an old box and install linux, is there a feeling that's its better to go with Debian, Ubuntu, or something else? 03:22 ebegin yep... at least on linux... 03:18 CGI079 OK to go with the 2.0.22 version? 03:18 ebegin That may be part of your problem... Maybe the doc was done before 2.0.0.0.1 03:18 CGI079 the file in the instructions I am following installs version 2.0.22 of idzebra - current version is 2.0.41 03:17 CGI079 might be a mis configured fink.info file. 03:17 CGI079 well, on a closer look, I see that the file ebegin was asking about libidzebra-2.0.0.0.1.dylib does not exist. libidzebra-2.0.0.dylib does. But missing the .0.1 03:12 Amit heya ebegin 03:12 ebegin Hey amit! 03:10 CGI079 and I read elsewhere that it was recommended not to use CPAN to update itself - sound familiar? A big deal? 03:09 CGI079 but the CPAN self update failed - due to some recursive dependencies (if that's the right phrase) 03:09 brendan hi amit 03:08 CGI079 and ran into this situation where CPAN kept telling me that it wasn't up to date, an update could be done easily, etc. etc. 03:08 CGI079 on an earlier attempt, I got to the CPAN section... 03:08 CGI079 I have one more question if I may... 03:08 chris np good luck 03:07 CGI079 thank you for listening - it helps to sort it out in my head! 03:06 chris yeah, not sure about that 03:05 CGI079 path 03:05 CGI079 or rather, if all the bits will be added to the parth 03:04 CGI079 It's not clear to me, if I install some components using Fink, and others using Darwin Ports, if the path will "know" where all the bits are... 03:04 CGI079 But perhaps, having failed with Fink 3 times now, that makes sense. 03:03 CGI079 yes, I saw that myself - but I was reluctant to go down the darwinports path, having instructions using Fink - they seem to be two different camps - put things in different places, etc. 03:02 Amit good morning #koha 03:02 Amit hi chris, brendan 03:01 chris i wonder if this is a better path? 03:01 chris http://zebra.darwinports.com/ 03:01 CGI079 yes, it does exist 02:58 CGI079 I did drill down and see how much of tha path existed - let me check again 02:58 chris cool 02:58 CGI079 when I finally get this working I will be happy to add to that 02:58 CGI079 yes, it is :) 02:58 chris but fixing it would be great 02:58 chris thats way old and out of date 02:57 chris http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=osx&s[]=osx 02:57 ebegin /sw/src/fink.build/root-idzebra-2.0.41-1/sw/lib/libidzebra-2.0.0.0.1.dylib 02:57 ebegin does this file exists? 02:57 chris that would be great 02:57 CGI079 I'd love to get it to work and then rewrite those instructions I have, rewritten so that someone like me could follow them... 02:55 CGI079 but Mac OS X does't have a /usr/local/bin directory, and while I could of course create it, I felt that by then I'd be so far off the instructions I was following that it would be better to figure out why the Fink install was failing instead - since I only sorta kinda know what I'm doing. 02:53 CGI079 so I thought I'd build idzebra myself 02:53 CGI079 The /sw directory is because I'm using Fink 02:52 CGI079 I do - but I am guessing that it's specific to my install. The idzebra install fails with "mv: rename /sw/src/fink.build/root-idzebra-2.0.41-1/sw/lib/libidzebra-2.0.0.0.1.dylib to /sw/src/fink.build/root-idzebra-shlibs-2.0.41-1/sw/lib/libidzebra-2.0.0.0.1.dylib: No such file or directory" 02:51 ebegin Do you have any error message? 02:50 CGI079 :D 02:50 CGI079 And I didn't even know what floss stood for until I looked it up just now 02:49 chris yep 02:49 chris slef is who wrote that blog post, but it is about 3am for him 02:49 ebegin this doc was written by mj, right? 02:49 munin` chris: slef was last seen in #koha 1 day, 9 hours, 34 minutes, and 35 seconds ago: <slef> oic - should have guessed that 02:49 chris @seen slef 02:49 chris *nod* most of us use floss 02:48 CGI079 yes - they seem sort of rare in the Koha world so far. 02:48 * chris isnt a mac user sorry :( 02:48 CGI079 I am having a tough time with the idzebra install - using Fink... I wonder if anyone might be able to help? 02:47 CGI079 This is the third time I've tried this - trying to go slowly and get it right. A challenge. 02:46 CGI079 (it's been a long night!) 02:46 CGI079 :) 02:46 CGI079 sorry - that should be following instructions here: http://www.news.software.coop/how-to-install-koha-300-on-macos-x-105/13/ 02:46 ebegin Those are nice instructions ;) 02:45 CGI079 Hello - I'm installing 3.00.03 on Mac OS X 10.5.8. I'm following the instructions here: http://koha.org/cgi-bin/irc.cgi 02:14 chris i havent seen that happen before 02:13 chris hmmm 02:13 ebegin sometime, I even have 3 instances 02:12 chris cool :) 02:12 * ebegin just spent 2 weeks in California and looooooved it! 02:12 chris weird 02:12 ebegin nop 02:12 chris you already have one running? 02:12 ebegin Chris: Canada is ok I guess :) 02:11 ebegin Does anyone know why I could have 2 instances of zebrasrv start when I'm calling /usr/share/koha/bin/koha-zebra-ctl.sh start? 02:11 chris good thanks, hows canada? 02:09 ebegin Hey! how are you all? 02:08 chris hiya ebegin 02:02 chris_n^2 lol :-) 02:01 brendan ah - you get the idea :) 02:01 brendan night chris_n62 02:01 chris_n^2 goodnight brendan 02:00 chris heh, night 02:00 brendan good evening chrises 01:59 brendan chris -- chris_n^2 01:40 * chris_n^2 hides under his desk 01:39 chris_n^2 http://www.graphicsmagick.org/perl.html#id13 01:39 chris_n^2 boy did I miss the call on G::M 01:32 chris wb brendan 01:17 chris heh 01:15 * chris_n^2 finds it interesting that "Cuisine" is at the top of the magazine list :-) 01:13 chris cool 01:12 chris_n^2 I did post to their list in case there is something I've missed 01:12 chris_n^2 hard to believe that such a nice package would lack that ability 01:12 chris_n^2 when reading from the fh that is 01:11 chris dang 01:11 chris_n^2 but opening a string as a file handle causes G::M to segfault 01:11 chris_n^2 it does read from file handles 01:11 chris ahhh 01:11 chris_n^2 chris: it appears that G::M cannot be coerced to read from strings rather than from files 01:09 chris for http://www.mags4gifts.co.nz/ 01:08 chris yup 01:06 chris_n^2 chris: did you say someone there was using G::M? 00:02 pianohacker something must be wrong with the data collection, though 00:00 pianohacker holy cow
