22:21 drojf i guess that explains -o
22:21 huginn gmcharlt: False
22:21 gmcharlt @config plugins.Unix.fortune.offensive
22:18 wizzyrea he's getting pretty feisty
22:18 gmcharlt wizzyrea: alternatively, you could find 99 more four-year-olds, then seen how druthb does ;)
22:18 druthb He'd kick my butt.
22:17 druthb I'd lose to your four-year-old, wizzy.
22:17 wizzyrea ooo!
22:17 huginn drojf: You will be given a post of trust and responsibility.
22:17 drojf @fortune
22:17 * wizzyrea hides her four year old
22:17 huginn druthb: You will be a winner today. Pick a fight with a four-year-old.
22:17 huginn wizzyrea: Q: Why do firemen wear red suspenders? A: To conform with departmental regulations concerning uniform dress.
22:17 druthb @fortune
22:17 wizzyrea @fortune
22:17 druthb :P
22:17 wizzyrea that's a joke not a fortune.
22:17 wizzyrea hrmph.
22:17 huginn wizzyrea: Q: How many Martians does it take to screw in a light bulb? A: One and a half.
22:17 wizzyrea @fortune
22:17 wizzyrea that's a good one
22:17 huginn druthb: You definitely intend to start living sometime soon.
22:17 druthb @fortune
22:17 wizzyrea :)
22:16 huginn eythian: Living your life is a task so difficult, it has never been attempted before.
22:16 eythian @fortune
22:15 * wizzyrea needs to load fortunes
22:15 eythian I don't think the plugin understands it
22:14 eythian try it on the command line
22:14 wizzyrea what's -o?
22:14 huginn eythian: Don't let your mind wander -- it's too little to be let out alone.
22:14 eythian @fortune -o
22:13 druthb lol
22:13 huginn druthb: Q: Why does Washington have the most lawyers per capita and New Jersey the most toxic waste dumps? A: God gave New Jersey first choice.
22:13 druthb @fortune
22:13 druthb heh
22:13 huginn trea: Q: What do you say to a New Yorker with a job? A: Big Mac, fries and a Coke, please!
22:13 trea @fortune
22:12 wizzyrea scurry
22:12 eythian hmm, not so sure there
22:12 eythian -- Eric Allman, "Sendmail Installation Guide"
22:12 eythian Sendmail may be safely run set-user-id to root.
22:12 eythian $ fortune
22:12 huginn wizzyrea: No violence, gentlemen -- no violence, I beg of you! Consider the furniture! -- Sherlock Holmes
22:12 wizzyrea @fortune
22:12 wizzyrea hehehe
22:11 huginn eythian: Stay the curse.
22:11 wizzyrea thanks gmcharlt :)
22:11 eythian @fortune
22:11 wizzyrea YESSS
22:11 druthb puh.
22:11 huginn druthb: Executive ability is prominent in your make-up.
22:11 druthb @fortune
22:11 huginn gmcharlt: Q: What do they call the alphabet in Arkansas? A: The impossible dream.
22:11 gmcharlt @fortune
22:09 huginn gmcharlt: Error: I couldn't find the fortune command on this system. If it is installed on this system, reconfigure the supybot.plugins.Unix.fortune.command configuration variable appropriately.
22:09 gmcharlt @fortune
22:08 eythian it's presumably just a call to the unix 'fortune' command anyway
22:07 wizzyrea but it's kind of not a necessity :P
22:07 wizzyrea our bot doesn't have fortune :)
22:07 * gmcharlt perks up
22:06 wizzyrea or both!
22:06 wizzyrea or transcribe them all and have gmcharlt load them into the supybot
22:06 wizzyrea the fortune book is a good one - I should tear them all out and put them in a fishbowl
22:03 wahanui rangi: short leg on process table
22:03 rangi excuse?
22:03 wizzyrea :D
22:03 jcamins So true.
22:03 jcamins lol
22:03 drojf lol
22:02 wizzyrea "your attention to detail is both a blessing and potentially kind of creepy"
22:02 eythian oh well
22:02 huginn eythian: Error: I couldn't find the fortune command on this system. If it is installed on this system, reconfigure the supybot.plugins.Unix.fortune.command configuration variable appropriately.
22:02 eythian @fortune
22:02 wizzyrea and the one I first saw was
22:02 wizzyrea (beacuse I was going to give jcamins one)
22:02 wizzyrea haha I just opened up my book of fortunes
22:01 jcamins And find my shoes...
22:01 * cait sends jcamins cherry cake
22:01 rangi nice!
22:01 jcamins I have to revise the second-to-last patch and squash it into the previous patch, and give the combined patch a useful commit message.
22:01 * wizzyrea is so proud of jcamins :)
22:01 cait jcamins: looks like the project is progressing nicely :)
22:01 wizzyrea seems almost certain - the guy really had no idea about what he was actually doing!
22:01 jcamins http://git.cpbibliography.com/?p=koha.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/search_rewrite_submit
22:00 drojf i believe they did :)
22:00 drojf ah yeah i forgot about that option
22:00 rangi maybe they answered off list?
22:00 rangi not as yet drojf
21:59 eythian yeah, getting perl modules in to debian is reasonably straightforward.
21:59 drojf rangi: making the librarians take over support on the mailing list did not really work, did it?
21:59 jcamins But I have to leave now.
21:59 jcamins Like, I'm just a couple of commit messages and a small revision away.
21:58 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=9239 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, jcamins, NEW , Koha should share Evergreen's QueryParser module for parsing queries
21:58 jcamins Argh! So close to having patches to submit for bug 9239!
21:54 jcamins Because, you know, I have so much free time...
21:54 jcamins Their page says it requires some adoption.
21:53 rangi that would be handy!
21:53 jcamins Ooh, I could help get libchi-perl into Debian.
21:51 drojf right around the corner
21:51 drojf #debian-perl
21:51 * eythian is on the phone
21:50 rangi http://wiki.debian.org/Teams/DebianPerlGroup#How_to_get_involved
21:50 rangi http://wiki.debian.org/Teams/DebianPerlGroup
21:50 rangi you don't need to be a DD
21:50 rangi the debian perl team are cool
21:49 rangi you can
21:49 drojf i think getting your stuff in debian is a slow and complicated process. probably eythian knows more about it
21:49 jcamins I'm not a Debian developer.
21:49 jcamins drojf: can I do that?
21:49 jcamins (which it is)
21:49 drojf i would want you to provide debian with a copy :P
21:49 jcamins (assuming this CPAN module was a dependency shared by Koha and Evergreen)
21:48 jcamins eythian: if I am the maintainer of a CPAN module that I am distributing as a .deb (in addition to as source), would the correct way to handle it be to have a separate apt repo, or would you want me to provide you with a copy of the .debs?
21:47 jcamins Oh, I have a question for eythian.
21:45 drojf who needs wages when you have the joy of library work?
21:44 drojf imagine all those subversive books that libraries don't buy now
21:44 jcamins [off] More money for organizations like ALA that just encourage wage depression, less for people who get wages?
21:44 drojf it is
21:44 drojf yes
21:44 jcamins drojf: isn't that the point?
21:44 drojf but anyway, $$$
21:44 drojf also, money will be lost somewhere where it could have been used for better stuff
21:43 drojf money will be made
21:43 cait maybe I am missing the point
21:43 cait and then nothing will be won
21:43 cait I mean, ok, the big ones will, but all the small ones will not care and stick with the old standard
21:42 cait really, who does think this is a good idea for a standard libraries are supposed to use?
21:42 rangi drojf: i can sell you one
21:42 wizzyrea there's a field for that.
21:42 wizzyrea ah comedy
21:42 drojf if i only had some crazily expensive toolkit to tell me how to use it
21:42 cait lol
21:42 rangi 339 - DOES THIS SUCK $a YES
21:42 drojf heh
21:42 rangi there's a field for not being into RDA too
21:41 drojf i'm not
21:39 cait but germany is into rda too :(
21:39 cait wizzyrea: I agree :(
21:39 cait lol
21:39 drojf that explains everything
21:39 drojf Radioactive dentin abrasion (RDA) is a method of measuring of the erosive effect of abrasives in toothpaste on tooth dentin.
21:38 wizzyrea "don't pay for this ridiculous toolkit... buy us boooooooks"
21:38 rangi theres a field for that
21:38 wizzyrea just sayin.
21:38 wizzyrea tiny library children are weeping
21:37 wizzyrea seriously that makes kids cry.
21:37 rangi it's all RDA all the time
21:37 cait doom.
21:37 cait and another...
21:36 tweetbot` [off] twitter: @kohails: "#kohails RDA Support in Koha http://t.co/HofrBVY8"
21:33 drojf lol. a standard you gotta love
21:33 rangi "why do you charge that much?" "because we can"
21:33 drojf We are certain you will find that it is the most effective way to interact with the new standard.
21:32 rangi a way to suck money from the public sector
21:32 rangi it's a rort
21:32 cait I have seen it - no gold
21:31 drojf goodness, what's with the license fees for the toolkit? is it made of gold?
21:30 rangi apparently people thought it was all hard and complicated and stuff :)
21:28 cait that was fast
21:28 trea hehe

21:27 eythian it'll be the last repeating date until 2101
21:27 wizzyrea if we're going to be arbitrary about it.
21:27 wizzyrea i mean 12 12 12 is much scarier than 211212
21:27 wizzyrea yea, idk why people aren't excited about TODAY and not the 21st
21:26 jcamins lol
21:26 wizzyrea OMG
21:26 cait so it is
21:26 rangi IVE DOOMED US ALL!!!!
21:25 rangi so i posted about RDA on 12/12/12
21:25 wizzyrea :)
21:24 drojf lol
21:23 jcamins It's one of those things that I thought about and decided I didn't really care, and I'd let someone else fix. :P
21:23 jcamins It's submitting a higher level form.
21:22 wizzyrea I will if I can figure it out.
21:22 jcamins Chrome propagates events.
21:22 jcamins Oh, no, I know why it does that.
21:22 wizzyrea hmm that would take some thinking
21:22 jcamins Which still doesn't work under Chrome.
21:22 jcamins Yes.
21:22 huginn 04Bug 8557: normal, P3, ---, christophe.croullebois, Pushed to Stable , in orderreceive.tt and serials-edit.tt the use of a barcode scan send the form unexpectedly
21:22 wizzyrea you were thinking of http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8557
21:21 jcamins Darn... wanna fix it for Chrome too, please? :P
21:21 wizzyrea really, i swear, it's a different place
21:21 wizzyrea no
21:20 jcamins wizzyrea: are you on Chrome?
21:20 drojf i had angry birds hd on my tablet. at one point i lost the saved game and finally could stop to play it
21:20 wizzyrea I checked those bugs
21:20 wizzyrea (because I just fixed it in master ;)
21:20 wizzyrea jcamins: it was not fixed on that page
21:19 drojf lol
21:19 * cait has played angry birds star wars
21:19 cait with the force...
21:19 drojf ?
21:18 drojf cait: are you trying to pull my wifi cableß
21:17 drojf [off] computer-related person from university obviously gave out her whole address book to skillpages. and i am the winner of invites to two different of my email addresses. yay, professionals. not. m(
21:17 * cait takes it away from drojf
21:17 cait poor network
21:13 * drojf slaps his network

20:17 cait cool!
20:17 rangi from alaska this time
20:17 rangi yay, another library card
20:06 rangi ah ha thanks
20:06 jcamins And non-repeatable.
20:05 jcamins Repeatable.
20:05 rangi NR not required?
20:05 rangi jcamins: http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd336.html the R there means required?
20:04 jcamins Then... I don't know.
20:04 jcamins Oh.
20:03 oleonard I don't think so, because it's another column that is wrapped in [% UNLESS ( item_level_itypes ) %]
20:02 jcamins *think
20:02 jcamins oleonard: when you have bib-level item types, I thin.
20:02 oleonard What kind of authorized value might display an image in OPAC search results?
20:02 oleonard Under what circumstances does the OPAC show "SEARCH_RESULT.AuthorisedValueImages"
20:01 jcamins :P
20:01 jcamins paul_p: there's a difference?
20:00 paul_p jcamins is switching from RM to BD -Benevolent Dictator- ;-)
20:00 tcohen bye paul_p
20:00 tcohen heh
20:00 paul_p OK, have a good day kiwis & aussies, have a good afternoon americans, have a good night europeans !
20:00 jcamins tcohen: well, yes, but there are some political issues that can best be solved by the RM (me) saying "this is the rule. Follow it, or I won't push your patches."
19:59 tcohen i see politics everywhere
19:59 jcamins Yes we will.
19:59 paul_p ok, let's do it like this, we will see how things goes.
19:59 jcamins I don't believe in technical solutions for political problems or vice versa.
19:58 tcohen the second time a dev tells us we forgot... we wont again
19:58 jcamins tcohen: at least you will after I start rejecting things 'cause it's not filled in. ;)
19:58 tcohen we will all fill that field
19:58 paul_p jcamins right, it requires javascript
19:58 paul_p jcamins ah, ok, it's a problem for patches submitted before I set this information. In this case, maybe the best option is to bulkmodify all those bugs with patches with a default complexity value ?
19:57 jcamins Also, apparently it requires javascript in order to show up at all.
19:57 jcamins Right.
19:57 rangi or even add themselves as cc
19:57 jcamins "Oh, sorry, you can't save your comment unless you set patch complexity!"
19:57 jcamins They want to ask a question about a patch someone submitted?
19:57 wahanui jcamins is very, very irascible.
19:57 paul_p jcamins ???
19:57 jcamins Yes they do.
19:56 paul_p jcamins but non developpers don't submit patches, so they don't have to fill this field !
19:56 jcamins rangi: thanks.
19:56 rangi jcamins: the build got further this time, i think just permission errors int he jenkins dir, fixed now
19:56 jcamins It is, but I would prefer to spend more time saying "please provide this information" and less time manually attaching patches.
19:56 jcamins But I can't use git-bz to handle my workflow with the field set to mandatory, and we have non-developers worrying that they're doing things wrong.
19:56 paul_p with this field being non mandatory, i'm pretty sure it will be ignored & not set... & I think it's a damn usefull information !
19:55 jcamins It's easy for me to tell people "you must set patch complexity or we will assume it's a very complex patch and save it for when we have lots of time free."
19:55 jcamins paul_p: because with patch complexity mandatory, asking questions and submitting patches becomes a burden.
19:54 * paul_p QAed 13 patches today, that will be enough for today ! (I'm tired, need some sleep, 10PM in greece)
19:54 cait because various people have reported problems with it
19:53 paul_p ok, so jcamins why did you asked that ? ;-)
19:53 rangi because jcamins asked me to
19:53 paul_p rangi (& jcamins maybe) = "ok patch complexity is now optional and always visible" => why did you change that ?
19:53 jenkins_koha Starting build #974 for job Koha_master (previous build: STILL FAILING -- last SUCCESS #971 3 days 4 hr ago)

19:49 jcamins I was able to build and install on my server.
19:49 jcamins rangi: it's failing prior to starting the build, and I can't see why.
19:48 rangi jcamins: what was the jenkins thing?
19:48 rangi jcamins: ok patch complexity is now optional and always visible
19:47 cait wb
19:45 rangi back
19:22 oleonard jcamins: Not without the right doctype
19:21 jcamins oleonard: it was being extensible? :P
19:21 oleonard " A table row was 4 columns wide, which is less than the column count established by the first row (5)" Why didn't the XHTML validator give errors like that?
19:19 oleonard Lots of fun new errors from the validator after switching the doctype
19:02 rangi Ok my stop bb after coffee
19:02 jcamins That is correct.
19:02 jcamins Yes.
19:02 jcamins Unit tests are welcomed for changes to existing routines, but not required... yet. ;)
19:02 paul_p I see a patch that adds a sub in C4/Circulation.pm and has no unit test => failed QA, right ?
19:02 jcamins paul_p: unit tests are required for all new routines in C4:: and Koha::.
19:01 paul_p jcamins = could you remind me what's your rule about unit tests for 3.12 ?
19:01 jcamins paul_p: yes I am.

18:50 rangi He is always asking for news
18:49 rangi You should definitely email Daniel (the newsletter editor) about that
18:49 jcamins manderson++
18:49 Manderson1 still have more work to do on it, but it's a start
18:49 rangi Yay :)
18:49 Manderson1 http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_Redhat_Enterprise_6
18:45 rangi I'm annoying like that
18:45 rangi I'll do it today and post it on the wiki
18:45 rangi Hehe yeah
18:44 jcamins (valid HTML? Why would we want to support that?)
18:44 jcamins They've misinterpreted "why would we want to waste our time on a standard that no one can afford to use?" as meaning the same thing it does when an average proprietary vendor says that.
18:43 rangi So I want to be all look its done, your move
18:43 rangi I've heard natlib say it would be hard for koha to do it
18:43 jcamins (he says through tears)
18:42 jcamins Yeah, it's very readily doable.
18:42 rangi It's mostly to prove a point
18:42 rangi I figure I could do one pretty fast
18:42 jcamins lol
18:42 * druthb wants to see if he'll cry.
18:41 druthb I asked jcamins.
18:41 wahanui druthb: what?
18:41 druthb I didn't ask you, wahanui.
18:41 jcamins That's the one.
18:41 wahanui somebody said RDA was a room in a twisty maze of standards
18:41 druthb jcamins: RDA?
18:41 jcamins I mostly just cry when asked about RDA. :P
18:41 * jcamins doesn't, sorry.
18:41 rangi Oh hey does anybody have a framework with the rda fields in it?
18:39 rangi Hehe
18:37 jcamins Not to mention, how?
18:37 jcamins Why would I do something like that?
18:36 jcamins Did I really survive with authority search results this dreadful for three years?
18:36 jcamins It takes very little time to get used to decent relevance ranking.
18:35 jcamins Wow.
18:35 rangi Heh
18:33 jcamins I hope you appreciated our efforts to give you enough reading material for the entire bus ride. :)
18:33 jcamins Thanks.
18:33 rangi I'll look at bugzilla when I get to my desk
18:31 wahanui Morning is a state of mind. or whenever the cat wants breakfast.
18:31 rangi Morning
18:28 tcohen internet got too slow, leaving home then
18:20 cait cool:)
18:20 tcohen i'll check what is wrong
18:20 cait ok
18:20 tcohen cait, i've read your report
18:16 tcohen i started the fix for the docs when speaking to that H guy about his broken dependecies after dpkg
18:15 cait sorry typing while eating dinner - slow :)
18:15 cait i copied the output...
18:15 tcohen i should have read your report :-D
18:15 cait nope
18:15 tcohen didn't it say it was the wrong verison?
18:14 cait hm it listed the one i removed for testing
18:14 tcohen a sane way to install dependencies instead of plain dpkg --set-selections
18:14 tcohen second, we intended to make use of an unused script for providing the users
18:13 tcohen first, ubuntu.*packages files might be outdated
18:13 tcohen there are two problems
18:12 cait was wondering what went wrong there
18:12 tcohen that issues a oneliner for installing without the dpkg --set-selections mess
18:12 cait ah cool :)
18:12 tcohen INSTALL.ubuntu.12.04
18:12 tcohen i'm about to post a patch for the docs
18:12 cait the one I was looking at yesterday
18:12 tcohen oh, hte one that failed qa
18:12 cait heh :)
18:12 tcohen :-D
18:11 wahanui well, which one is 3.6.x?
18:11 tcohen which one?
18:11 cait working on the bug?
18:11 cait hi tcohen
18:09 tcohen provided we tell the user how to install them separately on the docs?
18:09 tcohen question, should apache2 and mysql-server be listed in install_misc/ubuntu.12.04.packages?
17:59 oleonard Too bad it complains about <link rel=â€unapi-serverâ€>
17:58 magnuse yay for html5
17:45 * drojf heads home
17:34 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=9265 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, ASSIGNED , Switch to HTML5 doctype in OPAC and staff client
17:34 oleonard Bug 9265
17:30 cait :)
17:28 drojf hi cait
17:27 drojf alright. i had a look at this sometime in the past but never really worked with it
17:26 jcamins Mischief!
17:26 cait what are you 2 up to? :)
17:25 * cait waves
17:24 jcamins biblio-zebra-indexdefs.xsl is automatically regenerated from biblio-koha-indexdefs.
17:24 jcamins biblio-koha-indexdefs.xml and biblio-zebra-indexdefs.xsl.
17:24 drojf that looks way to easy
17:23 drojf do i just have to change biblio-zebra-indexdefs.xsl?
17:22 mtompset Have a good day (24 hour period) everyone.
17:19 jcamins lol
17:18 drojf interesting choice of filenames. let's call the iso2709-file something with marc.xml and the marcxml-file something else :P
17:18 drojf iso2709.recordtype: dom-config-marc.xml
17:18 drojf marcxml.recordtype: dom-config.xml
17:12 jcamins It's actually really easy.
17:12 jcamins True.
17:11 drojf and it would not hurt to know how it works with dom anyway. i figured it out with grs-1, it cannot be worse
17:10 drojf because we had customized it a little in an older version and want to have that once we go live, but we have a new machine and 3.8 with DOM installed
17:09 jcamins What are you trying to do?
17:09 jcamins drojf: it's never a good time for that.
17:08 drojf is 6pm a good time for looking at grs-1 to dom index conversion? i don't feel much like it.
17:06 jcamins lol
17:06 drojf i would like to have something like that replace "last christmas"
17:06 druthb I'm thinking of the Python "Election Night Special" sketch, and candidate "Tarquin Fintimlimbimlimbimwhimbimlin Bus Stop Ftang Ftang Olay Biscuit Barrel".
17:01 jcamins There's a Shabbat song with the lyrics "bim bam" repeated over and over... I am imagining someone singing "fim bip, fim bam bip..."
17:00 druthb lulz
16:58 jcamins You're welcome.
16:58 pastebot "jcamins" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "I am easily amused..." (16 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/310
16:57 jcamins Exactly.
16:57 mtompset He's a coding, cataloging expert, not a masochistic rewrite every search engine writer. ;)
16:56 drojf \o/
16:53 jcamins It's one problem, and one which won't exist after the search rewrite.
16:53 jcamins No thanks.
16:52 drojf do a zebra rewrite then, too :P
16:49 jcamins That's one of the few Zebra-related problems that isn't our fault.
16:49 drojf if only somebody would come and do a search rewrite
16:49 drojf heh
16:48 jcamins Buggy CCL2RPN FTW!
16:48 drojf ah-oh
16:48 jcamins Except curly brackets don't work when ICU is disabled.
16:48 jcamins That's what we did for a while.
16:48 drojf assuming it does that because $something does not work otherwise, wouldn't it have been less confusing to use curly brackets in general instead of syspref-ing this?
16:47 * jcamins doesn't either. :P
16:46 drojf heh. i'm slightly underwhelmed. don't know what i expected though
16:46 jcamins drojf: yes.
16:45 drojf is the only thing that UseICU == 1 does change quotes in XSLT to curly brackets?
16:38 drojf Manderson1++
16:36 Manderson1 Ok...I'll do that.
16:36 jcamins You can just add it to the wiki.
16:35 Manderson1 or shall I just add it to the wiki?
16:34 Manderson1 got a place you'd like me to paste it?
16:34 Manderson1 k, hang on
16:33 oleonard that sounds quite relevant
16:33 Manderson1 oleonard: I installed 3.8 (I think) last month
16:33 Manderson1 oleonard: I know - their version seems dated.
16:33 oleonard Manderson1: Is it for a current version?
16:33 drojf Manderson1: i believe it is, give us all you got
16:32 oleonard Manderson1: You can usually tell by how old it is
16:32 Manderson1 Do you want it for the wiki?
16:32 Manderson1 I have some information on how to install Koha on Red-hat...is it still relevant?
16:32 drojf Manderson1: outside of it
16:32 jcamins Manderson1: they are not popular.
16:32 Manderson1 Thanks for the info on Community vs Liblime. I am just curious of how they stand as a company in the eyes of the open source community.
16:30 drojf it's even pronounced vaguely german. cool
16:30 drojf great example at urbandictionary.com ;)
16:29 jcamins drojf: interesting example you found there.
16:29 * jcamins does a doubletake.
16:28 mtompset http://imgfave.com/view/1698611 ("English doesn't borrow from other languages. English follows other languages down dark alleys, knocks them over the head, and goes through their pockets for loose grammar."
16:27 drojf verboten (Adj) Excluded from use or mention. Derived from the German word meaning forbidden. "I had no problem getting to second base with her, but the chastity belt told me going any further would be strictly verboten."
16:26 chris_n hehe
16:26 jcamins lol
16:26 mtompset drojf: English takes other languages down a dark back alley and assaults them for language.
16:26 drojf one of the most german words :D
16:25 drojf cool
16:25 jcamins drojf: yes.
16:25 drojf "PERL10: Verboten subroutine parameters" <-- 'verboten' made it into the english language?
16:25 jcamins I'm not seeing how producing ugly code will help other people read documentation.
16:24 mtompset Yes, but if someone adds code elsewhere, they may not pass a parameter that they could, because they were looking at the smaller call version.
16:23 jcamins mtompset: but you have no idea what they are without looking at the POD.
16:22 mtompset but then you know how many parameters are there.
16:17 jcamins myroutine($variable, undef, undef) is ugly.
16:16 mtompset Out of curiousity, why PERL8? Is that for perl critic reasons?
16:12 mtompset Okay, I'm back.
16:10 mtompset_AFK OH! Now I get it too. Yes, I think libsysguy meant me. You know the stats I was asking about are useful to guessing how big a Koha server should be. :P
16:03 kf georgia++
16:01 rambutan I think I should close my eyes.
16:01 libsysguy haha @PERL17
16:00 libsysguy soab, thats what I get for reading too many chat windows lol
16:00 * jcamins adds PERL17.
16:00 tcohen oh, i get it, it was mtompset thou
15:59 libsysguy it was a bad joke
15:59 libsysguy ohh you were asking about the size of my collection
15:59 tcohen "<libsysguy> geez tcohen its only the first date"
15:59 libsysguy tcohen what do you mean?
15:57 libsysguy I had my OO hat on
15:57 libsysguy :p
15:57 libsysguy jcamins yes thats exactly what I meant
15:51 tcohen libsysguy, do u think i went too fast with druthb?
15:51 paul_p leaving Elidoc offices, back online in less than one hour !
15:50 jcamins libsysguy: you mean make it clear that for OO code (which the example isn't) $self and $args are different?
15:49 libsysguy you should separate $self from $args
15:48 libsysguy I only have one addition to perl16
15:46 mtompset_AFK There in is our difference. :P -- And I'm not a preacher type. Just a cog in a larger translation ministry. :)
15:45 drojf mtompset_AFK: i only spread the word of koha, not a god :P
15:45 oleonard I work for a charitable organization wherein I am the beneficiary, but no one seems to agree that this counts
15:45 jcamins Could someone take a look at rules PERL14-PERL16, and let me know if they make sense? http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Coding_Guidelines#PERL14:_Exports
15:44 mtompset_AFK Yes, but do you work for a charitable organization? :P
15:44 oleonard Nice work if you can get it
15:44 drojf i could use 32 people at $25/month too
15:43 mtompset Well, errands to run. :)
15:41 mtompset Turns out our financial shortfall isn't as big as I was worried it would be, so just need to find 32 people at $25/month, and I'm back in the Koha game. :)
15:40 tcohen hahah
15:40 mtompset I missed you too, tcohen. ;)
15:40 tcohen mtompset is back!
15:37 drojf as are the conceptions of "free" and "open"
15:35 kf Manderson1: and the Koha we develop and their software are very different
15:35 khall cool
15:34 jcamins Right now I'm revising coding guidelines so there won't be confusion.
15:34 oleonard Manderson1: We do our best to ignore Liblime because they don't want to participate in our project. Why do you ask?
15:34 kf Manderson1: I think you will have to explain why you are asking maybe. I thas been resolved as in 'separated'
15:34 jcamins khall: thanks. I'll take a look shortly.
15:34 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=7067 new feature, P5 - low, ---, kyle.m.hall, Signed Off , allow patron self registration via the opac
15:34 khall jcamins, new qa followup submitted for bug 7067
15:33 drojf mtompset: i think using one db for several koha instances does exist when people want to have different OPACs layouts but share the data
15:33 oleonard Ha!
15:33 Manderson1 There was some friction between liblime and the koha community. Has that been resolved?
15:30 julian_m oleonard, ok, let me know if you find something interesting ;)
15:29 kf slef: I think I am going to leave this to wiser people (who know more about system administrationm)
15:29 mtompset Oh, okay. Now I get what you mean.
15:29 slef kf: there is another way to implement it, the equivalent of generalising rbuild_zebra = a job that runs every 5 minutes, looks to see what tasks it should do. That has its own benefits and drawbacks, so it's hard to say what's best.
15:29 oleonard julian_m: I'm just beginning to learn about it
15:29 druthb paul_p: It's working for me, now. Don't know what was triggering that hung query.
15:29 slef mtompset: no, they'd need to install multiple koha's and run as the same system user (rather than koha-lib1, koha-lib2... like the packages do).
15:28 mtompset Ewww... slef, are you saying people install multiple koha's, but use the same DB?
15:28 oleonard julian_m: The idea is to load one js file (require.js) and then pass a configuration file to require.js telling it what other dependencies you need.
15:28 julian_m oleonard, so the browser load only js files it needs ?
15:27 oleonard julian_m: I'm just learning about it, but I hear great things about it
15:27 slef kf: so no problem.
15:27 slef kf: if you use the packages, koha virtualhosts have their own users.
15:27 oleonard julian_m: It's a way to asynchronously load javascript dependencies
15:27 slef kf: for the security vulnerabilities to occur, you would need to run all virtualhosts as the same user (bad) and install multiple koha virtualhosts without realising they could interact (bad)
15:27 julian_m oleonard, never heard about it... what is it ?
15:26 tweetbot` [off] twitter: @kohails: "#kohails Behind the scenes in Technical Services: Koha serials tweaks we like http://t.co/7UClh4kR"
15:26 kf slef: I think maybe we should ask semarie to take a look for security
15:26 druthb could be. Hard to believe the darn thing is *that* fragile, though, that user error like that could trash the whole works.
15:26 oleonard julian_m: Have you ever worked with require.js? (http://requirejs.org/)
15:26 slef no, the packages avoid it completely
15:26 kf because it's super easy
15:26 paul_p druthb = at least that made poedit-windows core dump...
15:26 kf more and more every day
15:26 kf witht he packages?
15:25 slef kf: how many install multiple Kohas?
15:25 kf so if a feature is on by default that can cause a flaw - I am not feeling comfortable with that
15:25 paul_p druthb = suggestion: there are some invalid translation (ie 4 %s in english, only 3 %s in greek). Maybe pootle is confused by this ?
15:25 slef kf: true, I only tried to resolve the security concerns.
15:25 mtompset user-isolating?
15:25 kf slef: not all libraries installing koha have a sysadmin
15:25 julian_m oleonard, yes ?
15:25 slef kf: the security concerns only existed if you installed multiple Koha sites without user-isolating them = your sysadmin cut corners.
15:24 druthb paul_p: Something is apparently amiss--trying to figure out what. But when you do that, mysql just *hangs* on a query there, and sends the system into swapping spasms.
15:24 kf slef: secuirty reasons set aside
15:24 oleonard julian_m around?
15:24 kf slef: I think the problem Vitor notedhas not been addressed? looking from the outside this looks like a failed qa for me for this
15:23 drojf o/\o
15:23 * mtompset high fives drojf.
15:22 drojf the poor wall :P
15:22 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8840 normal, P5 - low, ---, tomascohen, Failed QA , ubuntu-pkg-check.sh fix and extend functionality
15:22 mtompset bug 8840
15:22 drojf druthb: don't do that
15:22 kf mtompset: ?
15:22 * druthb beats her head against the wall, repeatedly.
15:22 mtompset I figured I should come here to see if kf was having a late night. :)
15:21 mtompset So, this is only the second time I've been on IRC since in Canada.
15:21 paul_p druthb strange, I can reach the http://translate.koha-community.org/el/310/, but not the http://translate.koha-community.org/el/310/el-GR-i-opac-t-prog-v-3006000.po/translate/
15:21 mtompset So, it's been jet lag and a bit of running around for Christmas and red-tape.
15:21 kf slef: so are the security concerns no longer existing?
15:21 oleonard I hope the transition went well mtompset
15:21 mtompset Well, in November my family and I relocated back to Canada.
15:20 drojf ?
15:20 drojf mtompset: true. not much koha time for youß

15:20 slef Changes submitted for bug 1993
15:20 mtompset Greeting, drojf. Long time no chat. :)
15:20 drojf hi mtompset
15:19 druthb :P
15:19 slef (= I'm OK with it)
15:19 mtompset Ah... Pootle... right, Queen of Translations. :)
15:18 libsysguy :p
15:18 libsysguy geez tcohen its only the first date
15:18 slef ok, after considering the security concerns, with a signed-off patch, should I set status to Signed Off or Pushed for QA?
15:18 druthb The server it's on now has 2 GB. tcohen's box has 4 GB. It takes a pretty grunty server to run. mtompset: we're talking about the Pootle server, not a Koha box.
15:18 mtompset I'd prefer to know how big are your circulation numbers and catalog. :)
15:17 libsysguy how much mem do you need?
15:17 druthb Hi, mtompset. :)
15:17 mtompset Greetings, druthb.
15:17 druthb Fortunately, the system tcohen built for us has more memory, paul_p. It should be back up now.
15:16 mtompset Greetings, #koha.
15:14 druthb yeah, it's memory-bound. gonna have to reboot things. give me a minute or two here.
15:13 druthb checking
15:13 paul_p druthb = sorry to bug you, but it's down again...or at least very very very slow...
15:11 jcamins Sorry, just kidding. One more thing: in the test you should create the patron records that you're modifying. I don't have a patron named "Kyle Hall."
15:10 jcamins And, finally, you're still passing hashes rather than hashrefs for new(), DelModifications(), and GetModifications().
15:09 jcamins I also had a comment on the new() routine: the three lines starting with "my $self =" are unnecessary. By blessing $args directly, you eliminate the need to copy member variables.
15:08 khall no problem!
15:08 jcamins Thanks.
15:07 khall cool. I'll get hose fixed up
15:07 jcamins Yeah, that's unnecessary.
15:06 khall gotcha. I was trying to make those subs work both statically and dymanically
15:06 jcamins As the original author, it is your right to dictate the One True Way for retrieving Borrower Modifications in Koha.
15:06 jcamins It's the latter that troubles me more.
15:05 jcamins [off] http://kohadev.cpbibliography.com/cover_db/Koha-Borrower-Modifications-pm.html
15:05 jcamins It's stylistically problematic, but it also makes unit tests difficult.
15:04 khall ok, I'm still not understanding why it's a problem. What are the ill effects? Or is it just bad style?
15:03 jcamins The other is OO, where you call the routine $mymodifications->GetModifications()
15:03 jcamins One is procedural, where you call the routines with Koha::Borrower::Modifications->GetModifications(borrowernumber => $number)
15:02 jcamins khall: the problem is that it makes for two entirely separate code pathways.
15:01 paul_p kroditi hello again !!!
15:01 khall I can fix those. Just for my own education, what is the problem with that idiom?
15:01 * kf is confused now
15:01 paul_p kroditi hello !!!
15:00 jcamins Missed one.
15:00 kroditi druthb: hi ruth its paul teaching translation to kroditi
15:00 jcamins Sorry.
15:00 wahanui 320
15:00 jcamins Oh, and 320.
15:00 jcamins khall: line 206, 233, and 268 are where I spotted it.
14:59 jcamins drojf: well, as the current RM I declare we are going to follow the guidelines the community agreed upon.
14:59 drojf maybe you people should have a fight over it
14:59 drojf fwiw i got a "QA comment: This patch has one problem that must be solved before being pushed : the Koha:: namespace must contain OO code only, the Koha/HTML5Media.pm is not OO" once from paul_p
14:58 khall didn't I get that fixed? Or did I miss something.
14:58 jcamins The part of the OO code that troubles me is the if (ref($self)) idiom.
14:56 khall If we get dbix class in, this code could become part of the class file for that table
14:56 * jcamins thinks the former.
14:56 khall However, I don't think there is anything wrong with it being OO
14:55 khall jcamins, that's good to know. I've been shot down on patches in the past *only* because they were not OO. Either my shooter didn't know this, or the rules were changed.
14:55 vfernandes yes I understand the shell script and where the problem was
14:55 paul_p druthb yep, it works again. strange
14:55 druthb oh, I'm sure. It was locked up hard. I have restarted apache, and it's chugging along nicely now, for me, paul_p. Working for you?
14:55 jcamins khall: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Namespace_QA_Rules ("use Object Oriented (OO) style everywhere it makes sense")
14:54 paul_p druthb strange, because I can promise that 10mn ago, we waited for a page for more than 2 minuts, and never got any results :(
14:54 wahanui coding guidelines are http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Coding_Guidelines
14:54 jcamins coding guidelines?
14:54 jcamins Let me find the guidlines.
14:53 jcamins Nope. Anything for which OO makes sense should be OO, but if you have procedural data, the code can be procedural.
14:53 slef vfernandes: can you understand shell script and what the bug was before (the [ command thought the ] was on the end of the argument and not the closing ] delimiter)?
14:53 vfernandes slef I can't test it, but the bug patch is very simple...
14:52 khall I was told anything in the Koha namespace had to be OO or it wouldn't be accepted
14:52 jcamins So I was looking at your unit test (84% statement coverage, BTW, very nice!), and I was wondering why you'd decided to make Koha::Borrower::Modifications OO.
14:51 jcamins Here we go.
14:50 khall ok
14:50 jcamins Let me switch to that branch.
14:50 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=7067 new feature, P5 - low, ---, kyle.m.hall, Signed Off , allow patron self registration via the opac
14:50 jcamins I'm looking at bug 7067, and I was hoping you could walk me through some of it.
14:49 druthb do not tempt me in that fashion, drojf. Gotta get it moved first.
14:49 khall indeed, what's up?
14:49 jcamins khall: around?
14:49 slef vfernandes: ah, dang, you'd need to have the packages installed already :-/
14:48 drojf then i wouldn't mind, just burn the old machine :P
14:48 vfernandes slef: ./koha-run-backups: 58: ./koha-run-backups: koha-list: not found
14:48 druthb No, it hasn't.
14:48 druthb I'll restart things again. Very peculiar.
14:48 drojf did it move already?
14:47 paul_p druthb = seems translate.koha-community.org is down again :'(
14:46 drojf lol

14:45 slef Bug 9262 has been added to the database
14:44 jcamins The people who don't develop dozens of patches don't actually need to set patch complexity, as far as I'm concerned.
14:44 slef vfernandes: review it. Only signoff if you agree with it ;-)
14:44 drojf that may be the point when the release manager's pointy stick comes in
14:44 jcamins drojf: the people who develop a lot will fill it in because their RM demands it.
14:44 jcamins drojf: right.
14:43 kf all ok with that
14:43 drojf if it is optional, noone is ever going to ask again ;)
14:43 jcamins kf: yes, that's why I asked that he make it optional.
14:43 kf not mandatory
14:43 kf jcamins: the problem was it hast to be optional then
14:43 jcamins drojf: but I have wasted far more time explaining to people how to set it than I would requesting that people set it.
14:42 jcamins drojf: people will learn to set it.
14:41 vfernandes slef you want me to sign off the bug?
14:41 drojf if it's optional it may be invisible too :P

14:41 jcamins @later tell rangi The patch complexity field on bugs.k-c.org.
14:40 huginn jcamins: The operation succeeded.
14:40 jcamins @later tell rangi Could you please make the patch complexity field optional and always visible?
14:40 drojf slef: another fan of the complexity field i understand

14:38 slef as in, 1 page up, 1 page right :-/
14:38 slef bloody miles away from the other dropdown
14:38 slef aha, so it does
14:37 jcamins Right under "Sponsored."
14:37 slef where should complexity appear?
14:37 slef that doesn't look like it's worked
14:37 jcamins slef: probably, yes.
14:36 slef :-(
14:36 slef guess I have to permit bugs.k-c.o to run javascript
14:36 slef nope, can't see it
14:36 slef <drojf> it worked now after restart and ctrl+f5
14:35 kf it worked now after restart and ctrl+f5 <
14:34 jcamins vfernandes: yes, they're on the bug.

14:32 jcamins I don't know of a better way to explain.
14:32 slef jcamins: done that. There is no field.
14:32 jcamins You'll see what I mean.
14:32 jcamins slef: in the dropdown.
14:32 slef jcamins: how do I change the status without saving it?
14:32 slef wahanui++
14:32 jcamins vfernandes: in that case, you could review the security concerns and try to address them.
14:31 wahanui jcamins: that doesn't look right
14:31 jcamins slef: change the status to "Needs signoff" but don't save it, then the patch complexity field shows up.
14:31 slef There is no 'Patch complexity' field!
14:30 slef buh
14:30 slef A value must be set for the 'Patch complexity' field.
14:30 vfernandes which is exactly that bug
14:29 vfernandes ok jcamins... but I have a client problem that they want to use schedule task
14:29 jcamins Here's a list of bugs awaiting sign off: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/buglist.cgi?cmdtype=dorem&remaction=run&namedcmd=Needs%20Signoff&sharer_id=1
14:28 jcamins It's been signed off for months, and no one has addressed the security concerns.
14:28 jcamins I'd recommend against spending time on that patch.
14:27 vfernandes ok...
14:27 jcamins That's a git conflict. You'll get those with older patches.
14:26 jcamins I would recommend focusing on patches that are marked "Need signoff"
14:26 vfernandes when running "git bz apply 1993"
14:26 vfernandes Failed to merge in the changes. Patch failed at 0001 Bug 1993: Improving task scheduler When you have resolved this problem run "git am --resolved". If you would prefer to skip this patch, instead run "git am --skip". To restore the original branch and stop patching run "git am --abort". Patch left in /tmp/Signed-Off-Bug-1993-Improving-task-scheduler-5KDy9a.p
14:25 jcamins No one has addressed the security concerns.
14:25 wahanui nothing is a requirement, we have guidelines though

14:23 vfernandes what's happening with bug 1993?
14:20 vfernandes ok thanks
14:19 kf vfernandes: what I do is create a new branch, confirm the bug, apply patch wit git bz apply, then test, git commit --amend -s and then git bz attach -e
14:18 slef if so, there's a "git qa" alias on the wiki which may help - uses git-bz which is also linked in the wiki
14:17 vfernandes yes...
14:17 slef vfernandes: test the suggested patch, you mean?
14:17 vfernandes which is the best way to test a bug using git?

13:43 jcamins H: double click tcohen's name in the nick list on the right. :)
13:43 tcohen i think we are spamming a lot
13:43 H no
13:43 tcohen do u know how to go private on your IRC client?
13:43 tcohen is it still pulling i386 stuff?
13:42 tcohen sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade ?

13:26 nengard my tired brain ? not me
13:26 nengard thanks for bearing with me tired brain
13:26 nengard yup, that's what I'm gonna say
13:26 tcohen (sitting on the koha sources dir)
13:26 jcamins nengard: right, there's no way around that that I'm aware of.
13:26 tcohen ./koha_perl_deps.pl -m -u -c
13:25 H sorry i need some guidance here lol
13:24 tcohen jsut in case
13:24 tcohen and then install by hands the missing bits
13:24 tcohen i'd rather run the koha_perl_deps.pl script
13:24 nengard jcamins - okay i understand he says there is no separator punctuation that way - it's just s a space
13:23 H ill run the command from jcamins ?
13:23 H no error
13:21 tcohen put sudo before the dpkg thing
13:21 H sudo echo "libxslt1-dev:i386 deinstall" | dpkg --set-selections dpkg: error: operation requires read/write access to dpkg status area
13:20 tcohen not sure why is still pulling it
13:19 tcohen echo "libxslt1-dev:i386 deinstall" | dpkg --set-selections
13:19 H ah do i try or wait ?
13:19 jcamins sudo apt-get -y install `cat install_misc/ubuntu.12.04.packages | grep install | sed -e 's/install\$//' | tr -d ' \\t' | tr '\\n' ' '`
13:19 tcohen first issue this:
13:18 H i lost the jcamins command
13:16 H http://users.telenet.be/webwijzer/koha/term4.jpg
13:16 nengard i'll test
13:16 nengard jcamins i have a report that it's not
13:14 tcohen if that's true, then you can use jcamins's command to install all the deps
13:13 tcohen (it shouldnt say it needs i386 dependencies)
13:13 tcohen run apt-get dselect-upgrade
13:13 H http://users.telenet.be/webwijzer/koha/term3.jpg
13:12 jcamins ExtractValue always concats all the values it matches, doesn't it?
13:12 nengard if i concat the 650 and group by biblionumber will that work?
13:11 nengard wait - that doesn't even show subjects :) that's finds specific words - sorry I'm very tired
13:10 pastebot "tcohen" at 172.16.248.199 pasted "This secquence should revert t" (8 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/309
13:10 nengard i want to grab all 650s in one column
13:10 nengard that shows each subject heading once
13:10 nengard jcamins http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/SQL_Reports_Library#Bibs_with_specific_keyword_in_subjects
13:10 jcamins There's nothing efficient about accessing MARCXML directly in MySQL, but it'll work.
13:09 H ok i dont do the `sudo apt-get remove ${PKG_NAME} ${PKG_NAME}:i386` but i do your code just a sec
13:09 nengard but i'll take a look again
13:09 nengard don't think mine was done efficiently
13:09 jcamins nengard: you wrote it.
13:09 jcamins nengard: there's an example of a report that does exactly that on the wiki.
13:08 nengard is there a way in mysql to get all subjects (all 650s) in one column? Some sort of CONCAT I'm sure ? just not sure how specifically
13:08 tcohen this will remove those i386 pull requests
13:08 tcohen apt-get dselect-upgrade
13:08 tcohen and test everything is back to normal
13:08 H is this afther i removed them ?
13:08 tcohen dpkg --set-selections < install_list
13:07 tcohen for i in $(dpkg --get-selections | grep deinstall | cut -f1) ; do echo -e "$i\tinstall" >> install_list ; done
13:07 tcohen dpkg --clear-selections
13:07 tcohen dpkg --get-selections '*' > selections
13:07 H ow ok so i go 1by 1 then :)
13:06 jcamins Oh good, now I return you to tcohen.
13:06 jcamins You have to replace ${PKG_NAME} with each package you want to remove.
13:06 tcohen got it
13:06 jcamins It didn't do anything.
13:06 H ok that was faster then 1 by 1
13:05 jcamins I only ever use packages.
13:05 jcamins At least, I believe that is how you do it.
13:05 jcamins (you do this by running `sudo apt-get remove ${PKG_NAME} ${PKG_NAME}:i386`
13:04 jcamins You'll need to remove all of them.
13:03 jcamins Looks like you still have a whole bunch of i386 packages installed.
13:02 H http://mibpaste.com/6JeFHr
13:00 H ok there we go
13:00 jcamins Sure, it's worth a try.
13:00 H i try ?
13:00 tcohen its similar to the script actually
13:00 tcohen that would be ok
12:59 jcamins tcohen: what about just doing sudo apt-get -y install `cat install_misc/ubuntu.12.04.packages | grep install | sed -e 's/install\$//' | tr -d ' \\t' | tr '\\n' ' '` 2>&1
12:54 H this one /koha/koha-3.08.07/install_misc/ubuntu-pkg-check.sh
12:53 H ill do ?
12:53 H i found ubuntu-pkg-check.sh
12:52 tcohen thats why mark and i put some effort on that ubuntu-pkg-check.sh script
12:51 tcohen because of that --set-selections step
12:51 tcohen the install instructions for ubuntu are broken a while ago
12:51 tcohen jcamins, true
12:50 tcohen H grab the ubuntu-pkg-check.sh file from the patch for 8840, it will print a copy and paste list of packages to tell apt-get to install
12:50 jcamins (apparently... I didn't know that before now)
12:49 jcamins tcohen: it is only the tarball that doesn't work with Ubuntu.
12:49 jcamins tcohen: Ubuntu is fully-supported with packages.
12:49 H i'm taking notes so next time i maybe do it with less problems
12:48 H :)
12:48 H still here
12:48 tcohen H, i'm still testing
12:48 tcohen we need to fully support Ubuntu then, because its really widespread
12:42 jcamins Fewer moving parts.
12:41 jcamins This is why I always tell people to use the packages.
12:40 H thx and sorry for the trouble
12:40 * jcamins will let tcohen take over, since he's willing to spend a lot more time testing this sort of thing.
12:39 H i'm not going annywhere
12:39 tcohen to test first
12:39 tcohen im breaking my box
12:39 tcohen wait a minute
12:38 H it did not gave errors :)
12:38 H how do i know its ok
12:38 H ehm i did run the script
12:38 tcohen i need to break my box like you to test
12:37 tcohen so it stops pulling i386 deps?
12:37 tcohen dpkg --set-selections < deinstall_list
12:37 jcamins Ooh, tcohen's script will do it even faster.
12:37 jcamins `sudo apt-get remove libxml2-dev`
12:37 tcohen for i in $(dpkg --get-selections | grep i386 | cut -f1) ; do echo -e "$i\tdeinstall" >> deinstall_list ; done
12:37 H i started with 10 so :)
12:36 H only have 4 not working dependensies left
12:36 H how do i do that ?
12:36 H then i tried cpan
12:36 jcamins Right, so I'd start by removing libxml2-dev
12:36 H first with sudo apt-get install lib...-...-perl
12:35 H i then tried to install the dependecies that did not work
12:35 jcamins Yeah, that doesn't work.
12:35 H that was 2)
12:35 H 1) i did do $ sudo apt-get install dselect $ sudo dpkg --set-selections < install_misc/ubuntu.12.04.packages $ sudo dselect
12:34 jcamins H: I promise you, we can get Koha working with packages.
12:34 tcohen H, let me think for a minute
12:33 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8840 normal, P5 - low, ---, tomascohen, Failed QA , ubuntu-pkg-check.sh fix and extend functionality
12:33 tcohen it was intended, in conjunction with bug 8840
12:33 jcamins H: did you add an apt line?
12:33 H the instructions did not work so
12:32 jcamins H: use the packages rather than the tarball.
12:32 jcamins tcohen: didn't we update the instructions to say to not do that?
12:32 H what can i do ?
12:32 tcohen that's the problem
12:32 H yes
12:32 tcohen did u use dpkg --set-selections < something?
12:31 H Linux koha-pr 3.2.0-24-virtual #39-Ubuntu SMP Mon May 21 18:44:18 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
12:31 wajasu :)
12:31 tcohen uname -a
12:31 H checking
12:31 tcohen (is it an amd64 box?)
12:30 tcohen dpkg --get-selections | grep i386
12:30 jcamins wajasu: told you it would go a lot better if you wrote a script intended to do that.
12:30 jcamins What I'd do is set up an apt line adding the oldstable repo then `sudo apt-get remove libxml2-dev; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install koha`
12:30 wajasu ok. got my script somewhat working that generates auth records. the modbiblio works fine, adding my $9 links. after zebra rebuild of biblios and auths i'm seeing consolidated bibs under the same heading now.
12:29 tcohen it sounds familiar... some1 pulling i386 packages on a amd64 box because of --set-selections maybe?
12:28 jcamins H: I only see a log from trying to install libxml2-dev.
12:26 H with packages i get http://users.telenet.be/webwijzer/koha/term2.jpg
12:19 jcamins_away H: yes, use packages.
12:15 H annyone knows how to solve this http://users.telenet.be/webwijzer/koha/term.jpg
12:03 H ill keep searching ... :OP
12:02 kf maybe someone else has an idea
12:02 kf not sure then
12:02 kf ah ok :)
12:02 H welll on my pc at home it works also lol :)

12:00 H but now he wont move i tried cpan also but also no good
12:00 kf you have to add it to your sources list first
11:59 H just a koha library no development .... sudo apt-get install koha-common does not work on my virtual machine so i wen t for the installation procedure in the txtfile (i've installed my test machine 6 months ago 3.8.1 this way)
11:57 kf you can install all dependencies very easily using the packages
11:57 wahanui i think packages is at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian
11:57 kf packages?
11:57 kf H: have you seen the packages?
11:56 kf H: what is your goal? do you want to do development or just see how koha works?
11:56 H ubuntu 12.04 lts virtual machine i try 3.8.07
11:30 kf H: which version are you trying to install on which OS?
11:27 gerundio I was able to install that lib on my server with that exact same command
11:27 gerundio H, the command you used was 'apt-get install libxml-libxslt-perl'?
11:26 wahanui second question is "What is the exact error message?"
11:26 slef second question?
11:26 slef H: what happened then you tried aptitude or apt-get?
11:07 H i'm fighting with koha here Net::Z3950::ZOOM XML::LibXSLT are missing i tried aptitude search lib...-...-perl sudo apt-get install lib...-...-perl anny more tips here (i work on a virtual server)
10:14 vfernandes bom dia :)
10:14 gerundio hey vfernandes, bom dia
10:13 vfernandes hi :)
09:56 gerundio any idea on how to fix it?
09:56 gerundio I'm getting this warning "zebraidx(23223) [warn] Missing attribute 'type' in attribute info"

09:18 drojf @wunder berlin, germany
09:09 drojf kf: i am thinking of having a package of koha3.x.x + bug_12345. to apply the patch i have to put something there.
08:51 kf it was said that the new updatedatabase mechanism will solve that... but I haven't looked at it yet
08:51 kf I wouldn't mess with version numbers
08:51 kf there are probably examples in atomicsomething
08:51 kf drojf: maybe just do an executable sql file?
08:34 drojf is there a common practice for locally numbering the db revision if i add a patch that has not been pushed yet to a local package? the XXX irritates the perl tests. would i just take the next number? if i deployed such a package and later upgraded, would everything explode because there is going to be another db revision with the same number?

06:41 magnuse cait: you're starting the day with a lol? yay!
06:41 * magnuse waves
06:30 cait um evening
06:30 cait morning rangi :)
06:29 rangi hi cait
06:28 cait morning #koha
06:27 cait lol
06:22 rangi yep, and it will support UNIMARC, NORMARC and MARC21, depending on what they have set they systempreference to
06:21 reeset so I wasn't sure
06:21 reeset That's kind of how I read it, but it doesn't actually say it supports it in the documentation.
06:20 rangi actually it looks like new_bib will ignore itemdata unless you set the items param
06:20 reeset I'll see if Galen can update the test instance he's setup for me to work with and check the behavior
06:19 reeset Ok -- I'm hoping that's the case
06:19 reeset I figured that might be the case -- I was just hoping I was missing an API call to get version since presumably, as api are added, you'll need specific versions to support them
06:19 rangi probably do that by default, if you record has 952 data
06:18 rangi we do 6 monthly feature releases, and monthly bugfix releases, but people pretty much upgrade whenever they want, some always run the latest releases, lots don't
06:18 reeset Does the new record api support the item bit setting for adding items or will it do that by default?
06:15 reeset Ok -- that's somewhat problematic -- but I'll figure out how to try and deal with this without confusing folks.
06:15 rangi nope, some people are still running 2.2.x versions from 2004ish
06:14 rangi 3.6.x is still supported
06:14 reeset So then do most people update right away -- because some API functions only work with 3.8.
06:14 rangi but no there is no api method that will return the versionnumber
06:13 rangi 3.8.8 will be out on the 22nd of december, 3.8.0 was out in april
06:00 reeset I'm also curious of this is just supported on the update record API. I can see folks wanting to add items when creating new records as well -- but the documentation doesn't say if the ?item=1 bit is supported or necessary for that purpose and I can't test it.
05:59 reeset Especially since the testing instance Galen had setup for me was using 3.06.08.000 -- so I can't even test the ?item=1 bit on the api.
05:59 reeset but the api seems to indicate that this only works in 3.8 and I'm not sure how quickly people move their versions forward.
05:58 reeset I've been chatting with Galen and a few folks playing with the MarcEdit work I've been doing and they want the ability to edit item data...
05:58 reeset I'm curious -- is there an API method that will return the koha version number?
01:05 dcook Well, time to call it a day. Thanks again for the info and test, jcamins
00:48 jcamins We have non-USian films on DVD.
00:47 dcook I suppose that's the downside, but optical media seem so passé at this point, despite certain...vulnerabilities they might have
00:46 wizzyrea and get a drm free copy
00:46 wizzyrea because you can still rip blu rays
00:46 wizzyrea of course that would really suck
00:46 wizzyrea i would find it infinitely amusing if we went to strictly digital distribution
00:46 dcook Can't say that I have any myself or know anyone that does
00:45 dcook Haha. No kidding
00:44 jcamins See how much it occurs in my world? ;)
00:44 jcamins dcook: right, whatever it's called.
00:44 dcook Blue ray as in Blu-ray? I certainly wouldn't disagree..
00:43 dcook Sweet. Thanks, jcamins
00:42 jcamins Okay... am I wrong to think that Blue ray is entirely unnecessary at this juncture?
00:41 jcamins Done.
00:40 jcamins Good idea.
00:39 dcook I might be a bit OCD, but I imagine someone else might have the same question eventually
00:38 dcook I just requested a wiki account, but could you add a bit at the bottom about how other languages will still be indexed correctly despite the customizations for Arabic?
00:36 dcook Cool :)
00:32 jcamins Fixed.
00:31 jcamins The point of confusion was the addition of the "UseICU" syspref, which does not enable ICU, but was added for 3.8.
00:31 dcook *thumbs up*
00:31 dcook Ahh
00:31 jcamins That's what I'm changing.
00:31 dcook But one would still need to change from the .chr file to the .xml file somehow..
00:31 jcamins Right.
00:30 dcook Mind you, that might be because there was a change to use a variable set by Makefile, I think...
00:30 dcook There's no mention in 3.8+
00:30 dcook Oh no, it's just the part about modifying default.idx is only under 3.6 and under
00:29 jcamins -ish.
00:29 jcamins I'll be done soon.
00:29 jcamins Sorry.
00:29 jcamins dcook: you mean because I'm presently editing it?
00:28 dcook Hmm, the layout isn't quite right on that page..
00:26 dcook By all means. It would be worth adding a mention that setting a locale still allows one to index other languages properly. I would say it's easy to test, but only if one has records in multiple languages and has knowledge of those multiple languages.
00:25 jcamins I should update that.
00:25 jcamins drojf: no.
00:24 jcamins I think there is a way to map a prefix to nil. That'd be convenient.
00:24 drojf you only need to turn the syspref on for 3.8?
00:24 jcamins Oh, I already said that.
00:24 jcamins Hm.
00:24 jcamins Hm.
00:22 jcamins Oh, wow, nice page!
00:22 jcamins That's the one.
00:22 dcook I didn't notice this before either: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Correcting_Search_of_Arabic_records
00:21 dcook http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.education.libraries.koha.devel/8833
00:21 dcook Mhm
00:21 jcamins Yeah, that's the one I meant. It's in e-mail an e-mail somewhere.
00:21 jcamins And Zebra doesn't do stemming for Arabic no way, no how.
00:21 dcook Karam Qubsi mentioned something about prefixes and suffixes
00:21 jcamins There's an icu chains file for handling al- (why did I disable the Arabic keyboard? It makes it difficult to type in Arabic).
00:20 jcamins Which issues?
00:19 dcook I'll have to remember to report back on how it turns out.
00:19 dcook I'll have to do my test later on. I think there might still be some issues with Arabic that ICU doesn't solve without some customizations, but...that's another story
00:19 dcook Hehe. I love easy answers
00:18 jcamins I love easy questions.
00:18 jcamins You're welcome.
00:18 dcook jcamins++
00:18 dcook Thanks for looking to that, jcamins
00:18 dcook Sweet!
00:17 jcamins So I think you should be fine with any locale at all. :)
00:17 jcamins And, yes, searching for Hebrew works great.
00:17 jcamins I'm sorry, my locale is ""
00:16 drojf rangi: i guess it would have worked, thanks. now i apparently have no space left on device and rather go to bed :/
00:16 dcook Excellent. Thanks, jcamins :)
00:16 jcamins One moment...
00:15 jcamins I'll just confirm that it's still working on Master.
00:15 jcamins Yup. :)
00:15 dcook Intriguing
00:15 dcook Yeah?
00:15 jcamins I search Hebrew records with a locale of fr.
00:15 jcamins To be honest, me too.
00:14 dcook I'm confused by the purpose of the locale attribute then though
00:14 dcook Glad to hear it :)
00:13 jcamins In that case, I don't think you'll run into problems.
00:12 dcook It's only about 10,000 bibs
00:12 jcamins If >500k, you might need the very latest version of Zebra.
00:11 jcamins How many records?
00:11 jcamins Nope. No problems at all that I know of.
00:11 dcook Since it's a multilingual library
00:10 dcook I figure it should work fine using an icu_chain locale of "ar", but I wonder if that will cause problems with the English and French records
00:10 jcamins Go for it!
00:10 dcook jcamins: Yep. Have thought about moving a library over to using ICU so that the Arabic is indexed properly
00:09 jcamins dcook: questions about ICU?
