01:07 pianohackr|work All I really want is the latest graphviz with collision avoidance on edges
01:07 pianohackr|work Why in god's name am I building ocaml from source?
01:07 slef needs updates... ideally being a click-sortable table like I think thd suggested but I don't know any plugin for that OTTOMH
01:08 richard yay
01:08 richard thanks chris
01:08 slef wizzyrea: can you update Turo Technology LLP to software.coop please?  We completed that transition a while ago.
01:08 chris i can
01:08 chris email me whatever text you want and ill change it right now
01:08 pianohackr|work an easy-to-see field like "Geographical Area" would be nice
01:08 slef oh, can we have logins again?
01:08 chris we sure can
01:08 chris you'll need to ask wizzy for that
01:08 chris but i can make changes in the meantime
01:08 chris is that the only bit you want changed?
01:08 slef chris@bigballofwax?

01:25 slef http://tobias.baethge.com/word[…]reloaded-english/ is a more involved method
01:26 slef main thing we'd need to decide is what columns to list
01:27 chris *nod*
01:28 chris way i figure it, pure alphabetical is 100 times better than what we used to have, and we can just keep improving it
01:28 chris at least i can add kyle and zeno now
01:29 slef come near the end of the alphabet and see if you still agree ;-)
01:29 slef but the previous list discussion was right: sortable is The Right Way
01:29 * gmcharlt awaits the Aaaardvark Koha Consultancy
01:30 slef gmcharlt: there used to be a guy in the phone book where I grew up called "Zzitz, Zeke Z"
01:30 * chilts creates A1 Koha Consulting Limites :)
01:30 chilts Limited even :D
01:30 gmcharlt he or his parents didn't know when to stop, evidently ;)
01:30 * slef starts !!!Koha!!! Co
01:31 chilts heh

01:43 braedon hmm, any ideas what could cause the MARC record import tool to duplicate some biblios on import? the staged record manager shows the correct number of biblios, but once imported there are 513 extra biblios in the database. The duplicates seem to have no items attached.
01:52 gmcharlt 3.2 alpha tagged
01:53 chris w00t
01:55 Jo for the non-geeks among us, Galen please what does alpha tagged mean?
01:56 gmcharlt Jo: it basically means that I've drawn a line in the sand - i.e., this point is 3.2 alpha
01:56 Jo woo hoo!
01:56 Jo go you
01:56 joetho clap clap clap clap clap clap!
01:57 Jo this is quite a big step
01:57 brendan w00t
01:58 Jo I'll share a nice story with you: just heard of a computer guy in Palmerston who volantarily installed Koha for a school, and the local librarisn are cataloguing the schools library - after hours as volunteers :)

02:15 chris nice range of ppl contributed to 3.2
02:17 Jo Oh look at that ... that is such a community effort!
02:17 wizzyrea_ :)
02:18 wizzyrea_ back looking at the site if you have more you want to do
02:18 Jo would you like to correct a date?
02:18 wizzyrea_ though I'd be just as happy playing video games >.>
02:18 wizzyrea_ sure
02:18 wizzyrea_ url?
02:19 Jo http://koha-community.org/ - the date for the general koha meeting says 2009 - should be 2010
02:19 wizzyrea_ O naught gmcharlt!
02:19 wizzyrea_ naughty~
02:19 wizzyrea_ done :)
02:19 Jo I am amazed at how quickly you guys have got this thing up and running and gorgeous :)
02:20 gmcharlt wizzyrea: 9 February 20010 ? are you planning to make me immortal for that?
02:20 wizzyrea_ HA
02:20 wizzyrea_ naughty wizzy!
02:20 Jo 20010 is not actually much of an improvement my ove :)
02:20 gmcharlt (not that I would complain if you could do it! :) )
02:20 wizzyrea_ there, this time with feeling
02:21 Jo the other thing was for the staff demop I needed a login and password
02:21 wizzyrea_ Oh, true. I will add that info
02:21 Jo cool
02:22 Jo and my only other comment was to include kohacon 2010 somewher .. maybe under events?
02:23 Jo I did try and register but have not recieved an email. I figured it might not be active yet?
02:24 wizzyrea_ well, there are no SPF records for koha-community.org, so it likely got nuked as spam :(
02:25 wizzyrea_ yes, I was going to add that as well. Kinda hoping chris would write the article ;) but I know he's super busy
02:25 wizzyrea_ mine took a good 10-ish minutes to come through when I was testing
02:26 Jo can't you just steal his work while hes not looking?
02:27 wizzyrea_ HEE. I like how you think
02:28 wizzyrea_ <lazy> can somebody hit me with the kohacon10 url?</lazy
02:28 wizzyrea_ >
02:28 chris http://kohacon.appspot.com/
02:30 wizzyrea_ ty kindly
02:30 chris_n fwiw, my registration email got nuked by gmail anti-spam
02:31 chris yeah check the spam folder
02:32 IrmaCalyx joined #koha
02:33 Jo ok
02:33 wizzyrea_ yea, not surprising :(
02:33 wizzyrea_ the controls on the DNS for domainz are kind of sparse
02:34 wizzyrea_ and I hesitate to host the DNS @ NEKLS since we'll be changing our ISP in the next few months
02:34 wizzyrea_ and not sure how slaving is going to work :/
02:34 wizzyrea_ with the new ISP
02:34 wizzyrea_ so if someone wants to volunteer to host the DNS, that would be cool
02:35 wizzyrea_ helpful for me, def, b/c then we could have wildcards and subdomain blogs
02:35 wizzyrea_ since koha-community.org is running wpmu
02:36 chris ah jo went with domainz not freeparking?
02:38 wizzyrea_ ya
02:39 Jo yep
02:40 Jo we had an account with them already and didn'twant stuff all over the place
02:42 chris fair enough
02:44 wizzyrea_ maybe the people who host the dns for kete.co.nz would be willing to host koha-community.org DNS as well?
02:44 wizzyrea_ says she who is totally ignorant of anything and everything surrounding kete and/or who does what in NZ
02:44 wizzyrea_ :P
02:45 wizzyrea_ gmcharlt love that you put the release notes on the site
02:45 wizzyrea_ what a relief to finally have a place to put that stuff, eh
02:45 gmcharlt wizzyrea_: Kete, HLT, Kete, HLT - why do I think there's a connection :P
02:45 chris it feels like 2004 again
02:46 wizzyrea_ i hope that's a good thing :P
02:46 chris yep
02:46 wizzyrea_ I think we should be sure to tag/categorize as granularly as possible
02:46 wizzyrea_ since we can
02:47 chris yup
02:51 Jo I don't understand the question but I don't see why not
02:51 Jo Chris?
02:52 chris its not me
02:52 Jo dns stuff - who would know?
02:52 Jo simon?
02:52 chris yeah katipo host the dns for kete.net.nz
02:52 Jo I am blissfully unaware of the detail of loads of stuff i am involved in :)
02:52 Jo Richard: are you about still?
02:53 richard hi jo
02:53 Jo can you read back a second or 2 and asnwer the question about hosting the dns
02:53 Jo can we do it?
02:53 Jo (we as in you :)
02:54 wizzyrea_ no particular epic hurry, fwiw. It's working in the capacity we need it to now. :)
02:55 richard i don't see why not. where is the record now?
02:56 wizzyrea_ it's in the domainz default config
02:56 IrmaCalyx G'day all
02:56 wizzyrea_ just doing forwarding
02:56 IrmaCalyx what an exciting day today !!!
02:57 IrmaCalyx So much good news
02:57 Jo hi Irma
02:57 IrmaCalyx hi Jo  terrific progress today
02:59 IrmaCalyx i sent a tweet with new website
02:59 wizzyrea_ I'm actually quite pleased with how it is turning out.
03:00 chris yeah its looking good
03:00 IrmaCalyx I like to ask about the possibility to include in 3.2 Australian English spelling
03:00 IrmaCalyx is there time for that?
03:00 chris if you are fast
03:00 chris you can base it on either the NZ or the GB one
03:00 IrmaCalyx catalogue is one term
03:00 chris yeah thats all fixed in the NZ and GB ones
03:01 IrmaCalyx P.O. Box?
03:01 chris that too

03:10 wizzyrea_ best time conversion website?
03:11 chris we dont restrict koha to this planet, or even to reality ;-)
03:11 wizzyrea_ hahahaha
03:11 gmcharlt wizzyrea: wolfram-alpha
03:11 chris wolfram alpha does a decent job
03:11 gmcharlt btw, note that I set the time zone for the events calendar to London
03:11 wizzyrea_ fine by me
03:11 gmcharlt closest to UTC+0 that the events widget offers
03:11 chris close enough
03:11 chris yeah
03:12 wizzyrea_ it sure is pretty
03:12 IrmaCalyx re KohaCon ...I have started writing an invitation and hope to be able to have it translated in all Koha's languages
03:12 wizzyrea_ I can't stop admiring it >.>

03:13 pianohacker hi, chris
03:13 IrmaCalyx must go back and tackle some of my tasks - cheers.
03:13 pianohacker I had a nitpick question: does the test suite requirement for alpha->beta include the db-dependent suite?
03:14 pianohacker cya, IrmaCalyx
03:14 IrmaCalyx cia all
03:14 * chris defers to gmcharlt
03:14 pianohacker Cool
03:14 gmcharlt pianohacker: the portions that are applicable, yes - if parts are hopelessly out of date, it would be OK to remove them
03:14 pianohacker Good to know
03:15 pianohacker Once I get the sysprefs editor in more reasonable shape, might poke at that
03:15 gmcharlt but normally, of course, a failing DB-depdent test *does* indicate that something had changed, after all ;)

03:19 chris hehe
03:20 * chris_n crawls under the table
03:20 pianohacker chris_n: Feel like updating the translation system to include .pref files?
03:20 chris_n actually he climbs on top of the table and enjoys his 30 seconds of glory :-)
03:20 pianohacker I've only been avoiding it for nine months now
03:21 chris_n pianohacker: I think I'm free between 0100 and 0500 each day....
03:21 pianohacker Hahahaha, know that feeling
03:25 joetho tlhIngan Hol ??

03:26 chris i wonder what a king response is?
03:26 chris need help waiting for king response to my message posted yesterday
03:26 pianohacker We need a bot that we can poke and will spit out a random username that should respond to a mailing list post nobody's touched
03:26 chris :)
03:27 joetho well *I* need a bot to do that
03:27 chris it can be
03:27 chris king_response_bot
03:27 wizzyrea_ king probably = kind
03:27 wizzyrea_ kind response
03:27 wizzyrea_ but that's way not as fun

13:22 jwagner (And I'm working from home -- got to sleep in a bit....)
13:22 chris_n` joined #koha
13:22 jwagner But good morning anyway.

13:23 gmcharlt good morning

13:25 owen Hi all
13:25 chris_n heya owen
13:27 owen I hearby nominate wizzyrea to take over Koha.org when it returns to the community's hands. koha-community.org looks fantastic.
13:27 owen wizzyrea++
13:28 owen It's a perfect WordPress theme for us
13:28 Colin Any documentation on how budgets are supposed to work in 3.2? Seem unable to commit against them
13:29 owen hdl_laptop or paul_p? Could we get a quick lesson on budgets?
13:36 magnus jwagner: move to europe, then you could have your morning in the middle of the day :-)
13:38 Ropuch hehe
13:39 jwagner magnus, but then my mornings would come in the middle of the night!
13:40 magnus jwagner: nah, it's 2 pm here now - perfect time for a morning if you ask me
13:42 jwagner I'm sure there's a good argument against that logic.  I'll find it when I wake up :-)
13:45 magnus ;-)
13:46 nengard owen - it is perfect - so perfect I chose it for my book (http://opensource.web2learning.net) and now I have to change it :(
13:49 nahuel owen, !
13:49 nahuel hi
13:49 nahuel :)
13:49 owen Hi nahuel
13:49 nahuel did you see your last patch on admin/marc_subfield_structure.pl on 3.0.x ?
13:49 nahuel and my previous patch
13:50 chris_n gmcharlt: patch resubmitted for opac-reserve.pl
13:50 nengard Colin - I'm still waiting for some help on that from BibLibre - the budgets documentation :(
13:50 owen nahuel: ?
13:50 nahuel héhé
13:50 nahuel I made a patch :
13:51 nahuel -            -name     => "mandatory",
13:51 nahuel +            -name     => "mandatory$i",
13:51 nahuel and you patched the file as :
13:51 nahuel -            -name     => "mandatory$i",
13:51 nahuel +            -name     => "mandatory",
13:51 nahuel so it doesn't work anymore
13:51 owen nahuel: I did?
13:52 nahuel It seem you did :)
13:52 * owen wonders if he has been sleep-patching
13:52 chris_n lol :-)
13:52 nahuel héhé
13:54 owen I don't have any recollection of making that change!
13:54 owen You have my apologies for breaking something
13:55 jdavidb hdl_laptop: ping?
13:56 hdl_laptop jdavidb: yes
13:57 kf hdl_laptop: thx for your email, will try at the weekend (or today after dentist...)
13:57 jdavidb This icu thing is giving me issues;  When I reindexed, I got a bunch of "unknown element transliterate" errors.  Just for kicks, I removed the transliterate elements from the icu.xml file, leaving just the transforms, and it finished, but nothing whatever is searchable.
13:57 jdavidb I suspect I missed something *real* obvious.
14:00 jdavidb Ever seen that happen before?
14:00 gmcharlt chris_n: pushed
14:01 chris_n gmcharlt: one other question
14:01 chris_n this commit: http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gi[…]9fd8dac785831af66
14:01 chris_n only has part of the patch I submitted
14:01 hdl_laptop never.
14:02 chris_n gmcharlt: see http://www.mail-archive.com/ko[…]org/msg04094.html
14:02 jdavidb Dern.  The whole thing seems like such a good idea, if I could just make it work!
14:02 hdl_laptop jdavidb: have you cheched the encoding of your icu chain file ?
14:02 hdl_laptop It truly IS.
14:04 jdavidb With the transliterate elements removed, it doesn't have anything controversial in it.  I suspect that the encoding was screwy on some of the transliterate rules, which might have caused the error.  But with them gone...is all easy ascii chars.
14:04 gmcharlt chris_n: result of a merge of other work on updatedatabase.pl, I expect - 068 has been an utter mare's nest for some reason
14:05 chris_n so shall I reformat and resubmit?
14:05 chris_n the syntax is incorrect
14:05 gmcharlt yes, but please check with hdl_laptop and Colin - we need to stop patch-fighting on that update
14:05 chris_n will do
14:06 hdl_laptop chris_n: hands off for me
14:06 jdavidb the file sizes in zebradb/biblios/register are large, which makes me think it put *something* in there, but just can't get it back out again.
14:07 chris_n Colin: how about you?
14:08 hdl_laptop jdavidb: what does zebraidx tells you ?
14:09 Colin chris_n: Just took a look.. I think some of the add columns are in other upgrades. I'm sure we took some out because it caused a failure and
14:09 jdavidb When it's doing the reindexing?  Nothing unusual there; looks like any other indexing I've done.
14:09 Colin the column that should be added wasn't
14:11 hdl_laptop mmm... maybe you have not reset your base between no icu and use of icu...
14:11 tekonivel left #koha
14:12 jdavidb hdl_laptop: When I use yaz-client to search, It shows that it worked fine, but returned no records.
14:13 jdavidb I made the changes to the default.idx file that are in your patch...is there something else that needs doing?
14:13 schuster joined #koha
14:14 chris_n Colin: ahh, I see... tnx
14:15 Colin chris_n: I think db update 65 and 68 duplicated some steps
14:17 jdavidb zebraidx -V returns "Using ICU" at the end of its' output (we're on 2.0.34, Debian Etch, and yaz-icu package is installed.)
14:17 tekonivel joined #koha
14:20 chris_n Colin: ok, it appears that the confusion on my end was isolated to one topic branch
14:20 chris_n tnx
14:24 owen gmcharlt: Can you clarify for me? Is there anything special we should do with our commits for 3.2?
14:24 gmcharlt owen: no, patch against head, just don't expect enhancements to be applied to HEAD
14:24 gmcharlt just bugfixes
14:25 owen Sure
14:25 gmcharlt once the dust settles in a day or two, chris and I will work out something for handling enh patches destined for 3.4
14:26 owen "error: Untracked working tree file 'koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/im​g/itemtypeimg/sfdicons/Book.png' would be overwritten by merge. could not detach HEAD"
14:26 owen Got that when trying to rebase
14:27 gmcharlt owen: if you had installed a preview of that icon set, remove it first, then try rebasing
14:28 * owen didn't think he had
14:29 owen But there they were. Okay.
14:32 hdl_laptop jdavidb nothing more
14:33 * jdavidb shrugs.  I'm not seeing any errors in the logs...just not getting any results.  happily returning zero records, every time.
14:35 hdl_laptop quite strange
14:35 hdl_laptop what is your icu chain now ?
14:37 jdavidb <icu_chain locale="en">
14:38 jdavidb <transform rule="[:Control:] Any-Remove"/>
14:38 jdavidb <tokenize rule="l"/>
14:38 jdavidb <transform rule="[[:WhiteSpace:][:Punctuation:]] Remove"/>
14:38 jdavidb <transform rule="NFD"/>
14:38 jdavidb <transform rule="[:Nonspacing Mark:] Remove"/>
14:38 jdavidb <transform rule="NFC"/>
14:38 jdavidb <display/>
14:38 jdavidb <casemap rule="l"/>
14:38 jdavidb </icu_chain>
14:38 jdavidb itty bitty chain.
14:41 hdl_laptop looks ok
14:44 jdavidb I've restarted zebra for this instance, but there are other instances running on the same server.
14:48 hilongo hello everybody ... :)
14:48 nengard Is there a way to trick the system into thinking it's an older version so that it will run some db updates that I somehow missed?   I don't want to wipe my db and start over (losing all my content) - but none of the patron card things work cause I missed some db updates apparently - and who knows what else I missed
14:49 kf you could change your version number setting in sys prefs - but not sure if this is a good idea
14:49 kf dentist appointment now... bye all!
14:50 kf left #koha
14:52 nengard anyone else with a tip I'm missing?
14:52 Colin nengard: If you know what the missing change is you can get the sql from updatedatabase.pl and apply it directly in mysql
14:53 hdl_laptop nengard: you can trick that
14:53 ebegin joined #koha
14:53 nengard Colin - tried that didn't work ... not sure why
14:53 hdl_laptop set version in systempreferences to 3.0100000
14:53 nengard hdl_laptop with the new sys prefs interface is that info still in the db?
14:53 owen nengard: You'll have to manually go to the old system preferences page
14:54 owen admin/systempreferences.pl
14:54 nengard owen i can do it with mysql
14:54 owen It's still there
14:54 nengard ah
14:54 nengard cool
14:54 Colin nengard: do a backup first
14:55 hdl_laptop Colin++
14:55 * owen heads down to the dungeon to talk to our cataloger
14:55 Colin nothing ever goes wrong on backed up systems
14:56 nengard bleh - okay everything works - but patron cards still don't
14:56 nengard so i'm out of ideas here
14:56 nengard chris_n anything?
14:57 nengard I did get this error ---
14:57 nengard http://koha.pastebin.com/m2f69a495
14:57 nengard looks like 106 is being skipped
14:57 nengard is that the patron card db updates
14:58 Nate left #koha
15:00 hilongo I'm having some problems with holds in 3.1.5 looping forever whrn called from staff interface... I saw in the mailing list that request.pl is fixed in git repo ... how can I get a copy of that file without installing git??
15:01 gmcharlt hilongo: you can go to http://git.koha.org, navigate to the proper file (in the 3.0.x branch), and download it (the blbo link for th efile)
15:02 slef Colin: I've just spent an hour sifting backups for corrupted files.
15:02 slef as in, backup copies of them.
15:02 slef hi all
15:02 slef I could have done without this today.
15:03 slef How's it going for anyone else?
15:04 gmcharlt passable
15:07 chris_n nengard: om
15:07 * chris_n is overrun atm :-P
15:07 gmcharlt wheeee - 3.2-alpha tarball with all translations expanded coming in at 235M
15:08 nengard chris_n no prob-  just want you to know I still don't know why I can't access it or get the DB to update - and that's why it's not documented ... but then again I still need help learniing how to use it before documenting it anyway :)
15:10 slef gmcharlt: can we cut it up somehow, or generate translations from Makefile*?
15:10 gmcharlt slef: yes - I think I'm going to release two tarballs - one with no translations expanded, and the traditional full one
15:10 gmcharlt but ask people to prefer downloading the former
15:11 slef make LANG=en:fr:... install # would be pretty cool, but I don't know if we can
15:12 gmcharlt slef: shouldn't be too hard to do - good thing to try to add for the beta

15:14 chris_n nearly all better... just awaiting the new nail to grow out and all of the feeling to return
15:14 jwagner That's good.
15:14 chris_n it all started with pianohacker's finger getting broken
15:14 chris_n :-)
15:15 jwagner It's catching???
15:15 chris_n look out! ;-)
15:15 * jwagner tucks hands into pockets....
15:16 * chris_n looks at nengard's paste
15:17 chris_n nengard: are you running the latest version? ie the alpha?
15:18 nengard yes
15:19 nengard and that was me trying to upgrade my db - the paste
15:19 chris_n hmmm... it appears those version numbers don't jive with the current updatedatabase.pl
15:19 nengard after running that I still can't access the patron card pages I mentioned yesterday - but then again if version 106 is the patron card db updates - that's why - my install skipped them
15:19 nengard what???? how is that possible???
15:19 nengard I fetched this morning
15:20 chris_n om
15:20 nengard :(
15:20 chris_n your ok
15:22 chris_n ok, it is the USING BTREE issue which hdl_laptop caught and patched
15:22 chris_n for some reason it appears to still exist in your repo
15:22 nengard hmmm
15:23 nengard i feel like i should wipe and start all over again :(
15:23 chris_n http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gi[…]8ce2c385aeab99c4b
15:23 chris_n nengard: try this
15:23 chris_n git checkout master
15:23 slef LLEK - it's like Koha, but with your sysadmin's fingers broken?
15:23 chris_n then fetch and rebase the master
15:23 * nengard laughing at slef
15:24 chris_n then git checkout -b pcardstest
15:24 chris_n and try running the installer/data/mysql/patroncards_upgrade.pl script form the cli

15:25 nengard 'form the cli'?
15:25 gmcharlt from the command line

15:30 gmcharlt hi folks - munin will be going away for 15-30 minutes while I upgrade my VPS
15:30 schuster has anyone seen this?  Has anyone developed for the iphone???  http://dclibrarylabs.org/projects/iphone/
15:30 schuster It is released as creative commons code.
15:31 slef schuster: we've developed some webapps for iphone but not a koha.  Is that an app or a webapp?
15:31 owen Must be an app, they link to the App store
15:31 munin left #koha
15:32 slef schuster: it's a Noncommercial licence, which is non-FOSS and largely anti-cooperative
15:32 slef owen: I'm not up with the rules of apps and App store. :)
15:32 hilongo Bye munin ... see you soon!  :)
15:33 owen slef: If it's on the App Store, then they must have submitted it to Apple and gotten Apple's approval. That's a big reason for not choosing to go the app route.
15:35 schuster You can download the DCPL iPhone code which is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 United States License, but largely unsupported.
15:36 schuster slef - iphone app new version 1-30-10
15:39 owen nengard: Are you trying a manual merge?
15:44 nengard owen - working with chris_n found the problem and submitting a patch shortly
15:44 nengard :)
15:45 owen nengard I've got a question for you when you finish, and I'm sure I'll remember what it is by then.
15:45 nengard LOL
15:52 nengard okay - got a question - i have this error: "Can't locate Graphics/Magick.pm"  but I thought I installed that module yesterday - can someone tell me where to get that module? chris_n said I can't do cpan - so I did apt-get install
15:53 wizzyrea nengard: did you get in ok?
15:53 nengard yes
15:53 wizzyrea sweet
15:53 nengard emailed you to say so :)
15:53 wizzyrea sorry to hijack your theme lol
15:53 nengard added the newsletter
15:53 wizzyrea nengard++
15:54 chris_n nengard: install libgraphics-magick-perl also
15:55 nengard chris_n doing now - but also reopened bug since the module isnt' listed as required on the about page
15:55 chris_n that is the perl interface for the Graphics Magick stuff
15:55 chris_n k
15:56 nengard chris_n - still getting a 500 error :(
15:56 chris_n I probably need to add some lines to the Makefile to alert the installer
15:56 jdavidb RT @ranginui (chris):  admitted to hospital operating in the morning
15:57 chris_n ?
15:57 jdavidb wizzyrea and I both apparently just spotted it on twitter that chris is in the hospital.
15:57 chris_n nengard: was the last install successful?
15:58 nengard i sent you the error i got in a PM
15:58 nengard didn't want to have a big paste here
15:58 chris_n np... was that before or after the 500 error
15:59 nengard i got the 500 error before installing and then again after installing
15:59 nengard jdavidb - oh no!!!! not more info??
15:59 jdavidb I seem to remember....'sec, nengard.
16:00 owen chris pointed to this link: http://www.massgeneral.org/chi[…]es/aa_quinsy.aspx
16:00 owen Which sounds like it's not too serious.
16:01 gmcharlt here's hoping
16:01 nengard owen - that's good - except that chris is an adult not an teen....
16:01 nengard a teen
16:01 jwagner Any kind of infection requiring surgery is serious :-(  Fingers and toes crossed....
16:01 jdavidb I seem to recall him saying that his doctor was impressed at how swollen his tonsils were a day or two ago, but I can't find that in the logs.
16:02 gmcharlt he tweeted that as well
16:03 gmcharlt http://twitter.com/ranginui/status/8579869999
16:03 jdavidb gmcharlt++  ; good find!
16:03 nengard i follow way too many people on twitter - i miss too much coming from my friends :(
16:03 gmcharlt besides, he doesn't get to run away from being 3.4 RM that easily ;)
16:03 nengard LOL
16:04 jwagner gmcharlt, it was the 3.2 alpha release that did it!
16:04 slef I didn't realise it was chris
16:04 slef I thought it was his child
16:04 jwagner He's been sick for a week or so, complaining about a sore throat.
16:05 hilongo Another question on reserves ... I got it working... but now, if I want to place a hold on a chequed out item Koha tells me that I cannot do that, because there are no copies available ... ??  any idea about this?
16:05 owen hilongo: do you have circulation rules set up?
16:05 slef hilongo: can't you place one on "Next Available"?
16:12 owen Sorry hilongo I'm not sure what to suggest if you've got circulation rules set up already. I don't have an installation of 3.0.5 to test on

16:22 nengard hehe
16:22 jwagner gmcharlt, not necessary, we'll harrumph for any/no reason.
16:23 jwagner Besides, 6-8 inches of new snow on top what was already there is enough of a reason for harrumphing.
16:23 jwagner I'm gonna have to go out & shovel a path to the garage soon....
16:23 jdavidb Having a near-perfect commute, while jwagner is stuck at home, is plenty of reason for me to harrrumph!
16:24 jwagner Harrumph!
16:24 jwagner On the other hand, I have a nice soundtrack to the day, which isn't feasible at work.
16:27 jdavidb hm...soundtrack.  (wish I hadn't left my iPod at home today..)
16:29 sekjal if I do a full zebra rebuild, does searching in the system go down for that time, or will the old index still be used until the new one is complete?
16:33 jwagner sekjal, the catalog will not be searchable until the reindex is complete.
16:34 sekjal jwagner:  thanks!  thought that might be the case.  I guess I'll wait until overnight to run it, then
16:34 schuster gmcharlt - are sounds in circulation still part of 3.2?

16:37 schuster schuster goes off grumbling to sit in a corner and stew
16:37 owen All the patches I saw were flawed in some way, partly because audio handling in browsers is so poor
16:37 * owen has some hope for HTML5
16:37 * jdavidb hands schuster a box of crackers, to go with his stew.
16:43 nengard didn't someone get sounds working on their system - thought i read that somewhere
16:44 owen Yes, and he had a public git repo for the work, but didn't prepare a patch that worked with HEAD I think
16:44 wizzyrea i know there's stuff on bugzilla about it

16:45 wizzyrea maybe
16:45 wizzyrea NEKLS is interested in sounds too
16:45 wizzyrea though, they only work if they actually have a bearing on something actually happening
16:46 owen wizzyrea: You mean a continuous loud techno soundtrack isn't the sound you were interested in?
16:46 wizzyrea well, I might be for that... I was thinking of schuster's problem where things appear to get checked in but don't actually get the status changed >.>
16:47 wizzyrea where if you put the ding in the wrong place, it might be meaningless
16:47 owen From mhafen: "These patches probably won't apply against the current code base, but I've got a git repo where they are current:  git://development.washk12.org/koha on the WCSD branch."
16:48 schuster Yes that was what I was thinking of owen - I may get my local guru to look at it to see if we can at least locally apply it after 3.2.

16:54 nengard head is spinning from the acq budget naming emails!!
16:54 jwagner What about a new approach?  Spend::Lots::Money??
16:55 nengard LOL
16:55 nengard do not add to the confusion!! :)
16:55 jwagner But then you could have variants for Some, Little, No money!
16:58 cait :)
16:58 wizzyrea for god's sake don't fork and have Spend::Obscene::Amounts::Money
16:58 jwagner How about a fork that says Give::jwagner::Lots::Money?
16:58 nengard Okay we have Source Budget, Main Budget, Budget Period --- any preferences/complaints/confusions?
16:58 nengard which one should it be for the top most budget?
16:58 wizzyrea lol STAY ON TARGET
16:59 * jwagner thinks that IS my target :-)
16:59 nengard i tried ... time for a nap :0 hehehe
17:00 owen nengard: FWIW I prefer Source Budget of those options, but we don't even use acquisitions :P
17:00 nengard I like Source Budget too - like the source of the money - but the complaint in the email list is it sounds like developereese
17:01 rhcl wizzy: do (have you) use(d) any particular registrar for domain names you could recommend (over godaddy)?
17:01 nengard rhc1 why not godaddy?
17:01 owen I love that nobody knows what this stuff should be called.
17:02 wizzyrea NEKLS usually goes through directnic
17:02 wizzyrea but it's mostly historical
17:02 wizzyrea i actually like the godaddy DNS controls
17:02 wizzyrea having them host the records is a breeze
17:02 wizzyrea imo
17:02 rhcl godaddy = annoyance factor (email, trying to sell hosting services)
17:02 wizzyrea yea, you do have to fight through a lot of cruft
17:03 wizzyrea a lot of libraries use network solutions
17:03 wizzyrea their controls aren't bad either
17:03 * wizzyrea has poked around in a lot of registrars, thanks to KLOW
17:03 fredericd joined #koha
17:04 fredericd hello
17:04 slef network solutions were a pain to transfer away from last time we tried
17:04 slef software.coop resells gandi.net who also fund debian and others
17:04 Sharon SQL question - if want a count of the number of holds on a title, what table and field would that be in?  I should know this, but can't remember.
17:04 slef bbl
17:05 sekjal what about "incoming budget" or "incoming funds"?  that indicates that it's top-level, and (I think) sounds more user-centric
17:05 wizzyrea ooh, I like that
17:06 wizzyrea Total Moolah
17:06 jwagner Sharon, reserves?  group by biblio number (join to biblio if you want the title itself)
17:06 wizzyrea Available Funds?
17:06 wizzyrea (the word funds looks strange to me today)
17:07 sekjal so, perhaps the hierarchy could be - (adjective) funds::budgets::allocations ?
17:08 owen (adjective) funds::budgets::budget lines ?
17:08 nengard owen i like that
17:08 nengard that makes logical sense to me - i can see it graphically
17:08 gmcharlt -1 to allocations, which are more commonly used to describe influxes of money into a fund
17:09 sekjal ah, good point, gmcharlt
17:09 sekjal budget lines are good
17:09 gmcharlt one thing - I'
17:09 gmcharlt is there anything that actually preventrs one from having more than three levels of funds?
17:10 gmcharlt if a library wants to do library system budget::branch fund::branch juvenile fund::branch YA graphic novels, for example
17:10 jwagner is now known as jwagner_shoveli
17:10 sekjal my understanding is it's arbitrary.  once you have a root budget, you can subdivide it any way you like
17:10 gmcharlt maybe just saying budget::fund::fund::fund with the explanation that a fund can have a parent would be sufficient
17:11 nengard the language i see on the pages now is Root Budget::Budget:: Sub budget -- we need to replace those bits of language - but i do like budget::fund::fund .. .etc
17:14 nengard so - the question is can i rename sub budget to fund and budget to fund and root budget to budget?
17:14 nengard are you confused yet?
17:14 paul_p left #koha
17:17 gmcharlt nengard: 'sub budget' isn't a distinct concept as such, so just renaming the links to 'Child Fund' or 'Subsidary Fund' or the like wouldn't affect functionality
17:17 sekjal I think have just two entities, the budget (which is set by some kind of external funding source like the Board of Trustees) and a fund (which is a chunk of that money that the library sets aside for something specific)
17:17 gmcharlt so yeah, Root Budget => Budget ; Budget => Fund ; 'Sub-Budget' to language about creating child funds
17:17 gmcharlt shouldn't break anything
17:18 gmcharlt and changing the fund list to a tree control or something would make hierarchical arrangements more clear
17:18 gmcharlt or just adding a parent fund/budget column to acqbudgets
17:19 owen gmcharlt: There is supposed to be a tree control but it's not working, IIRC
17:19 gmcharlt ok, so to summarize so far - Budget::Fund (and children Funds to the nth degree)
17:19 gmcharlt is everybody on #koha cool with that?
17:19 wizzyrea +1
17:20 wizzyrea makes sense to me
17:20 nengard okay  - so i change all occurences of Root Budget or Budget Period to Budget
17:20 nengard and then all occurences of Budget to Fund
17:20 owen Bug 4000
17:20 munin Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/b[…]w_bug.cgi?id=4000 normal, P5, ---, nahuel.angelinetti@biblibre.com, NEW, Budgets table doesn't show tree view for sub-budgets
17:20 nengard and the one place it read 'sub-budget' i call it 'child fund' ?
17:21 nengard I do like the idea - just confirming that i understand right
17:21 gmcharlt +1
17:22 nengard okay - i will tackle this as soon as i'm learning about the new patron card creator
17:22 nengard i believe i already have a bug assigned to me for it

18:20 chris_n 'book bag' sounds much more relevant than 'cart'
18:21 * chris_n loves to see how others have customized their opac
18:22 chris_n and thought nengard's header was a nice addition
18:22 jdavidb cait:  undoing fuzzy had the biggest impact.  I'm getting results identical to kw=foo   when I just enter foo.  (which is not even *close* to the results that I get on the production instance for just entering "foo".
18:24 jwagner chris_n, I don't think it's made it into head yet, but I did a patch to create a syspref so sites could rename the Cart to whatever they want.  One of my sites calls it Saved Items.
18:24 chris_n very nice
18:24 * chris_n thinks of wal-mart when he sees the word 'cart' ;-)
18:26 jwagner I just wish it would be as easy to replace the shopping cart image.  I think there are two or three different versions of it; I couldn't track them all down.
18:26 * nengard trying to keep track of all of the occurences of budget, fund and root budget :)
18:26 cait jdavidb: so its working better now?
18:26 nengard might be the most files i've edited for one patch
18:27 jdavidb cait:  better.  not optimally, but that's progress.  Thanks a bunch!
18:27 cait jdavidb: no problem, I did not configure our installation for icu, so I m glad what I know helped a bit
18:30 owen chris_n: It was book bag before, but "Cart" was chosen for 3.0 because it was thought that users would understand the metaphor because of experience with e-commerce sites.
18:31 owen schuster: that opac example is running 2.x
18:31 * owen is perplexed by the .aspx extensions, wonders if they did that to match an existing site
18:34 * owen is looking forward to jwagner's patch so the issue can be moot
18:35 jwagner I sent it in quite a while back, don't know if it's in the new 3.2 version or not.
18:36 owen jwagner: Is your patch also attached to a bug report?
18:37 jwagner Bug 3719
18:37 munin Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/b[…]w_bug.cgi?id=3719 enhancement, PATCH-Sent, ---, jwagner@ptfs.com, ASSIGNED, Create syspref to allow sites to rename OPAC Cart
18:37 jdavidb jwagner++ , even though I'm having to install that patch on a bunch of systems...
18:37 jwagner I did three separate patches, but the third replaced the second.  You helped me with the js files, remember owen?
18:38 * owen doesn't seem to remember much these days, what with my sleep-patching and all
18:38 gmcharlt owen: sleep-patching is fine - makes you even more productive
18:38 jwagner Looks like I didn't attach the patches to the bug report -- want me too?
18:38 jwagner to even?
18:39 owen jwagner: You might also want to revise the patch now that the staff client has a cart too
18:39 * owen thinks it's a great practice to always attach your patch to the bug report
18:39 zspalding left #koha
18:39 jwagner There's a whole bunch of stuff that will need to be updated for the new version.  I'm hoping this one snuck in with all the other stuff so I don't have to do it :-)
18:40 owen I do see your submission on the patches list but I don't think it made it in
18:41 chris_n so is the 'b' in borrowers.b_* for "business" and if so, where is the "Alternate Contact" info stored?
18:41 owen I do notice that your original patch uses the deprecated tag-like TMPL syntax, "<TMPL_VAR NAME>" instead of <!-- TMPL_VAR NAME -->"
18:41 jwagner I've attached the two patch files to the bug report
18:41 chris_n and why is there no "Business contact" section on the edit borrowers screen?
18:42 owen chris_n I think it's "b" as in the main contact info is "a"
18:42 wizzyrea chris_n: fwiw, NEKLS hides all that stuff in favor or primary/alternate
18:42 wizzyrea using jquery :P
18:42 owen wizzyrea: I'd like to see a screenshot of that
18:43 wizzyrea http://screencast.com/t/OTgzMzk1NTA for example
18:43 * chris_n thinks the db schema could still use some cleanup
18:44 wizzyrea instead of home/work/mobile
18:44 owen I see wizzyrea, thanks
18:44 nengard I have submitted a follow up patch to bug 3854 -- i hope I got all of the places this needed to be changed.  If not, let me know or feel free to make edits of your own :)

18:49 jwagner owen, on the TMPL_VAR NAME calls, is that just in the js sections?
18:50 owen jwagner: I didn't look through the whole patch, it just caught my eye
18:50 jwagner I think I was copying some existing syntax, so if that was outdated....
18:51 owen We switched from <TMPL to <!-- TMPL because of the way the template processor works for translations
18:52 jwagner gmcharlt, what happens with patches that have already been submitted?  Do they stay in the queue? or need to be resubmitted?
18:52 gmcharlt they stay in the queue
18:53 jwagner Let me know if I should clean that one up now, or wait until after it's pushed.
18:54 gmcharlt well because of the <TMPL thing and the cart-in-staff interface, cleaning it up now would be nice
18:54 jwagner Hrmm.  The branch I did that on got corrupted. I might just try editing the patch files directly & resending.
18:55 jwagner That won't account for the staff side though -- that'll have to wait until I get a 3.2 updated system.
18:55 gmcharlt make that create a new branch, apply the patch to it, make a new commit, squash, then resubmit, and it would work better
18:55 gmcharlt literally editing the patch is not likely to be swallowed by Git all that well
18:55 * jwagner is sure jdavidb can manage that :-)
18:56 chris_n hehe
18:56 * jdavidb perks, seeing more work land in his lap.
18:56 jwagner heh heh heh
18:56 * jdavidb is gonna start charging jwagner when she does that.

19:10 chris_n so it appears that the borrower.b_* fields do not get populated during a patron import
19:10 chobbs That did it. And curse Mac OS X for not including dos2unix in the shell :)
19:12 * chris_n finds an incorrect case in his csv template
19:12 chris_n and remembers having to change the case of the 'B' in his template due to work on LEK which changes it to lower case
19:13 owen The truth comes out about LEK's enhancements ;)
19:15 chris_n there's more to be told to that story than there is time atm :-\
19:16 chris_n it does highlight a bug in or import_borrowers script: fields not imported should generate an error message passed back to the user

19:23 chris_n chobbs: great! However leaving one with the impression that their data imported successfully when in reality it did not is a problem
19:24 nengard gmcharlt weren't downloads going to be on koha-community? just wondering cause the links go to download.koha.org in your recent email
19:24 chris_n ie. if one of the columns was mistyped in your csv, the script will still tell you it imported 13115 patrons ok
19:24 gmcharlt nengard: that was only a fallback
19:24 nengard ah so you have access to dowload.koha.org? good!!
19:25 gmcharlt nope, but cfouts has been willing to stage the files

20:18 wizzyrea I was gonna say, owen, if you have suggestions about the site I'm happy to hear them :)
20:18 wizzyrea I'm feeling a bit stabbity about text-transform: uppercase
20:18 * owen would agree
20:19 wizzyrea OH OH then I'll fix it
20:19 wizzyrea it makes me feel unhappy
20:19 owen wizzyrea, I'm going to send you an alternative to that koha logo in the green box as soon as I have time. Tomorrow prob'ly
20:20 wizzyrea okies
20:20 wizzyrea I
20:20 wizzyrea am for that
20:25 wizzyrea owen: I was going to color match it to the header but I just hadn't gotten there
20:25 wizzyrea but I will wait for your no doubt much more artistic rendering tomorrow
20:28 owen Am I alone in seeing this kind of thing? http://zivotdesign.com/example[…]ority-problem.png
20:28 jwagner owen, what version?
20:29 owen 3.01.00.061
20:29 pianohacker joined #koha
20:29 pianohacker hello
20:29 jwagner roughly the same as our working one then.  We've seen it occasionally, and jdavidb has a script to clean it up.
20:29 jwagner The holds queue seems to get itself knotted up somehow.
20:30 owen jwagner: A script that runs nightly? We used to have one that we used when we hosted our own install of 2.x
20:30 jwagner No, he just runs it when we see a problem.  Check with him tomorrow for details.
20:30 wizzyrea bah I can't see your screenshot
20:30 wizzyrea we're really close to your version
20:31 jwagner The problem is that there are multiple holds all with a priority of 1, right?
20:31 wizzyrea I don't think we've seen that no
20:31 owen wizzyrea: Can't see my screenshot? Why?
20:31 wizzyrea it wouldn't load
20:31 wizzyrea but I finally got it
20:31 wizzyrea :)
20:31 wizzyrea lemme ask and get back to you
20:32 jwagner It's not always multiples of priority 1, we've seen multiples of priority 14 or whatever.
20:32 owen Our old script would clean up that kind of thing and undo any changes the staff had made to hold priorities
20:32 jwagner That sounds similar to what his does, but I don't know specifics.  I think it resets priorities based on the date/timestamp
20:32 owen Right, exactly.
20:33 wizzyrea my peeps tell me they haven't seen your problem.. you are indep branches?
20:33 wizzyrea or no?
20:33 jwagner The times we've seen it were not very long after a migration, trying to shoehorn alien hold data into Koha tables
20:33 owen No
20:34 jwagner Sometimes during normal ops, but rarely
20:34 owen jwagner: We have just migrated (although it was really more like an upgrade, no_vendor_lockin++ )
20:34 wizzyrea ohh, probably has something to do with your move maybe?
20:35 jwagner Possibly, although our migrations were from other systems entirely (Dynix, Horizon, etc.).  I'd think Koha-to-Koha would be a lot cleaner.
20:35 owen Could be, I thought it happened infrequently but persistently
20:35 jwagner I don't know that he's ever figured out what causes it.
20:36 gmcharlt random question - does anybody know who answers info@koha.org
20:37 * owen is going to guess "Nobody" :P
20:37 wizzyrea doh
20:39 owen jwagner: Here's an interesting data point: the "priority" number in the database for all those "1" priority holds looks like this: 141, 209, 210, 227, 235, 237
20:40 jwagner So do you have 230+ holds on that title?  Are these the "right" priority numbers?
20:40 paul_p joined #koha
20:41 owen No, they're randomly large numbers (should be 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37)
20:41 jwagner I dunno.  Talk to jdavidb, he's dug into the guts of that problem.  I just know the symptoms, & when we see them, we have him run his script.
20:42 owen I will, thanks
20:43 jwagner I haven't looked, is there a bugzilla report on this type of problem?  If not, there probably should be....
20:48 owen A strange example: http://koha.pastebin.com/mf0501
20:49 owen The entry with "421" priority has a reservedate "2009-12-18" but a timestamp "2010-02-03"
20:49 owen Manually re-ordered?
20:49 wizzyrea whoa
20:49 jwagner *blinks*
20:50 owen that might explain why there isn't an item with priority 1
20:51 jwagner Wonder if you could reproduce it -- take an existing OK title & manually reorder holds, then check the table values.
20:52 owen This one is just absurd: http://koha.pastebin.com/d3822211a
20:54 wizzyrea wtf seriously
20:54 jwagner What she said.
20:55 magnus left #koha
21:03 braedon_ this is not in any way koha specific, but has anyone come across an issue where mysql is started before networking on bootup, causing it to fail?
21:04 braedon_ debian, on a virtualbox vm(which i suspect may be part the problem - never had the issue before)
21:06 jwagner owen, I emailed jdavidb to read the logs, so he'll know what you're asking about tomorrow.
21:06 jwagner I'm gonna sign off now.  Got that long trip home, after all :-)  (Two seconds, that is)
21:07 jwagner left #koha
21:10 wizzyrea any reason why a library using no authorities would be unable to add something to 100$a?
21:10 owen wizzyrea: You double-checked the MARC framework?
21:10 wizzyrea hmm, what about it?
21:11 owen that it's not trying to link 100$a to an authorized value or something like that
21:11 Jo joined #koha
21:11 wizzyrea ty ty , will check
21:12 wizzyrea nope, not that
21:13 wizzyrea it's like, you can click in it, but you can't type anything
21:14 pianohacker wizzyrea: BiblioAddsAuthorities?
21:15 pianohacker It's a lovely syspref that is on by default for some reason
21:15 wizzyrea off :/
21:15 pianohacker Hrm
21:15 wizzyrea toggle it maybe and see if it helps?
21:15 wizzyrea you know turning it off and on again lol
21:16 wizzyrea nope, not that
21:18 owen left #koha
21:18 wizzyrea what triggers the little ellipsis? Authorities?
21:19 wizzyrea erm, would the Authority types preferences have something to do with it?
21:23 pianohacker Well, there's authorities and then there's authorized values
21:23 pianohacker Does the 100 $a field have a plugin assigned to it?
21:23 wizzyrea forgive my ignorance, where do I look for that
21:23 pianohacker In the subfields structure editor
21:23 wizzyrea (this is not the area I muck about in much)
21:24 pianohacker (your sanity thanks you)
21:24 wizzyrea http://pomona.nekls.org:8080/c[…]dmin/authtypes.pl
21:24 wizzyrea is that the right spot?
21:24 wizzyrea sorry, should have truncated that link
21:25 pianohacker Administration -> MARC Bibliographic Framework
21:26 pianohacker Then MARC Structure next to Default framework
21:26 pianohacker Then find the 100 tag, and click subfields next to it
21:26 pianohacker Then Edit Subfields
21:27 pianohacker Then $a, then display more constraints
21:28 pianohacker wizzyrea: Here's what mine looks like: http://www.ubuntu-pics.de/bild[…]on_001_4SnlSI.png
21:28 wizzyrea oh brilliant, the thesaurus was on
21:28 wizzyrea silly
21:28 pianohacker Well, I have a thesaurus too
21:28 pianohacker And I can type in the $a subfield
21:29 wizzyrea we turned it off, and now it seems to be working
21:29 pianohacker Huh.
21:29 pianohacker What version are you marooned in?
21:29 wizzyrea this one is ooold
21:29 wizzyrea 3.01.00.041
21:30 pianohacker (also, just discovered that the password for bywater's demo is bywater/bywater, rather than demo/demo)
21:30 wizzyrea it's a teeny library, it works for them and no reason particularly to update
21:30 wizzyrea ty ty will fix
21:30 wizzyrea done

21:42 pianohacker said painohacker
21:42 brendan thanks greatly
21:42 brendan heh
21:43 braedon_ can anyone explain what changing the marc framework of a book actually does(ie, from default to books)? does it drop any data? or just change how the marc record is viewed?
21:43 brendan speaking like yoda today I am
21:44 pianohacker braedon_: If a tag/subfield is present in one framework and not another, I think transferring it will drop that tag
21:45 braedon_ hmm, so no knowing anything about what fields are actually useful, doing so could be potentially bad
21:46 pianohacker I think the tag coverage of most of them is the same, but...
21:47 braedon_ probably all right to leave them as default for this installation i think
21:48 pianohacker If you're concerned, you can delete the example frameworks except for default, then duplicate some new ones from the default, and then change those
21:49 chobbs left #koha
21:49 braedon_ for future reference, would changing the frameworkcode field in the database have the same effect as editing the marc record and changing the dropdown? ie, when is the conversion from one framework to the other done?
21:50 pianohacker braedon_: Editing it in the database would change the way the record is displayed but not the content, but it would get dropped when you saved the record
21:51 braedon_ the problem with building one from the default, is that i wouldn't know what ones to change, and I don't think the librarian that will be using the system would either
21:52 pianohacker Hrm
21:53 pianohacker That might be a mailing list question, then, I'm not positive that all of the example frameworks cover the same tags
21:54 braedon_ Thinking about it, i will have to come up with something. if you leave it on default, whenever you save a marc record(well, for all the ones i have tried it on at least) there are a bunch of required fields that it wants you to add, as they aren't in the original record retrieved from z39.50 servers. If you switch it to books, it stops complaining
21:55 braedon_ i suppose i can look at the logs and find what it has dropped for a given record
21:55 pianohacker braedon_: Which specific subfields? You can turn that off, there's some weird and unnecessary defaults
21:56 pianohacker unfortunately, I must drop out and get some work done, adios
21:56 pianohacker left #koha
21:58 chris_n braedon_: I don't believe the changing the framework drops any data iirc
21:59 chris_n if the record had the tag and/or subfield it will still be there, just not displayed
21:59 braedon_ ok
21:59 braedon_ i'm having a look into one i changed to books, to see what it did
22:00 * chris_n has added/removed tags from frameworks often and noticed no data loss as a result
22:01 brendan gmcharlt++ #busy-man and I'm loving seeing all the gitosis messages
22:01 chris_n there are some things that you should not change unadvisedly, however, like mapping of marc fields to koha fields

22:09 Nate joined #koha
22:12 collum joined #koha
22:15 braedon_ ok, in the test i did, moving a random book from default to books, it deleted a 019 tag, and a 695
22:15 braedon_ it also added a 942
22:16 braedon_ time to work out what on earth they are :)
22:17 wizzyrea slef about?
22:19 toins left #koha
22:20 wizzyrea nm :)
22:21 braedon_ chris_n: it looks like whenever you save a marc record, it reformats it(obviously), and any tags that Koha doesn't know about, are not transferred over
22:21 braedon_ chris_n: the 019 and 695 tags don't appear in the default mark framework at all
22:24 chris_n braedon_: are you hiding or actually removing  the tags?
22:26 braedon_ not
22:27 braedon_ the original marc records are imported
22:27 braedon_ what i am then doing is moving them to the books framework, and saving
22:28 chris_n I missunderstood earlier... by change I meant hiding subfields rather than deleteing tags from the framework
22:28 braedon_ and also then to other frameworks, and back to books
22:29 braedon_ so should all tags in default be in the others? just some hidden?
22:30 chris_n I'll have to defer on that answer to gmcharlt or someone else more familiar with what goes on when certian tags are actually removed from the framework
22:31 braedon_ ok
22:31 bebbi joined #koha
22:31 chris_n I do know hiding/unhiding does not affect the tag/field in the record
22:31 braedon_ cool
22:32 gmcharlt right, but once the record passes through the Koha MARC editor, tags not represented in the framework can get stripped
22:32 gmcharlt (which doesn't actually seem all that good)
22:32 * chris_n agrees
22:32 braedon_ "not represented" - hidden or removed?
22:32 gmcharlt removed
22:32 braedon_ ok
22:33 chris_n then, I think the marc editor is on the slate to be revamped at some point iirc
22:33 braedon_ that seems to be what i found in the tests
22:33 joetho left #koha
22:33 chris_n I would think you'd like to keep all tags/fields of the original marc record intact
22:33 chris_n and use the framework as a sort of filter for editing/displaying
22:33 brendan wow really likes the URL name - librarypolice.com
22:34 bebbi left #koha

22:39 pianohacker brendan: Do you have an online preview of the new VOKAL icons?
22:45 braedon_ gmcharlt: does that apply for subfields? or just whole tags?
