03:56 chris hi bigbrovar what links are you talking about?
03:57 bigbrovar I meant the link to the latest release of koha the one here http://koha-community.org/koha-3-2-2/ seems to point to the previous stable release 3.2.1
03:58 chris ah, i see
03:58 bigbrovar chris: when I tried downloaded it offered to relace the previous 3.2.1 file I downloaded the last time so when I checked the source of the link I found it liked to 3.2.1
03:58 chris will fix that
03:58 bigbrovar probably a typo in the naming or link

11:43 magnus is now known as magnus_a
12:00 thd-away is now known as thd
12:04 thd hdl: I have added your excellent improvement to the Solr RFC ICU qualification about Zebra to the Zebra disadvantages.  Now it is under both the advantages as a qualification and disadvantages as a disadvantage.
12:04 hdl hi thd.
12:04 hdl thanks
12:05 thd hdl: If you have a moment, I would appreciate knowing what "homemade" is applied to Zebra usage of libicu or libicu itself.
12:06 hdl thd: it is applied to zebra usage of libicu.
12:06 hdl libicu itself is widely used.
12:06 hdl but its support in yaz is limited to frequent things.
12:07 hdl I can't remember if I said that position and completeness would not be supported with icu enabled...
12:07 thd hdl: Are you not also stating that icu4j is more widely used and tested than libicu in the world in general?
12:07 hdl But it is the fact.
12:08 thd hdl: Yes I tested position and completeness and reported the error messages returned.
12:08 hdl thd: if you understood that... Then it is a big misunderstanding.
12:08 hdl No I would not claim that.
12:08 druthb left #koha
12:08 hdl icu4j is afaik a wrapper for java of libicu.
12:09 thd hdl: :)
12:09 thd hdl: I misunstood greatly that part.
12:09 hdl So if icu4j is used... Then libicu is too ;)
12:10 hdl I have read rpn2solr.c and it looks supporting only basic RPN queries.
12:10 hdl rpn2solr (published by Indexdata)
12:11 thd hdl: Yes I report that as a deficiency or disadvantage.
12:12 thd hdl: That disadvantage also would make metasearching with Pazpar2 weak.
12:13 thd hdl: Pazpar2 uses CCL as the base query language which is a big limitation in itself.
12:13 hdl ccl is not normalized. And would be quite messy to setup.

13:35 owen Got patron search autocomplete working with jQueryUI: http://screencast.com/t/LsxNxqZCbuN
13:36 thd hooray owen
13:41 kf owen++
13:41 kf someone with a dev install around?
13:44 * jcamins has one, why?
13:46 kf ah, perhaps strange question
13:46 kf how do you update?
13:46 kf I wonder about the files in koha-dev
13:47 jcamins Generally I don't, but you can use Makefile.PL --prev-install=/path/to/install/log
13:47 jcamins (or whatever that argument is)
13:47 kf so you do a git pull and run the makefile?
13:47 jcamins Right.
13:48 jcamins Then make, make install
13:48 kf I wonder if there is a way to find out easily if running makefile makes sense
13:48 magnus_a isn't it "make upgrade"?
13:48 jcamins Hm.
13:48 jcamins magnus_a: yes.
13:48 magnus_a is now known as magnus
13:48 jcamins Sorry.
13:49 * jcamins hasn't had any caffeine yet today
13:49 * jcamins is just about to make breakfast, actually.
13:49 magnus kf: do you mean find out if you need to run makefile + make, because files that affect koha-dev were changed?
13:49 kf right
13:49 magnus good question
13:50 kf because we have some customizations in there
13:50 magnus i guess you'd have to check what files have been changed...
13:50 magnus yeah, better be careful about those customizations...
13:52 kf someone suggested having symlinks from koha-dev
13:52 kf so you change the files in the git controlled folder, commit them and can merge when you update

15:03 * owen attempts to tackle gmcharlt's overdue.pl autocomplete on patron attributes
15:04 kf overdue.pl autocomplete?
15:05 owen If you have defined custom patron attributes, you can filter on those attributes in circ/overdue.pl
15:05 owen An autocomplete pulls the possible values for those attributes
15:12 kf ah :)
15:24 owen gmcharlt around?
15:49 * owen figures it out
15:50 * owen pictures gmcharlt's super hearing picking up his plea from a faraway planet. He flies across the galaxy to answer the call, only to find the crisis averted.
15:51 * druthb wonders if owen thinks that gmcharlt is a superhero, or an alien.  ;-)
15:52 owen An alien superhero of course. Just like Superman.
15:52 druthb bingo!  (since I didn't use xor.)

16:16 gmcharlt good morning
16:17 * gmcharlt makes note to avoid packages containing kryptonite ;-P
16:18 owen gmcharlt: You need your own origin story and your own version of kryptonite
16:19 gmcharlt owen: indeed.  so what's up with overdue.pl?
16:19 owen I'm in the process of updating the autocomplete to use jQueryUI
16:19 gmcharlt cool
16:19 gmcharlt are you going to be doing this for all autocompletes?
16:20 owen I've already got the patron search autocomplete working
16:20 owen I don't know of any other instances
16:20 owen I was initially confused about how you were passing attrcode to ypattrodue-attr-search-authvalue.pl, but now I get it
16:21 gmcharlt I checked, looks like those are the only two
16:43 * owen looks around for a wall to bang his head against
16:58 Johnindy left #koha
16:59 owen A few knocks seems to have helped.
17:02 tcohen hi, the importa table stores z3950 retreived records, is it safe to clean it up?
17:02 Johnindy joined #koha
17:03 tcohen i meant import_records, too sensitive touchpad
17:08 gmcharlt tcohen: yes. it also stores batches of import records, so if you have batches that you want to revert in the future, clearing the table would make that impossible
17:08 gmcharlt that may not be a problem for you, of course
17:09 tcohen gmcharlt: exactly, thanks!
17:09 tcohen I didn't find in the wiki a section for "maintenance tasks"
17:09 tcohen it could be helpful for many
17:10 gmcharlt tcohen: indeed; open an enhancement bug
17:13 tcohen gmcharlt: ok, done
17:14 tcohen i've recently written on the wiki a procedure for installing multiple koha instances
17:14 tcohen i hope some1 corrects it :-D

22:28 chris ah yeah
22:28 chris im too speedy :)
22:28 cait there were only small issues with kohaversion, updatedatabase and opac/opac-userupdate.pl
22:28 cait no, you are ok
22:28 cait people are too slow testing :)
22:29 cait I forgot you had already pulled it - that's all
22:29 cait I asked magnus to test and wanted to check patches still apply
22:29 chris ah right
22:29 chris well if he tests that branch

23:09 chris heya pianohack
23:09 ibot i guess pianohack is pianohacker
23:09 pianohack Hi guys. Could I ask a bug-reporting question (especially to jcamins if he's around)?
23:10 chris im not sure he is, but he'll read back
23:10 pianohack Cool
23:11 pianohack On bugs like bug 5520, where I had an idea, reported it as a bug, then developed the patch in about the same hour, am I the one that marks it fixed, or is jcamins?
23:11 munin Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=5520 enhancement, PATCH-Sent, ---, pianohacker, REOPENED, No .packages file for Ubuntu Maverick
23:11 chris usually the person who reported, marks it resolved
23:11 pianohack Okay
23:11 chris even if thats the same person who fixed it :)
23:12 chris then the RM, will mark it closed upon release
23:12 chris (thats the theory anywya :-))
23:12 chris did you see you made it into the 3.2.2 stats?
23:13 pianohack So, if I may ask, what was the reasoning behind replacing "have an idea for something that might be useful, send in a patch" with "have an idea, report a bug, create a patch, send in the patch, attach the bug to bugzilla, wait for the patch to be pushed, mark your own idea as implemented the way you wanted it to be"?
23:13 chris with 128 changed lines :)
23:13 pianohack (3.2.2 stats is cool :)
23:13 chris having a bug number for 1
23:13 chris so that when someone looks at the commit in the future they can find more info about it
23:14 chris 2, using hte statuses
23:14 chris we mark the bug patch-sent, needs signoff
23:14 chris that gets it into http://koha-releasemanagement.branchable.com/
23:14 pianohack Ah, okay, to keep the QA managers, RM, etc in touch
23:14 chris into the top link there
23:15 pianohack That does make sense
23:15 chris so i can see, how many are waiting for qa, how many for me, (signed off) and how many for testers (pushed)
23:15 pianohack And I was going to ask, "why not just encourage people to write more descriptive commit messages?" but, well, nengard tried that at least twice with no effect
23:15 chris yeah its just so patches dont get lost
23:16 chris if its not attached to a bug, and i miss seeing it in the mail or whatever, or see it and think ill do that later
23:16 chris it could be months
23:16 chris until i find it again
23:16 pianohack Right
23:16 chris but if its attached to a bug and in a status ill see it each day when i check
23:17 pianohack I appreciate the QA process greatly, so I'm glad to do this :)
23:17 chris cool thanks
23:17 chris theres a ton of patches needing signoff if you ever get bored :)
23:17 chris 172 at last count
23:18 pianohack Some of those are also probably just old bugs that didn't get taken care of, no?
23:18 pianohack (I'm technically supposed to be doing bug wrangling, also)
23:18 chris you'd have to hope so :)
23:19 chris off topic, you still in miami?
23:19 pianohack Yes, actually
23:19 pianohack Went to the beach today
23:19 pianohack Got nicely broiled
23:19 pianohack Enjoying the crazy cuban family
23:19 pianohack How's your christmas holiday looking?
23:20 davi left #koha
23:21 chris much the same, beaches and broiling .. minus the cubans :)
23:21 pianohack Hehe

23:22 chris pretty nice day today
23:23 pianohack That actually is pretty nice
23:23 pianohack How's the pacific this time of year? Atlantic was a bit chilly
23:23 chris its pretty cold in wellington

23:23 chris nothing between us and antartica, so the water never really warms up
23:23 cait that is pretty cold...;)
23:24 pianohack @wunder Miami, FL
23:24 chris if you go up the coast a bit its not bad

23:24 pianohack cool
23:24 pianohack We actually have almost the same weather, but it's summer there :)
23:24 chris yeah, we get up round 24-28 in january
23:25 chris but thats about as hot as it gets here
23:25 pianohack Imagine antarctica probably has something to do with that too
23:26 chris altho we never get to 0 in winter (maybe with windchill we do)
23:26 chris so its just got a much lower variation
23:26 pianohack Heh, more than I can say of golden, CO
23:26 chris hehe
23:26 pianohack Seaside towns are nice that way, not a crazy amount of variation
23:27 pianohack Miami just varies from 60-100 degF, though
23:27 pianohack Not optimal
23:27 chris unless you are 70
23:27 pianohack 70 degF is perfect miami weather
23:27 chris and then its all 'its too darn cold' :)
23:27 pianohack Oh
23:27 pianohack Age
23:27 pianohack Yes, then it is :)
23:29 pianohack On a koha-related topic, should I mark a rel_3_2 bug RESOLVED if its been fixed in HEAD for a while?
23:29 pianohack Lots of rel_3_2 bugs that seem to be from before the release
23:29 chris i think thats a valid approach
23:30 pianohack cool
23:30 cait getting late here - good night all :)
23:30 pianohack Off to wrangle some bugs
23:30 pianohack 'gnite, cait
23:30 cait pianohack++
