06:17 eythian so liberty stores credits as negative values, debits as negative values, and things that aren't marked but are really credits as positive values. Good work.
06:20 cait ?
06:21 eythian migrating fines/charges from Liberty to Koha. Trying to understand the details of how liberty stores things.
06:21 eythian And it seems to have things that make no sense.
06:22 eythian About 50% of the time this means I haven't understood them right.
06:22 eythian The other 50% they really are crazy.
06:22 cait this is good, I thought it only made no sense to me :)
06:22 cait so perhaps I am really kind of awake
06:23 eythian I wouldn't count on it. I can feel the side effects of two injections kicking in.
06:23 eythian The kind of immune-system overdrive that leaves you feeling a bit tired and spacey.
06:23 cait ouch
06:24 eythian http://www.nbr.co.nz/article/e[…]op-three-ck-87657 <-- not a bad result
06:29 rangi :)
06:30 cait uh
06:30 cait we print out the sql twice above guided reports?
06:30 cait I don't want it there once
06:31 rangi twice?
06:31 cait yep
06:31 cait select firstname, surname from borrowers Total number of rows matching the (unlimited) query is 51. select firstname, surname from borrowers
06:32 rangi heh
06:32 cait doesn't make sense and an ugly print out
06:32 cait twice = wrong english?
06:33 rangi nope, id just never seen it twice
06:33 cait I was not aware of that either
06:34 cait I started to show a while back, but I am not sure we really need it there - I would prefer to not show the sql at all
06:34 cait not on the quided reports result page - we have a show sql link on the side before
06:34 rangi yeah
06:35 cait oh, it's only once... I accidently added my sql as note
06:35 rangi heh
06:35 * cait should perhaps sleep more
06:35 rangi :)
06:35 cait but still don#t want the sql there

07:50 hdl joined #koha
07:51 magnuse joined #koha
07:51 rangi yeah, theres gotta be some anti spam plugins for mediawiki
07:51 rangi the problem is its human beings doing it
07:52 rangi not machines
07:52 * magnuse was just thinking the same thing...
07:52 magnuse and kia ora!
07:52 rangi hiya magnuse
07:53 hdl hi
07:53 wahanui1 que tal, hdl
07:53 kf we could move back to dokuwiki... *hides*
07:53 rangi wouldnt stop it
07:53 * kf waves to magnus from under her desk
07:53 rangi we had spam on there too
07:54 rangi theres not a lot that stops humans
07:54 kf it's really hard to see real edits to the wiki now, with all the spam and spam fighting
07:55 rangi i think the only thing we could do is increase the autoblocking to a really long time
07:56 kf auto-blocking?
07:57 magnuse an extreme but efficient measure might be to disable account creation - force people to "apply" for editing rights...
07:57 rangi kf: when you block a user, it blocks that ipnumber from creating a new account
07:57 rangi it has been stopping lots

12:05 druthb o/
12:18 magnuse so if a library has internal notes in marc21 field 590 that they do not want to display in the opac, what is the best thing to do? Biblio::GetMarcNotes picks up all 500-fields
12:20 magnuse the marc data is being migrated from 2.2.9 to 3.2
12:25 sophie_m joined #koha
12:25 juan_xerc joined #koha
12:27 kf 590 is a local field
12:27 kf having a 9 in it
12:28 kf not sure there are such things as internal footnotes in marc21
12:28 kf ?
12:31 hdl joined #koha
12:32 magnuse me neither... the library have been using 590 for internal notes in 2.2.9, and want to keep those internal notes out of the opac somehow in 3.2 too...

12:36 Dig_library <wahanui1>
12:37 hdl Dig_library: ?
12:39 Dig_library i m using koha in my library comp, now i want to access the catalog from another client machine. what should i do?
12:39 Dig_library <hdl>
12:40 hdl you should either add the uri to your /etc/host
12:40 hdl Or use your bind service to point the catalog to your computer.
12:41 mtj Dig_library:  just use the same url
12:41 Dig_library cant access by using same url
12:42 mtj ask your library sys-admin then
12:42 mtj you probably have a network config issue
12:43 Dig_library i also tried to add the url in /etc/host but, cant enter anything
12:43 Dig_library may be
12:43 mtj you have a file permission problem too?
12:44 Dig_library ok
12:45 Dig_library the other thing is i want to upgrade the version of koha. how?
12:45 mtj use git , or download the tarball
12:46 mtj ps : use git ;)

13:42 sekjal morning, druthb!
13:42 sekjal morning, jcamins
13:42 * jcamins cautions everyone who is not druthb or sekjal to keep their distance - apparently there is a cold going around the office.
13:42 jcamins Morning.
14:17 schuster gets out the Lysol disinfectant...  don't come near me...
14:19 jcamins schuster: I hope you have an economy-sized bottle.
14:21 * jwagner thinks chicken soup is vastly overrated
14:21 jwagner Especially for horrible hacking coughs...
14:24 * druthb chuckles about a cold "going around" a virtual office.
14:24 jwagner It will spread all through #koha if you're not careful!  Practice sanitary typing!!!
14:26 jcamins That's why I warned you all.
14:26 Eru joined #koha
14:27 Eru hey guys.  Anyone know why I would get this error mesage whilst trying to update patron data? "Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Members.pm line 595.
14:27 Eru "
14:29 Eru I'v checked that line, and it appears to relate to the pwd. Upon input the pwd is not masked, which seems a bit strange, but I can't remember if it was when it was working
14:29 magnuse Eru: not sure i can help you, but which version of koha are you using?
14:30 Eru magnuse: I'm running 3.00.00.107
14:32 jcamins Eru: is that a typo? That's an incredibly old version.
14:32 marcelr left #koha
14:33 mtj 2.5 years old
14:33 mtj ive seen a lot older ;)
14:34 Eru woah, for real? We got the newest version when we installed it, and that was eighteen months ago, so that doesn't sound right
14:35 kf Eru: Koha is fast :)
14:35 kf current version is 3.2.5
14:35 Eru that's fast, for sure
14:35 Eru :)
14:35 jcamins Eru: 18 months ago the newest version should have been ~3.0.4, I think.
14:36 jcamins Regardless, one possibility for fixing the problem might be to upgrade.
14:36 Eru aight. anwyays, I guess an upgrade  could solve the issues, but we've made quite a few changes to that marc framework that I'd rather not have to make again
14:37 mtj http://git.kohaaloha.com/?p=ko[…]292a2f8d9f2b3a8b5
14:37 jcamins You wouldn't lose your changes if you upgraded.
14:37 mtj Wed, 6 Aug 2008
14:37 Eru cheers
14:38 Eru jcamins: You never know with upgrades
14:38 jcamins Eru: true.
14:38 jcamins That's why backups are a good idea.
14:38 mtj … and a test box
14:38 Eru agreed
14:39 Eru guess, worst case scenario I could roll back to 3.0.0.17 and load the backup
14:39 mtj but you will need an extra koha license for that :/
14:39 mtj just kidding! ;)
14:40 Eru haha
14:41 Eru upgrade it is, then
14:41 sekjal lots of great new features in Koha 3.2
14:41 sekjal I think upgrading is a win all around
14:42 Eru Agreed once more. bit sloppy to keep the same verison for such a long time :)
14:46 Eru but no idea of what could be causing the problem in the Members.pm file?
14:47 mtj pass...
14:47 mtj the cause is probably because you have a really old version :)
14:48 magnuse is now known as magnus_away
14:49 mtj im being cheeky,  but set up a test box on 3.2.5 and see if yr problem persists
14:49 Eru I'll do that. thanks
14:49 Eru it's just, I hate not knowing why things fail
14:50 mtj yep, me too
14:51 wizzyrea joined #koha
14:51 mtj but save your debugging till *after* you upgrade
14:51 Eru and as I can't find any error in the code nor any reason why the changes I've made should make it fail, I suddenly feel like tossing the server out the window.  Luckily it's located somewhare else
14:51 nengard joined #koha
14:51 mtj else you may be fixing a bug , thats already been sorted
14:52 wizzyrea odd, are permissions kept anywhere but in the borrowerflags?
14:52 mtj nope, afaik
14:52 wizzyrea well that's completely odd then
14:53 wizzyrea I have permissions set uniformly, but some flags aren't set
14:53 wizzyrea flags
14:53 * druthb has been seeing a lot of wizzyrea lately, but doesn't mind.
14:53 wizzyrea lm rephrase
14:53 wizzyrea I have the flags set uniformly, but some permissions aren't set
14:53 wizzyrea :D

16:06 wizzyrea for teaching me something *without even being present*
16:07 rhcl Is that like "sine qua non"?
16:07 nengard what was that?
16:07 wizzyrea it was a friendlier way to execute left joins
16:07 wizzyrea to use something a la
16:07 wizzyrea LEFT JOIN items USING (itemnumber)
16:07 * wizzyrea has always had a bit of a mental block regarding joins
16:08 wizzyrea it's elementary
16:08 wizzyrea and I'm exposing my ignorance by telling
16:08 * jcamins pictures wizzyrea with a Sherlock Holmes hat.
16:08 wizzyrea but oy, that helped me so much to understand
16:08 wizzyrea reports_library++
16:12 nengard wizzyrea thanks for also teaching me something!

17:52 * wizzyrea agrees
18:00 briceSanc ls
18:01 nengard have the bots stopped announcing rebuilds of the manual?
18:01 nengard I pusehd commits yesterday and today and never saw it here in the chanel
18:02 nengard not a big deal of course - just curious
18:02 schuster left #koha
18:27 gmcharlt quick poll - add a sort3 field to borrowers or enhance the statistics wizards to allow specifying extend patron attributes as column or row values?
18:28 wizzyrea what for?
18:28 wizzyrea what's the problem you want to solve?
18:28 * wizzyrea is a bit thick today
18:28 gmcharlt basically, library wants a third statistical category field; they already use sort1 and sort3 *and* extended patron attributes
18:30 wizzyrea hmm. allowing specifying in the wizards seems like a more universal solution. Maybe I don't understand.
18:31 sekjal enhance_the_wizard++
18:31 briceSanc left #koha
18:31 gmcharlt wizzyrea: I agree with you, but just wanted to be sure that I wasn't being overly obtuse in desiring the more general solution
18:32 * wizzyrea generally prefers using existing data than creating more
18:32 wizzyrea unless you really need to create more
18:36 rangi +1 to general

18:57 nengard gmcharlt I'm for using patron attributes instead of the sort fields
19:00 rangi I'm for using them as well as

19:18 rangi this looks good to me, and nicole has signed off
19:18 rangi but i dont understand the 006/008 rules enough to be totally sure
19:18 rangi jcamins: im looking at you
19:18 rangi if i merge and push, can you do a test shortly after :)
19:19 jcamins rangi: let me check if my test VMs are booting today...
19:19 rangi :)
19:20 jcamins Sure. :)
19:20 rangi cool 2 secs
19:21 rangi new/bug_3013
19:22 rangi if you check that out
19:22 rangi its master, plus the new patch
19:23 rangi lemme know if it works the way you think it should, and ill merge (no hurry really, just whenever you have time
19:23 rangi )
19:23 jcamins Sure thing.
19:24 nengard rangi, a cataloger already signed off :)
19:24 rangi yep, but i always like 2 sign offs, and mine isnt worth anything on this
19:24 rangi normally i at least have some understanding what the patch is trying to do :)
19:25 rangi so not replacing your signoff, replacing mine
19:26 * jcamins wonders where he could find a lot of entropy...
19:27 sekjal jcamins:  my office
19:27 jcamins sekjal: wanna feed it to a PRNG?
19:27 druthb my desktop, jcamins.
19:27 jcamins Excellent!
19:28 jcamins druthb: wait, you have a laptop... :P
19:28 druthb yes.  I'm talking the non-digital part of my desk...you know, that flat thing where you put papers and lunch and stuff.
19:29 jcamins I tried feeding that to my random number generator, but it didn't work. On the plus side, I found this great coffee holder. ;)
19:32 * wizzyrea imagines entropy in a desk made of a lap, giggles
19:32 collum left #koha
19:32 * jcamins wonders if maybe he should put his external keyboard on the floor and let his cat walk on it.
19:33 wizzyrea i'm reminded of the software that "detects cat-like typing" and wonder if "cat-like" typing is really random or if it's more predictable
19:33 jcamins Argh!
19:35 druthb "random" is an English-language token for "something we haven't figured out how to explain mathematically," in my usage.
19:36 * jcamins is fine with that, but being told "please enter entropy" every time you try to use SSH is really annoying.
19:37 sekjal select pixels' hex values from all over a PNG, then run them through SHA1 hash?
19:37 sekjal just keep providing lots of random pictures
19:39 jcamins sekjal: brilliant!
19:41 * druthb suggests getting an SSH client that doesn't make that request, instead.  Mine doesn't...
19:41 jcamins Normal people don't run out of entropy
19:42 jcamins :)
19:42 druthb I never suspected you were normal, jcamins, from the day I met you.  But mostly, that's a Good Thing.
19:48 gmcharlt problem with using cats as random number generators is if they they catch on, the perverse little creatures will start marching across your keyboard in perfect, non-entropic, lockstep
19:49 druthb I would suggest a teenager as an entropy source, but the costs are kinda high...and mine's pretty darn predictable, really.
19:50 * magnuse wonders if it is possible to "get at" the item level elements of the XML that is passed to MARC21slim2OPACResults.xsl - in MARC21slim2OPACResults.xsl?
19:52 gmcharlt magnuse: what do you mean?
19:52 gmcharlt it would just be a matter of modifying the XSLT
19:55 magnuse gmcharlt: yeah, but i cant for the life of me get it to work... i have tried all kinds of permutations of this: http://paste.koha-community.org/168
19:55 * magnuse is not very good at xslt...
19:56 gmcharlt magnuse: you need to tack on the items: namespace prefix
19:56 gmcharlt e.g., <xsl:for-each select="//items:item/" ...
19:59 nengard okay, 6 patches signed off and the count of patches that need sign off is down to 140 ... I need to take a nap now and recover from this sickiness

21:14 JesseM i know the Koha now does do digital archiving, but is that something that may happen in the future or already in the works??
21:15 JesseM so doesnt do digital archiving
21:16 jcamins JesseM: if you want some sort of digital repository function, you'd be better off using something specifically for that, like Kete.
21:16 cait JesseM: I think there is better software around for that task
21:16 cait like jcamis said
21:16 wizzyrea cataloging and linking to it: koha would be great at
21:16 cait jcamins even
21:17 rangi yeah i concur
21:17 wizzyrea but something else for actual storage and display, imo
21:17 cait jwagner: I see your name on that bug of mine - have you tested it? I am not sure why it didn't work for Nicole

21:20 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=5834 normal, PATCH-Sent, ---, katrin.fischer, ASSIGNED, Holds link missing when 942$c is not for loan
21:21 jwagner Oh, yes.  No, haven't tried it yet -- I cc'd myself because it ties in with similar problems I've seen.
21:21 rangi right meeting, bbiab
21:23 jwagner cait, I just passed the link to your bug report on to the developer who's been looking at related problems.
21:24 cait ok, thx
21:26 hdl cait: jwagner: When item is not for loan, it is not holdable. Therefore the link is not meant to appear.
21:27 cait hdl: the question is biblio level itype or item level itype
21:27 jwagner hdl, correct.  The problem we've seen is where there is no 942c and/or there are multiple items on the title (some of which are for loan and some aren't).
21:27 cait at the moment the link does not appear when your item level itypes are perfectly holdable
21:27 jwagner We need it to ignore the 942c altogether and just look at the item level itypes
21:28 cait jwagner: except when you are using biblio level itypes... although I know nobody who does
21:29 jwagner Is biblio-level itypes option one of the holdovers from the earlier Koha version?
21:29 jcamins cait: the ANS does.
21:30 cait jwagner: it's an existing option, yes. Not sure it's a holdover and  it's not deprecated
21:30 hdl jwagner: it is... But it also allows to have ccode and itemtype indexed at biblio level... Since there are electronic documents or journals... which often donot have items
21:31 cait my patch just adds a check for the sys pref and makes it ignore 942 when it's set to item_level_itypes
21:31 jwagner hdl, that makes sense.  I usually just create a dummy item for electronic titles.
21:40 sekjal it'd be really handy if Koha could recognize other types of holdings than physical (952), like electronic (856) and serials (853-5, 863-5), and treat accordingly
21:40 jwagner agreed
