what is the reason for the chanserv message on signin? |
00:47 |
|
jcamins_away |
What message? |
00:47 |
|
wahanui |
hmmm... message is a warning not an error. |
00:48 |
|

i get a PM from chanserv every time i sign in |
00:48 |

welcoming me to the koha board |

Ah. No idea. |

i just saw rangi get +o-ed by the same name |
00:49 |

so i was just curious |
01:02 |
|

This channel is managed by chanserv. |
01:02 |
|
jcamins_away |
That keeps the channel from popping out of existence if everyone disconnects. |
01:02 |
|
jcamins_away |
I think. |

libsysguy: ChanServ is part of OFTC's IRC Services (common on most IRC networks). It can be charged with a number of things, including the granting of channel operator status and the welcome message you received upon joining the channel. Someone with the proper credentials configured ChanServ to send that message, and to op rangi, etc. |

I just checked environment variables on our 3.6.3 system which is behind a proxy in firefox and IE, and my development VM in firefox and IE, and found that REMOTE_USER is not defined. |
03:40 |

Is REMOTE_USER ever defined, and how? |

off-topic a bit, but does anyone know of issues when using perl Socket in scripts run by apache? |
03:51 |
|
mtompset |
Sorry... no idea. |
03:53 |
|
chris_n |
it seems that a call to Socket via cgi consumes 99.9% of the quad-core cpu as well as 99.9% of available memory :-P |
03:53 |
|
chris_n |
not nice.... |
03:54 |
|
mtompset |
That makes no sense. |
03:55 |
|
mtompset |
What are you running Socket for? |
03:56 |

chris_n |
I've a script which acts as a client to connect to a port on a building automation system |

I'm working on a web interface for the script |

Leads me to believe that REMOTE_USER is only defined if there was .htaccess authentication on the directory. |
04:18 |
|
mtompset |
Koha doesn't use .htaccess authentication at all anymore, does it?! |

It would be better if wasn't a localized problem, and then you could help the rest of us too. ;) |
05:23 |
|
dcook |
We have two very similar functions in two separate modules, and we weren't populating a variable in one of them, which caused a total (but very unnoticeable) failure |
05:23 |
|
dcook |
Hehe |
05:23 |
|
dcook |
True! |
05:24 |
|
dcook |
It might be one I spin back to the community, but it would require some adjustments |
05:25 |
|
dcook |
Essentially, it puts a link in the search results. If there is just one link in the bib record, it replicates that. If there are multiple, it takes you into the record (and just acts like a pointer). |
05:26 |
|
dcook |
On top of that, we've added an onclick event to prompt users to log in, if the link is for a database requiring authentication |
05:26 |
|
dcook |
It looks like the idea is to use a single sign-on, although I don't think it's gotten that far yet.. |
05:27 |
|
dcook |
Hmm, yeah...just a note that further authentication is needed. |
05:27 |
|
* dcook |
shrugs |
05:28 |
|
dcook |
Probably not that useful |
05:28 |
|
mtompset |
And that is the maze I'm looking at right now, dcook... SSO, authentication, SAML 2.0 |
05:32 |
|
dcook |
Mmm, hence that earlier question about REMOTE_USER |
05:33 |
|
dcook |
I would love to know the answer to the whole auth situation |
05:33 |
|
dcook |
Mind you, I'm sure everyone would :p |

mtompset |
first, understand what is there. |
05:43 |
|
mtompset |
second, figure out how to either: |
05:43 |
|
mtompset |
1) rewrite the mess (which has been suggested to me several times) |
05:43 |
|
mtompset |
or |
05:43 |
|
mtompset |
2) hack in SAML 2.0 authentication. |
05:44 |
|
mtompset |
I'm at checkauth in C4::Auth... |
05:45 |
|
mtompset |
I've thought that we don't use .htaccess authentication, and the first if might not be necessary any more. |
05:45 |
|
mtompset |
I'm working at understanding CGI::Session. |
05:45 |
|
mtompset |
Slowly but surely, I'll understand this code. |
05:46 |
|
mtompset |
once understood, then I'll be in a position to understand what to do with respect to SAML 2.0 authentication. |
05:50 |
|
dcook |
Power to you! |
05:50 |
|
dcook |
The customization I just mentioned.. |
05:51 |
|
dcook |
We also set a system preference based on the base URL of the link in the record, so when you click the link for a specific website, you can get a pop-up telling you a username and password that you've stored in your syspref |
05:51 |
|
dcook |
Of course, this only works for storing 1 u/n and p/w, but it looks like how we're getting around actual remote authentication |
05:51 |
|
dcook |
Not a terrible solution for small special libraries |
05:51 |

05:53 |
|
mtompset |
'eh?' -- Why did you say 'eh?'? |
05:54 |
|
mtompset |
Seems like others are as well, and I suspect they'll succeed before I do, but at least I'll understand the mess. |
05:55 |
|
dcook |
Understanding is always good :) |
05:55 |

Understanding is necessary to make better changes. |

As for "eh", I'm Canadian :p |
05:56 |
|
dcook |
I'm pretty sure other people in the world say it as well, but it's a (semi-)stereotypical expression that we say from time to time. |
05:57 |
|
dcook |
It doesn't really mean anything. And it's not a question. The ? mark just denotes rising intonation when we're speaking |

I thought that was the consensus from what I read of last meetings logs. |
10:09 |

slef |
who's rm? polled the list? |
10:09 |

Did we even have a quorum last time? |

don't believe it has one |

#help someone poll the list about end of life for 3.4 |
10:10 |

thd |
Brooke, it is never necessary to formally kill a branch. Branches like standards die their own quiet death eventually. |
10:10 |
|
eythian |
I kinda thought that 3.4 would have dies when 3.8 came out. |
10:10 |
|
Brooke |
we don't have a formal quorum Owen, so it's a bit hard to count if we've got one. |
10:10 |
|
slef |
(sorry, slow web here) |
10:10 |
|
eythian |
thd: I think it's good too kill them, just to announce that people should be moving now. |
10:11 |
|
slef |
if anyone wants to fund 3.4 rm nd someone will workl on it, let them, else call it orphaned? |
10:11 |
|
paul_p |
I think Koha 3.4 is de-facto orphaned |
10:11 |
|
oleonard |
It should at least be known that there will be no more releases unless someone takes charge of it |
10:11 |
|
Brooke |
I'm pretty sure someone sent that out to listserv months back, lemme see if I can dig it up |
10:11 |
|
thd |
Exactly, orphans are merely orphaned. There is no need to try to kill them. |
10:11 |
|
eythian |
I'm of the opinion it'd be best to declare an end-of-life for things like that. |
10:12 |
|
slef |
paul_p: make it official, encourage more upgrades |
10:12 |
|
eythian |
thd: there is, or people don't know they're orphaned |
10:12 |
|
paul_p |
slef agreed |
10:12 |
|
thd |
We should announce an orphan but not a killing. |
10:12 |
|
thd |
Killing is unnecessary. |
10:13 |
|
thd |
... and mean. |
10:13 |
|
oleonard |
If no one has done it by then I'll send a message to the list in 3hrs. We can have the discussion there |

it causes jenkins to be unstable atm, but that's a not a "big" unstability, and there are some patches underway to fix it. |

this bug is mostly caused by the switch to hourly loan, and changes in date comparisons. |

paul_p++ and should that be a blocker for 3.10? |
10:35 |

paul_p |
I've started a thread on koha-devel about release process, a lot of discussion here, I think i'll continue the discussion soon. |

notes that is a reason why we're only upgrading to 3.6.7 next. |
10:35 |
|
paul_p |
slef = I strongly hope it will be before 3.10 !!! |
10:36 |
|
paul_p |
The pile of ENH waiting for a signoff is very large, and I wouldn't like to see all of them being signed-off & passing QA & pushed too close from the release. |
10:37 |
|
Brooke |
paul I have stuff for this under its proper topic. Don't let me forget :) |
10:37 |
|
paul_p |
that's the problem the thread still don't address |
10:38 |
|
paul_p |
saying 2 months before the release "I won't push any ENH" mean that the freeze will occur in august, 22, which is "tomorrow" |
10:38 |
|
paul_p |
I don't want to do that. |
10:38 |
|
paul_p |
OTOH, ppl seem not to be happy with the idea of saying .0 is a announced as beta |
10:38 |
|
paul_p |
is there a 3rd option ? which one ? |
10:38 |
|
paul_p |
that's my biggest point for 3.10 for now. |

another one = I had not a lot of feedback on my POC for thread "http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]oha_Namespace_RFC, moving ahead" |
10:40 |
|
mtompset |
So when is 3.10 tentatively coming out? |
10:40 |
|
paul_p |
mtompset = that's my personal debate atm ! |
10:41 |
|
paul_p |
either keep oct 22, say there will be a 2 months freeze for large enh, meaning everything must be in before aug, 22 |
10:41 |
|
paul_p |
or keep oct 22 as .0 release, but clearly announce it will be a beta |
10:41 |
|
paul_p |
or a 3rd option I don't see atm |
10:42 |
|
paul_p |
(4th option = change nothing, but I think it's not a good option !) |
10:42 |
|
slef |
paul_p: why 2mo freeze? could we shorten if lots pledge to test+fix a lot? |
10:42 |
|
slef |
paul_p: and can we be braver at reverting buggy enh? |
10:42 |
|
paul_p |
slef = it has been proven for 3.4 and 3.8 that it does not work well |
10:43 |
|
mtompset |
pledges don't mean anything. Don't count the chickens before they hatch. |
10:43 |

eythian_ joined #koha |
10:43 |

paul_p |
slef = it's hard to revert ENH, because they usually have DB updates |
10:43 |
|
Brooke |
we could do a 9 or 12 month release cycle #justsayin |
10:43 |
|
rangi |
worked for 3.6 though |
10:43 |
|
rangi |
longer cycle just shifts the problem |
10:43 |

paul_p |
hey, rangi is not sleeping ;-) |
10:43 |
|
paul_p |
I agree it just shifts the problem. |
10:44 |
|
slef |
paul_p: leave db update hope to reintro in x.1 or x.2, but revert code? |
10:44 |
|
mtompset |
that isn't always possible, slef. |
10:44 |
|
thd |
slef++ |
10:44 |

paul_p |
slef ... maybe ... i'll think a little bit more of this option... not sure |
10:44 |

rangi |
it is more often than not |
10:44 |
|
slef |
mtompset: no, not always |
10:44 |
|
slef |
mtompset: but 90% I suspect |
10:44 |
|
thd |
mtompset: When is it not possible to revert code? |
10:44 |

paul_p |
agreed with slef |
10:44 |
|
Brooke |
shifting the problems to the next release just shifts the problem. |
10:45 |

First option seems sensible to meet six month release cycle, and provide a stable release.. |
10:45 |
|
slef |
mtompset: this is release engineering not utopia |
10:45 |
|
mtompset |
timestamp vs. date (db change) |
10:45 |
|
slef |
thd: when someone built on it |
10:45 |
|
rangi |
ppl running from dev .. not from releases will be the only ones affected by db updates anyway |
10:46 |
|
thd |
slef: We need more independence between features to avoid building on untested code. |
10:46 |

3.6.0 had one month feature freeze |

Better to have fewer enhancements and a stable release, rather than a buggy release (for reputation as a great product, if nothing else) |

they are like every other client |

perhaps some of the enhancements should be chunked smaller than they are |
10:48 |

anyway, more list discussion? |
10:48 |

slef |
RAINING HARD HERE NOW |
10:48 |
|
rangi |
ive had huge media megacorps more patient than tiny libraries |
10:49 |
|
thd |
However, if enhancements run independently of other code for a period of time, then it would be easy to exclude them if they are discovered to actually be buggy even after passing QA. |
10:49 |
|
paul_p |
other option/idea = branch 3.10 earlier (in august), to let enhancements being pushed in master, while stabilizing the 3.10 . atm, during freeze, ENH continues to be submitted, but are not pushed anymore, which tend to have ENH pushed later (not sure i'm very clear ...) |
10:49 |
|
rangi |
you'd have to run that by the RM for 3.12 .. since once 3.10 is branched, master is hers/his |
10:49 |
|
slef |
sorry all, I must get indsooers... pls postpone kohacon12 for me? bbi10 |
10:50 |

paul_p |
rangi = right. I'll rise the idea on the mailing list |
10:50 |
|
rangi |
you could always push them to experimental or something, after the feature freeze |

Do things ever come out of experimental? |
10:52 |

i think given the currently instability of master |
10:52 |
|
rangi |
freezing sooner and bugfixing is the best plan |
10:52 |
|
eythian_ |
Branch an -rc? |
10:52 |
|
oleonard |
It doesn't make sense to seek to push more enhancements just for the sake of making the release "more different" |
10:53 |

thd |

10:53 |

I agree, oleonard |

10:53 |
|
rangi |
dpavlin: we are talkign feature freeze |
10:53 |
|
paul_p |
dpavlin = "critical" means it's not an ENH |
10:53 |
|
dpavlin |
ack |
10:53 |
|
rangi |
there is never a bugfix freeze |
10:54 |
|
rangi |
only feature and string |
10:54 |
|
rangi |
and string is soft |
10:54 |
|
rangi |
critical bug fixes that change strings usually get pushed anyway |
10:54 |
|
thd |
Making the release "more different" is only what should be done for releases which are not based on a calendar schedule. We are doing calendar schedule releases. |
10:55 |
|
Brooke |
thd that's the problem |
10:55 |
|
jcamins |
But if the fix can be done without changing strings, that's to be prefered after string freeze. |
10:55 |
|
rangi |
no its the solution |
10:55 |
|
Brooke |
there's no logical rotation between enhancement and bugfixing versions |
10:55 |
|
Brooke |
we try it all at once in 6 months and that's madness. |
10:55 |
|
rangi |
to the problem of doing not calendar releases and 3.5 year releases |
10:56 |
|
mtompset |
Actually, 6 months is a good length of time, because this means there are two bursts of fixes as releases are coming out. |
10:56 |
|
rangi |
i disagree its madness, i think there are areas of improvement |
10:56 |
|
paul_p |
I don't want to switch back to feature releases ! the 6 months seems a good periodicity. We must stick with it ! |
10:56 |

back |
10:57 |
|
oleonard |
Agreed, and that means sticking to an early feature freeze |
10:57 |
|
mtompset |
but does the feature freeze need to be 2 months? is 1 month enough? |
10:57 |
|
oleonard |
The enhancements can wait, but the bug fixes can't |
10:57 |
|
paul_p |
and I think that the early Feature Freeze goes with branching stable soon ! |
10:57 |
|
paul_p |
s/soon/early/ |
10:57 |
|
oleonard |
mtompset: That has not been the case historically |
10:58 |
|
Brooke |
we could rotate. we could have 6 months for bugfixing |
10:58 |
|
Brooke |
and 9 or 12 for enhancements |
10:58 |
|
rangi |
eeewww |
10:58 |
|
paul_p |
mtompset = anyway, i'll be in holiday from aug 4th to 26th, so the FF won't be on aug 22, because it would mean Aug 4th, that's too early ! |
10:58 |
|
thd |
I think that the six month releases allow incremental improvement and encourage much more care in commits to not break things for major changes. |
10:58 |
|
Brooke |
I think the sticking to the deadline bit is way more important than picking an insane deadline and fitting services to it |
10:58 |
|
oleonard |
Brooke, I don't think this is the time or place to propose changes to the release cycle |
10:59 |
|
paul_p |
maybe switch from april/oct releases to may/nov, and have feature freeze sept 22 ? |
10:59 |
|
Brooke |
when is Owen? I bring it up, and I'm nearly always patronised. |
10:59 |
|
oleonard |
It should be discussed as part of the process of choosing a new RM |
10:59 |
|
paul_p |
oleonard right |
10:59 |
|
jcamins |
What is the benefit of May/November? |
10:59 |
|
oleonard |
...not within the current release cycle |
11:00 |
|
paul_p |
jcamins = not feature freeze during summer holidays |
11:00 |
|
jcamins |
paul_p: ah. |
11:00 |
|
jcamins |
Got it. |
11:00 |
|
mtompset |
And this 6 month cycle, is it in stone, or flexible by a given amount of time? |
11:00 |
|
rangi |
hmm i would have thought holidays is perfect freeze time :) |
11:00 |
|
thd |
I have overcome my past objection to calendar releases with the commitment to continued bug fixes after release. |
11:00 |
|
paul_p |
mtompset = I would say nothing is in stone, but i'm strongly against changing it again ! |
11:01 |
|
rangi |
and course thats only the northern summer :) |
11:01 |

11:02 |

Some projects work poorly with calendar releases. Koha seems OK thus far. Some GNU/Linux distributions using calendar releases cannot be trusted to actually work in my experience. |
11:03 |
|
eythian_ |
Calendar releases also makes planning possible which is good. |
11:03 |
|
rangi |
thd: koha is a zillion times more stable now (even with the 3.8 bugs) than it was ever before |
11:03 |
|
rangi |
3.0.0 was a night mare |
11:03 |

nengard joined #koha |

and it took 3 years |
11:04 |
|
thd |
rangi: I am making that point of concurrence. |
11:04 |
|
Brooke |
note that I've never proposed 3 years, and that was from constantly moving goalposts instead of honestly assessing things |
11:04 |
|
Brooke |
I think it's just as bad to introduce a buggy as version just to hit 6 months |
11:04 |
|
mtompset |
So it seems we all want stability. |
11:05 |
|
rangi |
yep, so longer feature freeze it is |
11:05 |
|
oleonard |
Yes |
11:05 |
|
thd |
I had previously, objected based on projects which are so large that they can never have a feature freeze early enough to fix all bugs which should be blockers. |
11:05 |
|
paul_p |
Brooke = when 3.8 was released, everything had been tested and it was supposed to be OK. Except there was some side effect the QA process has not detected. |
11:05 |
|
rangi |
thd: thats what happens with longer cycles |
11:05 |
|
mtompset |
Actually, has anyone actually developed a test plan for every module in Koha? |
11:06 |
|
rangi |
the more you cram in, the more likely it is to break |
11:06 |

paul_p |
mtompset = I know bywater is working on that atm. |
11:06 |
|
rangi |
mtompset: we have 57% subroutine coverage |
11:06 |

paul_p |
mtompset = and the problem is that there are so many options/sysprefs ! |
11:06 |
|
rangi |
the most useful thing anyone can do for koha |
11:06 |

rangi |
is write more tests |
11:07 |

it trumps features |

I assume we have to shoot a man just to watch him die, eh? |
11:33 |

paul_p: so many votes, surely people only voted for something in first place if they intend to go .. 297 first place for reno |
11:33 |

(for KohaCon11, 600+ ppl voted for Mumbai. there were not 600 ppl attending, from far ;-) ) |

so let's do the bug signing off bit |
11:36 |
|
Brooke |
#topic Old Business - Bug Signoff |
11:36 |
|
|
Topic for #koha is now Old Business - Bug Signoff |
11:36 |
|
Brooke |
so |
11:36 |
|
Brooke |
I went to wikimania |
11:36 |
|
Brooke |
which was super cool and super cheap |
11:36 |
|
Brooke |
(trust me this is related) |
11:37 |
|
Brooke |
and the Wikihow folks |
11:37 |
|
Brooke |
had this dashboard |
11:37 |
|
Brooke |
that was totally intuitive |
11:37 |
|
Brooke |
and I remember magnus and chris doing some visualisation work |
11:37 |
|
Brooke |
and how successful just the red, yellow, and orange bits were |
11:37 |
|
Brooke |
so I think that if we cross breed the bug list |
11:37 |
|
Brooke |
with the wiki dashboard |
11:37 |
|
Brooke |
it will be the coolest thing evar |
11:38 |

you can clone it and send patches |
11:39 |
|
Brooke |
they have weather mapped theirs |
11:39 |

so that there are picture sections |
11:40 |

and for say article writing, there are a billion waiting, so it's a thunderstorm |
11:40 |

11:40 |

it's very clever for getting a really quick visual |
11:41 |
|
jcamins |
mtompset: actually, it's really simple. |
11:41 |

It's what rangi said to me regarding bug 5515. |
11:41 |
|
huginn |
Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=5515 major, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, NEW , Leading 'and' in search never returns a result |

11:42 |

Thankfully, I doubt it is like C4::Search. |
11:42 |

you're mad if you are tyring to fix C4::Search |
11:42 |

I will try and fish it up and post or link a pic someplace |

so the next thing on here is marking bugs that can be tested in the sandboxes |
11:45 |
|
Brooke |
I know there was just a sandbox improvement |
11:47 |
|
Brooke |
I don't see how a keyword would hurt |
11:47 |
|
Brooke |
does anyone else? |
11:47 |
|
Brooke |
if we authorise it, people should use it, yeah? |
11:47 |
|
rangi |
should != will |
11:48 |
|
Brooke |
nope. it's usually better the other way round |
11:48 |
|
Brooke |
authorised entries derived from the crowd |
11:48 |
|
Brooke |
but no matter |
11:48 |
|
Brooke |
any objections to keywords for bugzilla? |
11:48 |
|
paul_p |
not from me ;-) |
11:48 |
|
jcamins |
None from me. |
11:48 |
|
mtompset |
No, but how will people know the keyword(s)? |
11:49 |
|
davidnind |
not from me |
11:49 |
|
drojf1 |
you can see the keywords, somewhere. i know that there is only "regression" in it, so i must have found it somehow |
11:50 |
|
Brooke |
how about just using sandboxtest? |
11:50 |
|
thd |
Brooke: what do you mean in terms of the specific application of keywords? |
11:50 |
|
Brooke |
look at the agenda |
11:50 |
|
Brooke |
I'll quote it |
11:50 |
|
jcamins |
thd: adding a keyword so that people can find bugs that can be tested in the sandbox. |
11:50 |
|
Brooke |
Use a keyword in Bugzilla to mark bugs/patches that can be tested with the sandboxes |
11:51 |
|
mtompset |
Okay, next uninformed question... what sandboxes? |
11:51 |
|
Brooke |
so I'm thinking if we used sandboxtest that could differentiate stuff that can be tested and not get it mucked up with bugs with sandboxen or general tests, but am I right? |
11:51 |
|
Brooke |
sandboxen are things that let me test stuff without having to do a whole heap of git schtuff |
11:52 |
|
eythian |
mtompset: look through your email from today |
11:52 |

should say folks where I said me XD |

okay... |

11:53 |

thd |
jcamins: I what way do keywords differ from the existing categories for bugs in bugzilla? |
11:53 |
|
* rangi |
wanders off to sleep |
11:53 |
|
Brooke |
night |
11:53 |
|
jcamins |
thd: they cut across categories. |
11:53 |
|
jcamins |
This is not for bugs in the sandbox implementation, it's for bugs that can be tested in sandboxes. |
11:54 |
|
thd |
I am all in favour of more metadata for bibliographic materials and bugs. |
11:54 |
|
mtompset |
davidnind++ |
11:55 |
|
mtompset |
Why wouldn't all bugs be tested in the sandboxes? |
11:56 |
|
jcamins |
So, sandboxtest sounds good to me. What's next? |
11:56 |
|
jcamins |
mtompset: the sandboxes can't handle all types of modifications. |
11:56 |
|
drojf1 |
mtompset: it does not work for all |
11:56 |
|
mtompset |
Ah, okay. |
11:56 |
|
Brooke |
Put the names of testers/signoffers in the release notes (more status) |
11:56 |
|
Brooke |
by the way, thanks for everyone's patience |
11:56 |
|
Brooke |
this feels long because it is: we essentially skived off with no meeting last time. |
11:57 |
|
* libsysguy |
will have to catch up in the logs |
11:57 |
|
Brooke |
I think this one is cool as long as someone *wants* acknowledgement |
11:57 |
|
mtompset |
Isn't this related to jcamins suggestion of Sponsored-by? |
11:57 |
|
paul_p |
mtompset = sandboxes can't handle update database very well atm, and don't handle any zebra configuration change |
11:58 |
|
thd |
2 UTC is a problematic time for much of the current distribution of participants in Koha. |
11:58 |
|
jcamins |
Anyone who doesn't want acknowledgement can easily be removed from the release notes. |
11:58 |
|
jcamins |
mtompset: yes. It's all of a piece. :) |
11:58 |
|
eythian |
thd: that's why things rotate |
11:58 |
|
paul_p |
if someone want to improve them, he's welcomed, of course ;-) |
11:58 |
|
Brooke |
it's plum for Kiwis |
11:59 |

thd |
Even much of NZ was absent from the last meeting. |
11:59 |

but not always ... midnight now |
11:59 |

yeah, it's not a good time for kiwis |
12:00 |

eythian |
but next time may be better |
12:00 |
|
Brooke |
is 2 UTC bad for you all, too, then? |
12:00 |

12:01 |

Brooke |
someone said 2, so that's what I was talking about XD |
12:01 |
|
Brooke |
anyway |
12:01 |
|
thd |
Brooke, we should return to the topic for now but I once tried to show that much of 2 UTC lands in the largely unpopulated ocean. |
12:01 |
|
Brooke |
yes I think this is sort of related to the jcamins patch |
12:02 |
|
jcamins |
The idea is to make sure that the people and institutions who contribute to Koha are acknowledged. |
12:02 |
|

for NZ 2 UTC = 2pm, depends whether you have to work or not;-) |

eythian |
well, I work on koha, so...;) |
12:03 |

jcamins |
Doesn't sound like there's much discussion on that. Anyone who doesn't want their name in the release notes can easily ask for it to be removed. |
12:03 |

same thing would apply, methinks |
12:04 |

yes folks? |

apologizes, "Replying to work email at 8pm at night." |
12:05 |
|
Brooke |
this one is my fav cause I put it there, but I expect folks will hate it |
12:05 |
|
Brooke |
Offer prizes/bounties for signing off - either on individual bugs or for doing the most signoffs in a given time frame (Mechanical Turk?) |
12:06 |
|
Brooke |
I will offer Diablo or WoW gold if there's a dev that actually wants any of either :) |
12:06 |
|
jcamins |
Yes. |
12:06 |
|
jcamins |
+1 |
12:06 |
|
mtompset |
I like the idea, but where will the prizes come from? |
12:06 |
|
jcamins |
It can't just be for signing off. |
12:06 |
|
jcamins |
It has to be for testing. |
12:06 |
|
thd |
Aside from virtual gold, what prizes or bounties might anyone be prepared to offer? |
12:07 |
|
Brooke |
so do we conflate those, or do we separate and honour both? |
12:07 |
|
mtompset |
Can you sign off without testing, jcamins? |
12:07 |
|
eythian |
you_can_ |
12:07 |
|
Brooke |
one would _hope_ not |
12:07 |
|
eythian |
but you shouldn't |
12:07 |
|
thd |
Would offering prizes actually lead to the wrong motivation and poor quality control? |
12:08 |
|
paul_p |
thd that's a risk, you're right |
12:08 |
|
mtompset |
Actually.... |
12:08 |
|
mtompset |
that gives me an idea. |
12:08 |
|
* libsysguy |
prefers bribes of testing other devs |
12:08 |
|
mtompset |
We were talking about testing and www::mechanize earlier, right? |
12:08 |
|
mtompset |
What if as proof of the testing, they include a mechanize script? |
12:09 |
|
drojf1 |
how is that supposed to work? a price per bug? where do all the prizes come from? what if i am poor and cannot set a fancy prize for testing my patch? |
12:09 |
|
paul_p |
mtompset = you can't expect that from a librarian using sandbox... |
12:09 |
|
Brooke |
but you could get bonus points :) |
12:10 |
|
mtompset |
an apache log file of their testing page requests? |
12:10 |
|
jcamins |
drojf1: chocolate? |
12:10 |
|
wahanui |
reiveune ate them all |
12:10 |
|
reiveune |
lol |
12:10 |
|
eythian |
mtompset: now you're just adding difficulty so you can have proof |
12:11 |
|
jcamins |
Yeah, I don't think making it more difficult to test is the way to go. |
12:11 |
|
mtompset |
then how to deal with thd's valid concern of potentially poorer quality control? |
12:11 |
|
jcamins |
My point was, you can't say "here's a batch of fudge for whoever signs off on this patch," you have to say "here's a batch of fudge for whoever offers useful testing and feedback on this patch." |
12:11 |
|
eythian |
Even recognition of things like: most signoffs, most QA actions, most patches in the release might be a place to start |
12:12 |
|
jcamins |
Exactly. |
12:12 |
|
Brooke |
where it's wanted |
12:13 |
|
Brooke |
I just think we are up against a wall with testing, because I would wager that it's not fun for most people. |
12:13 |
|
mtompset |
like that bug which is haunting paul_p with the impending release of 3.10 looming in his mind. :) |
12:13 |
|
Brooke |
I don't think it's a Koha specific problem |
12:13 |
|
* mtompset |
nods in agreement. |
12:14 |
|
Brooke |
and I think if it bumps about in me head long enough, I might actually try and research (or more likely accidentally stumble on) what might work from elsewhere |
12:14 |
|
thd |
drojfi: Poor developers may still be developing features which many parties want including relatively wealthy libraries. |
12:14 |
|
eythian |
thd: or they might be developing something for a school in Africa... |
12:15 |
|
Brooke |
I like the idea of a foundation, even if the origin of the idea was disliked |
12:16 |
|
eythian |
I think it's overkill for a situation like this. I'd suggest start small, with a byline in release notes or just an email to the lists, and then build on that if there's reception to it. |
12:16 |
|
thd |
eythian: I suspect that if the feature is well considered, a feature useful for schools in Africa will be useful for schools everywhere. |
12:17 |
|
thd |
eythian++ start small |
12:17 |
|
Brooke |
moving on to |
12:17 |
|
Brooke |
Organize bug hunts: try to shake out all bugs in module x, and document tests on the wiki and look at the bugs for that module so we could clean up bugzilla and get some serious testing done + get some written test plans that we could try to automate later on |
12:17 |
|
thd |
However, lack of testing is a big and not a small problem. |
12:18 |
|
mtompset |
How about bug hunt through bugzilla? |
12:18 |
|
mtompset |
There are lots of things needing sign off, or just sitting there. |
12:18 |
|
Brooke |
hate to be a downer here, but how much testing can we actually do with the number of manhours we've got? |
12:18 |
|
jcamins |
Not a lot more than we are already doing. |
12:19 |
|
thd |
Brooke: We need to entice librarians to participate. |
12:19 |
|
mtompset |
And that's where sandboxes come in. |
12:19 |
|
thd |
... or even library users. |
12:20 |
|
mtompset |
I may end up going to the main office in the near future to see if I can get the library person there to participate in sandbox testing. :) |
12:20 |
|
thd |
There is no shortage of library patrons, some of them must be motivated to improve the library. |
12:20 |
|
Brooke |
their local library, perhaps |
12:20 |
|
Brooke |
it's a tougher sell getting them to look at koha |
12:21 |
|
Brooke |
in especial with no central body to donate to |
12:21 |
|
Brooke |
almost done |
12:21 |
|
Brooke |
More ideas? Do other project have systems that work? (Achievement system for Developers OR better use of an existing tool like Ohloh or Chorewars for status and karma?) |
12:22 |
|
Brooke |
wikihow has a quick thumbs up thing for edits that other people find useful |
12:22 |
|
eythian |
launchpad has karma points |
12:23 |
|
Brooke |
I think chorewars was uber effective for a while, and might still be so :) |
12:23 |
|
eythian |
though, we'd probably have to patch them into bugzilla if we wanted them, that would be a notable amount of work |
12:23 |
|
thd |
I worry much about prizes giving wrong motivation but libraries could easily donate greater circulation periods or other privileges. |
12:23 |
|
Brooke |
fine forgiveness might be an attractive thing |
12:24 |
|
drojf1 |
thd: do you really expect patrons to learn the library system of the library they are using? |
12:24 |
|
Brooke |
a tiny percent do and will |
12:24 |
|
eythian |
thd: I'm sure we've all built in "if (username eq "robin") { $fines = 0.00; } ;) |
12:24 |

Brooke |
Is the wiki login working for new folks now? |
12:26 |

I bollocksed this up last time |

so I'd appreciate oleonard helping this time |
12:34 |
|
Brooke |
so I don't do it again |
12:34 |
|
mtompset |
Since we were noting that a lot of Kiwis were asleep, I suggest a Kiwi friendly time be chosen. |
12:34 |
|
Brooke |
I'm equally knackered, so I think it's equally likely |

We have a regular location. |

The rotation would have the next meeting at 2:00 UTC -- last two were 10:00 and 18:00 |
12:35 |
|
jcamins |
I vote we follow that, so 2:00 UTC. |
12:35 |
|
Brooke |
which is friendly for kiwis, yes? |
12:35 |
|
Brooke |
cause its everyone's turn eventually |
12:35 |

I think that puts it around supper for them. |

4AM? |
12:36 |
|
Brooke |
it's always shite for someone |
12:36 |
|
mtompset |
Well, what day will the next meeting be? |
12:37 |
|
mtompset |
Because paul_p may or may not have an update on 3.10 |
12:37 |
|
eythian |
I think that's about 4pm NZ time or so |
12:37 |
|
davidnind |
rotation is good, 2 UTC = 2pm in NZ |
12:37 |
|
eythian |
2 then |
12:37 |
|
eythian |
I never remember which way it goes :) |
12:37 |
|
jwagner |
We got away from the first Wednesday of the month. Since paul_p is out all of August, maybe skip to early Sept? |
12:38 |
|
thd |
jwagner: The danger would then be an extra long meeting next time. |
12:38 |
|
Brooke |
not only that |
12:38 |
|
thd |
Koha should never have a holiday. |
12:38 |
|
paul_p |
thd = isn't this one extra long already ? :D |
12:38 |
|
Brooke |
but string freeze is coming up soonish, yes? |
12:38 |
|
cait-m__ |
will paul be there at 4 am? |
12:39 |
|
Brooke |
doubt it |
12:39 |
|
thd |
paul_p: Yes, but partly for the reason which jwagner cited. |
12:39 |
|
mtompset |
perhaps keep it to august, because the next rotation may be europe friendlier? |
12:39 |
|
oleonard |
4AM and during your vacation eh paul_p? |
12:39 |
|
cait-m__ |
so can be aug |
12:40 |
|
paul_p |
oleonard lol ! |
12:40 |
|
Brooke |
1 August is still vaguely august |
12:41 |
|
mtompset |
That's too close. |
12:41 |
|
oleonard |
1 August is in two weeks |
12:41 |
|
Brooke |
yep |
12:41 |
|
thd |
Exactly, whether during the summer leaving period or not, 2 UTC would be a difficulty for paul. |
12:41 |
|
paul_p |
thd = well, in fact it's less difficult during holidays = I can go back to bed hereafter ;-) |
12:41 |
|
oleonard |
I suggest 15 August |
12:41 |
|

12:42 |

how can I see if a particular cpan module is installed? |
12:52 |
|
schuster |
debian system |
12:52 |
|
jcamins |
schuster: use packages. |
12:53 |
|
jcamins |
Barring that, perl -e "use Module; print 'Hi';" |
12:53 |
|
schuster |
I want to specifically see if Business::ISBN is installed. |
12:53 |
|
jcamins |
perl -e "use Business::ISBN; print 'Hi';" |
12:54 |
|
oleonard |
Or check the Perl modules tab on Koha's about page |
12:54 |
|
mtompset |
If you are using debian, DO NOT attempt to install from scratch. USE THE PACKAGES! |
12:54 |
|
oleonard |
...which is a christmas tree of red squares for me |
12:54 |
|
eythian |
sounds like a lesson learnt there ;) |
12:55 |
|
mtompset |
I actually tried, and encountered a messy headache, so I gave up. |
12:55 |
|
mtompset |
Since we are using Ubuntu anyways, and I just wanted to see if my instructions would work for debian too. |
12:55 |
|
eythian |
schuster: I'd do: "sudo apt-get install libbusiness-isbn-perl" which will either install it, or won't if it's already there. Regardless, you'll know that it's installed when this is complete. |

I have I think what are the 2 patches to make it work, but after reindexing it still doesn't do it. |
13:01 |
|
mtompset |
oh... did you restart the koha-zebra-daemon? |
13:02 |
|
eythian |
it's rare to need to that |
13:02 |
|
eythian |
only if you change zebra config |
13:02 |
|

everytime I do a full reindex, I need to restart it. |

13:03 |

I turn off apache, do a full reindex, restart the daemon, and start apache. |
13:03 |

It avoids the memory problems we were having, and it works. |
13:04 |

it's whichever module you're running, probably mpm-itk |

which I think is the same as mpm-prefork |
13:09 |
|

How do I know which module I am running? |

see which apache module you have installed |

not in 512 |

True... that would probably eat our memory completely up. |
13:13 |
|
dpavlin |
Why is MaxRequestsPerChild 0 ? |
13:13 |

I assume that means "no limit" |
13:13 |

but I don't really know |
13:14 |
|
mtompset |
It's a default value. |
13:14 |

is running of of git, not Koha packages |

It's not a required module. |
13:15 |

oh right |
13:16 |
|
dpavlin |
eythian: MaxRequestsPerChild 0 == no limit, but I prefer number there just to be sure that something isn't leeking memory :-) |
13:16 |
|
eythian |
it's worth adding the koha repo then anyway, you get some extra packages |
13:16 |
|
eythian |
dpavlin: yeah |
13:16 |
|
eythian |
dpavlin: though CGI perl shouldn't leak :) |
13:16 |

Apache does leak. |
13:16 |
|
* oleonard |
also doesn't find Data::Pagination or Data::Paginator |
13:16 |
|
dpavlin |
eythian: true. plack is influencing my judgement :-) |
13:16 |
|
mtompset |
I've watched ours leak about 1MB per koha page request. |
13:16 |
|
eythian |
goodness |
13:17 |
|
mtompset |
what number would you suggest, dpavlin? |
13:19 |
|
mtompset |
Of course, the leak goes away, so it is more of poor garbage collection than a leak. |

The MARC standard for LCCN number is the 010 field, and that is indexed by default as LC-card-number,Identifier-standard |
14:50 |
|
schuster |
Very odd - when I loaded it though with 001 it did match based on the 010. |
14:50 |
|
schuster |
001 as the tag match point. |
15:04 |

Why do you ask wizzyrea? It makes logical sense, but I wonder about the performance issue of adding another query in each pla?ce we display patron information |

I ask because this is something that NEKLS wants to see happen |

Don't use 001 for matching. |
15:42 |

Really. |
15:43 |
|
jcamins |
I know I am alone in this, but I feel it is a bad idea. |
15:43 |
|
jcamins |
Oh, jwagner agrees with me. :) |
15:43 |
|
jcamins |
schuster: use 010$a and LC-card-number. |
15:44 |
|
jwagner |
jcamins, not always :-) If you have a catalog with only one type of control number in 001 (like OCLC), you can use it. |
15:44 |
|
jwagner |
But I prefer combined matching rules, checking maybe 001, 035, 010, etc. |
15:44 |
|
jcamins |
jwagner: if you are trying to overlay records from the same source, yeah, sure, use 001. |
15:44 |
|
jcamins |
But don't confuse that situation with "001 has a standard number." |
15:45 |
|
jwagner |
Yes. It depends on how clean the catalog is. If you're merging data from multiple sources, you can't really rely on it |

Auth is ugly. |

I sure don't mind someone calling part of Koha ugly when it is prefaced by saying they're working on fixing it :) |
16:15 |
|
mtompset |
have you seen ANY Koha implementation that actually used .htaccess? |
16:15 |
|
mtompset |
because that's the only case I can figure that REMOTE_USER gets defined. |
16:16 |
|
mtompset |
for authentication, that is. |

16:18 |

Is REMOTE_USER set with SSL? |
16:18 |
|
mtompset |
hmm.... I didn't try https://192.168.69.37:8080/ |
16:18 |
|
mtompset |
I only did the http version. |
16:19 |
|
jcamins |
Well, you have to configure SSL. |
16:19 |
|
mtompset |
That's what a development install is for. ;) |
16:19 |
|
jcamins |
But I have a suspicion that REMOTE_USER might be set by Apache if you configure it to use SSL certificates. |
16:20 |
|
mtompset |
I believe it is set when the browser is instructed to prompt for a username/password by an .htaccess file. |
16:20 |
|
jcamins |
SSL certificates also include username. |
16:20 |
|
mtompset |

mtompset |
Paul pointed out that EOL is EOL regardless of what we call it, and from a Developer perspective that is very true. |
16:24 |
|
mtompset |
However, I think the terms "Orphaned" and "Killed" are better suited from the user perspective. |
16:25 |
|
jcamins |
mtompset: we've been telling people to upgrade from 3.4 for a while. |
16:25 |
|
oleonard |
jcamins: Then reply and vote for "killed" :) |
16:26 |
|
mtompset |
Yes, but you haven't been telling them, "If you don't upgrade now, I won't support you any more." |
16:26 |
|
mtompset |
Have you? |
16:27 |
|
jcamins |
Sort of. |
16:27 |
|
jcamins |
The vast majority of support questions are "why doesn't X work?" and the answer is often "X works in 3.6.x and 3.8.x, so you need to upgrade if you want it to work for you, too." |
16:28 |
|
mtompset |
That's not quite a "I won't support you" problem. |
16:28 |
|
mtompset |
That's a "The solution is upgrading" |
16:28 |
|
jcamins |
Hmmm... |
16:28 |
|
jcamins |
I'm not sure I see a distinction. |
16:28 |
|
oleonard |
Sounds like "I won't support you unless you upgrade" to me |
16:29 |
|
jcamins |
I will help people using 3.2 if their questions are about things that are the same between 3.2 and a recent version. |
16:29 |
|
jcamins |
But I don't remember how 3.2 worked, so if they aren't seeing the same things I am, all I can say is "sorry, you'd have more luck getting support if you used a supported version." |
16:30 |
|
mtompset |
That's more of an "orphan" than a kill. |
16:30 |
|
mtompset |
A "kill" would see the same bug in master as 3.2, and still say, "You should upgrade." |
16:31 |
|
jcamins |
Well, I'd say that, because they're never going to get the fix in 3.2. |
16:31 |
|
jcamins |
Even if I fix it in master immediately. |
16:32 |
|
mtompset |
But that's because you didn't fix it in 3.2 |
16:32 |
|
mtompset |
It's still EOL. |

You need to have your Zebra reindexer running. |

If you installed it from the tarball, you'll need to make sure rebuild_zebra is being run in your crontab. |

CharlottevL, do you have a circ rule allowing your login to borrow that item? |
17:38 |

CharlottevL |
yes, i have... |
17:38 |

If you're not allowed to borrow it, you can't place a hold either |
17:39 |

jcamins |
I will let someone else tell you exactly what circ rules are needed, because I have forgotten. |
17:39 |
|
oleonard |
You need at least one rule for all patrons/all item types |
17:40 |
|
jwagner |
identify the patron category and the item type in question. THen look for a circ rule covering that combination. If there isn't one, check the default rules |
17:40 |

What happens if you try to check out that item to that user? |

it works without problem. |

Can you place a hold on that item for that user in staff mode? |
17:45 |

it works only if i click on the record, if i click in the search-result list, there is error !One or more selected items cannot be placed on hold" |

That sounds like a circ rule problem, but do you have other items on the title, and are any of them non-circulating items (like reference)? |

Do you have a rule covering that specific combination of patron category and item type, or a default rule that would apply |
17:57 |

is that fixable? |

19:25 |

oleonard: this is good for putting things in order, but I'm not sure you'd approve of it for enabling lots of plugins: http://jqueryui.com/demos/draggable/#sortable |
19:25 |
|
oleonard |
I've got no problem with adding that |
19:25 |
|
jcamins |
I mean, the configuration page in question would be for enabling plugins. |
19:26 |

Suggestion plugins, for example: spelling, from authorities, from VIAF, from... |
19:26 |
|
jcamins |
etc. |
19:27 |
|

They need to be put in the proper order (where "proper" = the order the library wants), but they also have to be enabled or disabled. |
19:32 |
|
wizzyrea |
jcamins have you looked much at how wordpress does plugins? |
19:33 |

jcamins |
wizzyrea: I think plugins are just enabled or disabled with Wordpress, aren't they? |
19:34 |
|
oleonard |
jcamins: I could see you emulating the jqueryui example you posted, with checkboxes in each of the sortable divs, or a layout where you move each sortable item from the "disabled" box to the "enabled" box |

if you can run a raspberry pi off of AAA batteries, I think you could use those lamps to charge them |
20:04 |
|
wizzyrea |
dk how stable the current is tho |
20:04 |
|
wizzyrea |
or use the panels in several lamps |
20:05 |
|
jcamins |
wizzyrea: not very. You need to filter it and you need some sort of battery for when the sun isn't up. |
20:05 |
|
* jcamins |
was picturing 1m^3 solar panels when you said "small" |
20:05 |
|
wizzyrea |
right, those lights basically work on the principle that the battery runs the light, and the solar cell charges the battery |
20:05 |
|
wizzyrea |
and they have a photodetector that turns off the light during the day |
20:05 |
|
wizzyrea |
so battery only charges when it's light out |

Alas, I'm too early for papa, I think. |

Also, I need to remove the ".pm" from that string. |

22:27 |

martian523 |
so i have to delete one by one? |
22:27 |
|
rangi |
yes, you can do it in the db, but that wont check if they have items on issue or hold etc |
22:27 |
|
martian523 |
sigh! |
22:28 |
|
libsysguy |
rangi I thought there were fk restraints for that? |
22:28 |
|
rangi |
there is code for batch modifications and deletes of patrons in testing at the moment |
22:28 |
|
rangi |
libsysguy: no, there are cascade on deletes |

ahhh |

for some anyway |
22:29 |

thanks for the help though |

you might first anonumize patrons |

is there a bug no for that batch mod rangi? |

unless the user in your koha-conf.xml is root |

no its not |
22:33 |

the nice thing with it is, it su to the user |

and runs the ugprade as that user using that instances conf |

ahhhh |

yeah you want to fix them, you dont want MyISAM |
22:36 |

rangi |
no foreign keys with that |

is it ok if I replace in the dump? |

in theory yes |

hay, i just discovered something nice about perlcritic too.... |
23:49 |
|
rangi |
yep, too many uses |
23:49 |
|
jcamins_away |
And nothing else. |
23:49 |
|
rangi |
hence, Koha:: |
23:50 |
|
rangi |
which if it has no other goal, breaking that chain should be the only one |
23:50 |
|
rangi |
actually its the only thing I care about for Koha:: |
23:50 |
|
rangi |
stop the dependency chains |
23:50 |
|
rangi |
the rest is all gravy |
23:51 |
|
jcamins_away |
I actually already moved all the required functionality to Koha::, but since it was one function call, I wondered what it'd look like if I shimmed in GetAuthority. |
23:51 |
|
jcamins_away |
(hint: it looks outrageous) |
23:51 |
|
mtj |
perlcritic (with a default config) gives some false violations for ./koha.git dir |
23:52 |

mtj |
i tweaked a .perlcritic file, and its down from 671, too 551 violations :) |

23:53 |
|

that should already be in there mtj |
23:53 |
|
rangi |
look at t/perlcriticrc |
23:54 |

rangi |
which is what the 00-testcritc.t test uses |

bah, so it is :p |

rangi |
my $rcfile = File::Spec->catfile( 't', 'perlcriticrc' ); |

overtime we can make it more strict, when we get all the nasty category 5 errors gone :) |

rangi |
not that i recall |
23:59 |

rangi |
about jcamins ? |
23:59 |
|
mtj |
we could run a pc::prog test on a stricter level... |
23:59 |

23:59 |

and the .pl files of course |
