00:38 cait lol
00:38 cait ok :)
00:39 kathryn I means sways
00:39 * wizzyrea wonders why cait isn't in bed.

00:39 wizzyrea excuse?
00:39 cait excuse?

00:42 mtompset joined #koha
00:42 mtompset Greetings, #koha.
00:43 mtompset I was wondering if anyone might know if there is a way to auto-magically generate the LDR records in a MARC file.
00:43 eythian surely you jest :)
00:44 eythian not in a meaningful way, it requires semantic information
00:44 eythian the record size is about the only bit that can be.
00:44 eythian unless you mean in the Koha cataloguing interface, where I think it just happens when you click, doesn't it?
00:46 wizzyrea it does
00:47 wizzyrea i'm not sure, however, that its entirely accurate - how could it be you haven't specified anything about the item yet?
00:47 wizzyrea i think it gives every item the same LDR
00:47 rangi its not even slightly accurate
00:47 eythian that's what I'd expect
00:47 wizzyrea whether that's right or not
00:47 cait-m joined #koha
00:47 rangi you use the dropdown thingy
00:47 rangi if you want an accurate one
00:47 wizzyrea "thingy" must be a technical term
00:48 eythian wahanui: status
00:48 wahanui Since Wed Sep 26 23:44:47 2012, there have been 1396 modifications and 396 questions.  I have been awake for 36 days, 1 hour, 3 minutes, 24 seconds this session, and currently reference 22881 factoids. Addressing is in optional mode.
00:54 wizzyrea oh my!
00:54 mtompset I have data in SFM format, which is pretty easy to map to MARC, but there's no LDR record to map. So, can I import it without an LDR record?
00:55 mtompset I mean field... ARG, I keep messing up records and fields with respect to MARC files.
00:57 eythian oh, just grab the LDR from a stereotypical record and slap it in.
00:58 mtompset Koha doesn't validate the LDR field?
00:59 mtompset MARC?\
00:59 mtompset MARC?
00:59 wahanui The MARC specs live at http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/ - abandon hope all ye who enter here.
01:08 eythian https://twitter.com/adzebill/s[…]656305664/photo/1
01:08 eythian mtompset: validate against what?
01:09 mtompset Against validate value ranges for each position?
01:09 mtompset Against valid value ranges for each position?
01:10 eythian well, there's documented values, but aside from the size part, there's probably an excuse for having anything
01:11 mtompset true enough.

06:00 wizzyrea oh yes, she's fine and well - I think they were supposed to get power back tonight
06:00 Oak oh good
06:02 Oak Brooke said we should worry about Nicole not her.
06:03 Oak i did not even know about the whole thing... as I don't watch tv, and well, don't read newspaper either. bad habit i know.
06:07 mtompset I think I saw nengard on yesterday.

08:51 mveron Hi cait-m :-)
08:53 mveron I see that de-DE is completely translated, will there be any changes? Otherwise I teake it now for de-CH...
08:56 cait joined #koha
08:56 cait mveron: don't know about changes, I think we might find some things to correct while testing
08:57 cait but you might wan to test de-ch too... so maybe good to start that
08:57 Oak so how is marcus?
08:58 mveron cait: OK, I will do. When ist deadline for translations?
08:58 * magnuse waves to cait
08:58 cait I am not sure
08:58 Oak hmm
08:58 cait shortly before release I would guess
08:58 cait hi magnuse :)
08:59 magnuse should be shortly before the release, i think?

09:20 Maxie2012 joined #koha
09:20 Maxie2012 Hello!
09:23 Maxie2012 I have just managed to install the Koha 3.8 package on Debian Squeeze following the instructions from a link that was recommended i.e. http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]on_Debian_Squeeze
09:25 Maxie2012 I used the koha-common package
09:25 magnuse well done Maxie2012!
09:27 Maxie2012 I entered the command to create the Koha instance and reached the part that says "Once done you should be able to see something at http://kohaadmin/ and http://koha/ from your desktop machine."
09:27 Maxie2012 I'm STUCK!!  I don't know how to get in!
09:27 Maxie2012 help....!
09:27 wahanui help is at http://koha-community.org/support/ if no-one here can help.
09:30 Maxie2012 well...I was hoping someone here could give me some clue as to what I should be looking for and where....unfortunately, I'm also not familiar with Linux
09:30 Maxie2012 As such, I don't even know if the installation was successful...
09:41 Maxie2012 can anyone help explain what it means when it says you should be able to see something...
09:41 Oak Maxie2012, where does it say that?
09:42 Oak what does http://localhost in your browser say?
09:42 Oak and http://localhost:8080
09:44 Maxie2012 in the documentation.....Koha 3.8 on Debian Squeeze
09:48 Maxie2012 went to http://localhost and it says SYSTEM MAINENANCE The Koha online catalogue is offline for system maintenance
09:50 magnuse woohoo, that means it's mostly working!
09:50 magnuse how about http://localhost:8080/
09:52 magnuse Maxie2012: what you see on http://localhost is the opac, but you need to visit the intranet and run through the webinstaller before you can actually see the opac
09:53 Maxie2012 when I go to http://localhost:8080/ it says unable to load page
09:54 Maxie2012 okay...I know this is really a dumb question, but how do I visit the intranet?
09:55 Maxie2012 I've been trying for about an hour....is there a command I can key in from the command line?
09:55 Maxie2012 that's what I meant by I can't get in...
10:15 Maxie2012 seriously....can anyone out there help?
10:16 lds joined #koha
10:16 Maxie2012 I just can't get to my intranet site to access the Web Installer
10:25 magnuse oops, sorry about that Maxie...
10:45 jcamins Good morning, #koha.

11:35 magnuse good middle-of-the-day to you too paul_p :-)
11:36 paul_p magnuse = for you is it middle of the day or middle of the night ? :D :D
11:37 magnuse ? definitely middle of the day :-)
11:44 * jcamins adds an auto-signoff switch to git-bz for the release process.
11:53 jcamins @later tell chris_n Could you please take a look at bug 8490? I can test and sign off, if you can confirm that the change is reasonable.
11:53 huginn jcamins: The operation succeeded.
11:54 jcamins paul_p: there's actually another workaround, I think.
11:54 jcamins Erase $ARGV in your psgi.
11:54 paul_p jcamins = yep, but OTOH, I don't see why we should keep $ARGV, so, it's a better fix
11:55 paul_p jcamins = about the auto-signoff to git-bz, please share this with us !!!
11:55 jcamins paul_p: I'm inclined to agree with you, but if that's actually used from the command line, we can suggest erasing ARGV.
11:55 * paul_p just finished the tour of all bugs that have 'Plack' somewhere !
11:57 paul_p bug 8892, bug 8997, bug 8949, need signoff !
11:57 jcamins paul_p: would you object if I corrected the grammar of your warning?

11:57 paul_p jcamins = of course no !!!
11:59 jcamins I can't test bug 8892, since no matter what I do I can't get the acquisitions module to stop telling me to create a budget, but I can test the other two.
12:04 jcamins paul_p: https://github.com/jcamins/git-bz
12:07 paul_p jcamins = about the acquisition, do you have a budget that is ACTIVE ?
12:08 jcamins I did. I deleted it with the plan to go back and create a new active budget, in the hopes that maybe it would help.
12:09 jcamins paul_p: a signoff on bug 9005 would be much appreciated. The way I can't just activate a language drives me nuts.
12:09 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=9005 major, P5 - low, ---, jcamins, Needs Signoff , Changing sysprefs requires restart under Plack

12:18 nengard joined #koha
12:19 oleonard Hi #koha
12:19 edveal joined #koha
12:20 jcamins Is there a reason that the headings on the facets aren't translated?
12:23 NateC joined #koha
12:24 oleonard jcamins: The headings don't come from the template, they come from the script: [% facets_loo.type_label %]
12:24 jcamins oleonard: ah.
12:24 jcamins Yuck.
12:25 oleonard Wait, that's not entirely true
12:26 oleonard Actually now I'm confused about it
12:26 oleonard This line: [% facets_loo.type_label %]
12:26 oleonard ...is followed by [% IF ( facets_loo.type_label_Authors ) %]Authors[% END %] etc.
12:27 libsysguy sounds like a bandaid gone bad
12:27 oleonard And in the OPAC the template lacks the [% facets_loo.type_label %] line
12:28 oleonard So where are you seeing untranslated headings jcamins ?
12:29 jcamins http://screencast.com/t/DO5R6z2a5lai
12:29 oleonard Incomplete translation?
12:29 jcamins I guess that could be.
12:29 jcamins Same issue in Bokmal.
12:30 cait-m joined #koha
12:30 oleonard I don't know how one checks to see if a translation is incomplete or whether you're seeing something which cannot be translated
12:31 * jcamins does.
12:31 * jcamins delegates this question to cait, for when she gets home from her vacation.
12:32 chris_n jcamins paul_p: ARGV was a quick and dirty debug tool I used early in dev of the label stuff
12:33 paul_p chris_n yep, seen your comment. And jcamins has signed off -;)
12:33 chris_n its safe to remove it and/or replace it where necessary
12:33 chris_n getopts would be better for the scripts that are cli useful
12:33 * chris_n hopes to get back to Koha in Jan 2013
12:33 jcamins chris_n: as a debug tool in the future, it is possible to pass HTTP arguments on the command line: ./script.pl arg=whatever
12:34 chris_n right
12:34 chris_n there was a reason I did not do that, but I cannot recall atm :)
12:34 chris_n probably frustration with very broken code or some such
12:35 * chris_n tends to grab the hammer too quickly sometimes
12:35 libsysguy ^^ same
12:36 * chris_n heads back to the world of elusive voip problems
12:36 libsysguy poor chris_n, he was a good fellow
12:40 asaurat joined #koha
12:41 jcamins paul_p: if you revise that patch, you may want to use my changed text.
12:42 paul_p jcamins ???
12:42 wahanui somebody said jcamins was too young to be the President of the United States.  Which is a pity, because he had the votes at the 3.12 election.
12:43 jcamins paul_p: bug 9008
12:43 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=9008 normal, P5 - low, ---, paul.poulain, Failed QA , Warn if librarian logged-in with mysql/admin account
12:43 oleonard paul_p: I noticed a typo
12:43 jcamins oleonard found some problems with the markup.
12:44 * paul_p confused... jcamins weren't you talking to oleonard in fact when you said " paul_p: if you revise that patch, you may want to use my changed text."
12:44 * paul_p has a confirmation that he is invited for a conference in New Delhi in february, to talk about Koha. /me happy !!!
12:45 jcamins paul_p: not unless oleonard is revising the patch for bug 9008.
12:45 jcamins Yay!
12:45 oleonard congrats paul_p
12:45 oleonard I'd be happy to submit a revised patch for 9008 if that would help. jcamins, you suggest a text change?
12:46 jcamins oleonard: the text change is in the patch I signed off on.
12:48 oleonard "admin login" seems ambiguous. I wonder if there's a better way of saying that.
12:49 jcamins Possibly, but I'm not sure what it is.
12:49 oleonard "MySQL user" more accurate but not less confusing?
12:50 oleonard "database administrator login?"
12:50 jcamins Hm. That makes sesne.
12:50 jcamins *sense
12:58 * libsysguy now remembers what he was going to ask chris_n
13:05 jcamins I need some commit hooks.
13:09 wizzyrea joined #koha
13:18 oleonard khall around?
13:24 oleonard Neat, I didn't know you could pass an arbitrary set of bug numbers to Bugzilla and get a nice list
13:24 oleonard http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]358&list_id=45371
13:25 oleonard These are the bugs from paul_p's list for 3.10
13:32 oleonard I forget... If I want to sign off on something and sneakily include a tiny typo fix how should I do it?
13:32 santy joined #koha
13:33 jcamins oleonard: make the change, add the file, and then use git commit --amend -s
13:34 oleonard Ah, I missed the add the file step
13:39 maximep joined #koha
13:51 oleonard Custom Google search of the manual broken? I don't see the form on http://koha-community.org/documentation/
13:52 jcamins oleonard: it shows up and works for me.
13:53 oleonard Must be my don't-track-me-bro settings in my browser
13:54 jcamins Probably.
13:55 oleonard 3.6 was the first Template::Toolkit version wasn't it?
13:55 jcamins 3.4.
13:55 oleonard Oh, even further back. So these custom RSS feeds have been broken since 3.4
13:56 oleonard I don't think we need to warn anyone about removing them since they can't have been working for that log
13:57 talljoy joined #koha
13:57 jcamins Well, if people had their own templates they might not have been affected.
13:57 jcamins Maybe.
13:58 mtompset Greetings, jcamins and oleonard.
13:59 mtompset I have a coding question... I have a file with markers that map relatively easily to MARC fields and subfields... how do I actually build a MARC::Record in a disjointed manner? That is, one marker is 245$a, but the next line is 245$b. How do I get them on the same 245 field?
14:00 jcamins Check if a 245 exists before creating a new one?
14:01 mtompset Okay... I've done that... but how do I update the existing one?
14:01 mtompset I don't see a function which returns a MARC::Field object in MARC::Record.
14:02 jcamins mtompset: http://search.cpan.org/~gmchar[…]C/Record.pm#field(_tagspec(s)_)
14:02 mtompset That doesn't return a MARC::Field.
14:02 mtompset I think fields() does, but then I have to find the right one.
14:03 mtompset Is there a better way?
14:03 gmcharlt mtompset: it does in fact return a MARC::Field object (or list of them, in list context)
14:03 mtompset fields() does, but field('245') doesn't.
14:04 jcamins mtompset: yes it does. my $field = $record->field('245').
14:05 mtompset Oh shoot... typo on my part... that explains it.
14:05 mtompset s vs. no s.
14:06 mtompset Finally... I knew asking would help me debug. :)
14:07 gmcharlt so *that's* what it feels like when gdb attches to one's brain ;)
14:08 mtompset YES!
14:09 mtompset Now to run the MarcEdit validation...
14:09 mtompset Oh shoot! That sucks... I thought 700$a was repeatable.
14:10 jcamins No, of course not.
14:10 jcamins 7xx fields are controlled.
14:10 mtompset Well, neither is 100$a.
14:10 jeff 700 is repeatable, 700$a is not.
14:10 jcamins In MARC, 1xx, 6xx, 7xx, and some 8xx fields are controlled.
14:10 jcamins That means no repeating $a. You have to repeat the entire field.
14:13 jcamins mtompset: I guess you found another library-related posting?
14:13 mtompset No, this is the same project... It just keeps growing.
14:14 mtompset We're working in Asia, so we are now adding branches in another country now.
14:14 mtompset And they have their library files in yet another bizarre format.
14:14 jcamins Ah.
14:15 mtompset Well, not really bizzare, just I would not have expected SFM files.
14:15 jcamins Never heard of them.
14:16 mtompset paste?
14:16 wahanui i heard paste was found at http://paste.koha-community.org
14:16 pastebot "mtompset" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "Sample dummy record of SFM file" (3 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/259
14:17 mtompset Each MARC record is delimited like a MRK file, a blank line.
14:17 jcamins Oh, yeah, I've seen those.
14:17 mtompset The tags at the front of the line map to various fields/subfields.
14:18 mtompset It's used in an application called toolbox.
14:18 mtompset or is it shoebox now...
14:18 mtompset I can't remember which is newer.
14:18 mtompset But it is available for download for free.
14:18 mtompset And was more intended for dictionary development.
14:19 mtompset But it can be used for a very elementary library catalogue.
14:21 cait-m joined #koha
14:27 mtompset Okay... next question... I put some don't generate blank field logic in my code, and now there are only "three" problem records.
14:28 pastebot "mtompset" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "How would you resolve these kinds of problems?" (2 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/260
14:29 jcamins I'd get them to recatalog that record, since it's clearly wrong but what they meant is unclear.
14:30 mtompset Okay... so pass them the MRK file to clean up.
14:30 jcamins Yes. They have to figure out who wrote the book.
14:30 mtompset What if it was co-authored?
14:31 jcamins Then they have to decide that.
14:31 jcamins First author goes in 100, second author goes in 700.
14:31 jcamins However, based on that information, you have no way of knowing whether that's one person or two.
14:32 jcamins Especially not programmatically.
14:36 mtompset My guess is two... look at the second $a on the 700 and the 100$a... two individual names, and the first one merges them.
14:36 mtompset The problem is there's no nice way to clean that programmatically.
14:37 jcamins Yeah, that'd be my guess as well.
14:37 jcamins But the only way to be sure is to have them correct it.
14:37 mtompset It's gets uglier on the other example, they change the order of first name and last name.
14:38 jcamins You mean the put the names in the correct order?
14:52 oleonard Ugh, I'm in Search.pm and my brain hurts now!
14:53 jcamins oleonard: I could've told you that was a bad idea.

15:19 mveron It seems that parts of 'Edit quotes for QOTD feature' is not translatable. In German I get things like "Showing 1 to 4 of 4 entries". Seems to be related to koha-tmpl/opac-tmpl/prog/en/js/datatables.js
15:20 mveron Can anybody confirm for other languages?
15:25 oleonard The include datatables-strings.inc should pass the translatable strings to the script. I wonder if the problem is that stray </script> at line 9 of quotes.tt?
15:28 mveron oleonard: I will test it.

16:02 mtj are you testing using the kohaadmin/db user?
16:02 jcamins No, should I be?
16:02 mtj no
16:03 mtj i was doing some acq testing as kohaadmin, and got that similar error… :/
16:03 jcamins But when you logged in as a regular user it worked?
16:03 mtj switching to a proper user, fixed that problem, for me
16:03 mtj yep
16:03 jcamins Humbug.
16:04 jcamins Maybe the problem is that the budget was created by the database user.
16:04 mtj i googled, and spotted khall had the same problem as me...

16:30 jcamins And when I say "printer-friendly" what I really mean is "I can't use HTML instead of LaTeX, no matter how much I want to be lazy, can I?"
16:30 oleonard It is if you're willing to relinquish control over how it looks

17:15 jcamins tcohen: lambda kills kittens, and pdflatex isn't fond of unicode either.
17:15 jcamins There's a new version?
17:15 jcamins Ooh!
17:15 jcamins New version of LaTeX
17:16 tcohen debian has had problems packaging texlive (and hence ubuntu)
17:17 tcohen (precise comes with 2009 version)
17:17 jcamins Yeah, 2009 is what I have.
17:17 tcohen but quantal has 2012 already so...
17:17 jcamins I figured it was so stable that they'd just stopped working on it. :P
17:17 tcohen for my thesis i had to (conveniently) install by hand the 2012 version

17:28 jcamins libraryman: what format are the books in?
17:28 jcamins *records
17:28 libraryman excel
17:29 jcamins You will need to convert them into MARC.
17:29 jcamins A lot of people use Marcedit for that.
17:29 jcamins marcedit?
17:29 wahanui marcedit is a great tool to help you with that.  Or there are other Marc Editing tools you can use as well.  well there ya have it from kf_a!
17:30 * Oak waves goodbye
17:30 libraryman can i upload them all at once?
17:30 jcamins wahanui: forget marcedit
17:30 wahanui jcamins: I forgot marcedit
17:30 jcamins libraryman: yes, if you convert them to MARC.
17:30 libraryman how
17:30 libraryman will csv help
17:31 jcamins marcedit is a tool for editing MARC records. It can also convert spreadsheets to MARC. See http://people.oregonstate.edu/[…]it/html/index.php
17:31 jcamins Yes, CSV is generally better to start with than Excel.
17:31 libraryman k
17:31 libraryman so all i need is the conversion
17:31 libraryman tnx pals
17:32 jcamins Assuming you have Koha installed and set up, yes.
17:32 libraryman k
17:32 libraryman it is installd
17:33 jcamins So, yes, if you convert the records to MARC you can just upload the records using the "Stage MARC Records" tool.
17:34 libraryman tnx man!tis realy insightful

18:02 tcohen yes, the last one
18:02 wahanui i guess the last one is the first one if you look backwards.
18:03 libsysguy oh okay, what is the middle one?
18:03 tcohen a patch that applies to 3.8
18:03 tcohen obsolete it too
18:03 libsysguy okay
18:04 libsysguy I just didn't want to clutter up my nice clean qa space
18:04 libsysguy :p
18:04 tcohen look elliot, i really tried to fix this the way paul said
18:04 tcohen i just didn't understand the code, that was too complex
18:04 tcohen (unnecesarilly)
18:04 libsysguy uh oh lol
18:05 tcohen is it ok if you write another patch for this
18:05 libsysguy heh I am having to refactor my code.  If yours doesn't work I'll take a poke at fixing the current code before I delete it :p
18:06 tcohen as i see it if the code has big branches inside, it is better to call a specific function for that
18:06 tcohen (days vs. hours)
18:07 tcohen and mixing branches is much worse
18:07 tcohen (that's what the code does
18:07 tcohen having multiple if hours... inside every  branch)
18:08 libsysguy okay, well I'll give it a shot
