03:06 eythian @later tell cait oh yeah, I remember why I hadn't done anything with that module: it's full of things that need to be fixed, and the people who want it haven't made any attempt to polish it up for acceptance in debian despite handholding through the process.
03:06 huginn` eythian: The operation succeeded.

07:46 cait lots of rain here too
07:59 xarragon Just to be a complete jerk; we have shining sun here on the west coast of Sweden
08:00 cait heh
08:01 cait i like rain, just the walk to work was a bit ... wet
08:03 xarragon I have to sit with the linds down, or I can't see the screen. Makes me feel like a nerdy shut-in. Which.. might be close to the truth. :-)

10:25 cait bug 14172 - looking for a tester :)
10:25 huginn` Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=14172 major, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, Needs Signoff , Acq: "Spent" lists incorrect titles and wrong total in some cases

11:15 xarragon cait: I can test it, have looked at the patch but I have never used those parts of Koha. It will take some fiddling about and maybe I have to ask a thing or two.
11:16 cait xarragon: cool :)
11:16 cait i tested it with a database here and the results looked correct, but it's kind of a tricky sql... i hope it will survive more testing :)
11:18 xarragon Yay, no deps!
11:19 xarragon I love the half-insane feeling of using git on a running web application.
11:19 cait if you've never used acq the test plan might be a bit sparse
11:19 cait heh
11:20 xarragon Amazingly enough it has not yet broken once.
11:20 cait why shoudl it? :)
11:20 xarragon Because of my magic touch.
11:21 cait people who break stuff easily are good testers
11:21 cait at least that's what i keep telling myself :)
11:21 xarragon "Oh, nice cement block you have there!" *fiddle* *CRASH* *BREAK* *EGFAULT*
11:21 xarragon "It did it on it's own!"
11:22 xarragon I get a bunch of warnings about the database update btw.. Are those ignorable on a dev install with only crap data anyway?
11:25 xarragon Hmm, currencies, exchange rates. Seems pretty intricate; must be challenging to do integration of all this in the field.
11:27 xarragon Exchange rate updates would be nice to have automatic updating on I guess.
11:27 wahanui xarragon: that doesn't look right
11:27 wahanui joined #koha
11:28 xarragon wahanui: I have played around with a custom patch for the database.. So I would count mine as tainted and ignore it.
11:28 wahanui xarragon: sorry...
11:28 xarragon wahanui: Ah I see, wrong person?
11:28 wahanui bugger all, i dunno, xarragon
11:39 cait yeah if you test updates that are not just a new pref or something easy, dump before thte test and restore db after

11:55 indradg cait: around?
11:57 xarragon indradg: He spoke moments agoe, should be here or back soon.
11:58 xarragon cait: Hm, I am adding an aquistion.. Quantity is set to 0, and I am not allowed to change it, but it is required to be > 0.
12:07 xarragon well, the html inspector could change that readonly field

13:09 huginn` indradg: The operation succeeded.
13:19 cait phone call
13:19 cait reading back now
13:19 cait xarragon: thre should be a button to add items
13:19 cait above the quantity field - that will make the number go up
13:25 cait xarragon: if you cheat changing th efield otherwise you will probably cause problems :)

13:33 mjk joined #koha
13:33 mjk hey there Koha-users and developers
13:34 nengard hola
13:34 nengard :)
13:34 mjk weird problem here: items that I add to the catalog aren't showing up as searchable...
13:35 mjk they can be checked in/out but i can't "find" them in either the staff or patron interface.
13:36 nengard sounds like your indexer isn't running
13:36 mjk it was working fine. i just noticed this in the last week or so...
13:37 mjk i wonder how it got switched off
13:38 mjk how long will it take to get things "caught up"
13:41 indradg joined #koha
13:44 xarragon cait: Yeah, I removed the record, watched the ByWater tutorial, and setup up my items properly and redid it.
13:46 mjk that's weird... i tried to do a rebuild of my zebra index and i got these errors:
13:46 mjk 09:44:52-15/05 zebraidx(3700) [warn] Couldn't open collection.abs [No such file or directory] 09:45:23-15/05 zebraidx(3700) [warn] Record didn't contain match fields in (bib1,Local-number)
13:46 cait xarragon++
13:47 cait mjk: you need to witch your installation to dom indexing most likely
13:47 mjk how?
13:47 cait first
13:47 cait check the about page, the system information tab
13:47 cait which version are you on?
13:47 wahanui which version are you on is, like, it in the database
13:48 mjk 3.18.06.000
13:48 cait ok
13:48 cait what does the system informations tab read?
13:49 mjk XML configuration file WarningThe <zebra_bib_index_mode> entry is missing in your configuration file. It should be set to dom or grs1 (deprecated). It will default to dom. InfoYour configuration file still seems to be set up for grs1. WarningThe <zebra_auth_index_mode> entry is missing in your configuration file. It should be set to dom or grs1 (deprecated).

13:49 cait mjk: that's your starting point
13:50 mjk how do i fix this? just change some lines in the config and restart?
13:50 cait basically yes and you reindex

14:07 talljoy joined #koha
14:08 mjk ok, lets's see if this has worked. it's rebuilding the index now...
14:09 mjk shit... now i'm getting this error when i try to search:
14:09 mjk Error: Can't call method "raw" on an undefined value at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Search.pm line 800.
14:10 cait hmmm
14:10 cait did you restart your zebra?
14:11 cait and no errors on reindexing this time?
14:16 mjk restarted and reindexing appears to be clean
14:20 mjk well, after a full reboot, things finally seem to be working
14:22 cait yay
14:23 cait indradg: ?
14:23 indradg cait: I patched bug 14070
14:23 huginn` Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=14070 minor, P5 - low, ---, indradg, Needs Signoff , Notice not saved when mandatory fields are not filled

14:25 indradg cait: but would like to hear if it should be treated as a bug before proceeding further with a patch

18:22 huginn` tcohen: The operation succeeded.
18:22 tcohen wnickc: thanks for the patch
18:23 wnickc tcohen: np, is that sufficient?  or should I add a test to make sure the id does change from 0 when items are added?
18:24 tcohen the more you test, the better
18:24 tcohen but please fill a new bug :-D
18:24 tcohen because I'm about to push it
18:24 wnickc can do, once I assure myself I can add a test without breaking things again :)
18:29 tcohen you won't, don't worry
18:29 tcohen you successfuly fixed them so, should feel more confident

18:48 mtompset Sorry for the after-the-fact sign off, tcohen. :)
18:48 tcohen mtompset: no worries, i'm glad you tested it anyway
18:50 tcohen less diags btr, yay!
18:50 wnickc joined #koha
18:51 tcohen @later tell eythian I really need to talk to you about those packages, i'm worried that they don't pull the right dependencies, so even if you package them I might need to patch PerlDependencies to add them. So I need to know how are you thinking of solving the packaging issue
18:51 huginn` tcohen: The operation succeeded.
18:51 nengard left #koha
18:52 tcohen mtompset: have you already fixed t/db_dependent/Barcodes.t ?
18:52 mtompset That sounds familiar... let me check.
18:53 tcohen yes
18:53 tcohen 13673
18:53 mtompset Yes.
18:53 mtompset I took indradg's sign off virginity with it. ;)

18:58 indradg taking of sign-offs... can someone take a look at bug 14070
18:58 huginn` Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=14070 minor, P5 - low, ---, indradg, Needs Signoff , Notice not saved when mandatory fields are not filled
18:59 mtompset That was on my to do list, indradg. :)
18:59 indradg yay! mtompset++
18:59 mtompset perhaps another tit for tat, indradg? :)
19:00 indradg sure... no harm in giving a shot
19:02 mtompset {insert explitive expressing surprise}
19:03 mtompset It tells me to fill it in, but then loads back to the original page?!
19:03 mtompset I hope your patch fixes this, indradg.
19:03 indradg mtompset: that it does
19:04 indradg mtompset: however I ran into something else over there... bug 14206

19:19 tcohen Disneydave: absolutely
19:20 nengard hola Disneydave
19:20 tcohen the release manager, for instance, uses 14.04 to work on Koha
19:20 nengard hehe
19:20 Disneydave Awesome - will upgrade to 14.04
19:25 jmsasse joined #koha
19:26 mtompset Disneydave: Yes. Though, Debian is what the majority of developers use. :)
19:26 mtompset indradg: I got a little more explicit in the test plan. :)
19:26 mtompset sign off coming. :)
19:27 indradg ok!
19:27 tcohen bye #koha
19:27 tcohen have a nice weekend
19:28 wnickc_ joined #koha
19:35 indradg thanks mtompset! nice of you to elaborate on the test plan. I was more worried with not being able to delete a notice that didn't have the email one defined.
19:35 mtompset But you don't have a patch on the bug to sign off. :P
19:36 indradg 14206? Almost ready
19:36 indradg it is a simple fix

20:12 mtompset Nice quote, indradg|dinner
20:12 indradg mtompset: one of my all time favs... can prolly recite half the script
20:17 mtompset indradg: I was also looking at bug 7571
20:17 huginn` Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7571 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, kohapatch, Failed QA , Maintain exchange rate history
20:18 indradg kohapatch... that must be Amit Gupta's
20:18 mtompset Yes.
20:18 mtompset Personally, i think it is a good idea.
20:19 mtompset The problem is the whole description and iso code mess we have in the currency section.
20:19 indradg it is... the multicurrency thingie needs proper planning and an RFC
20:19 mtompset I was hoping cait or someone else would be around to discuss it.
20:19 mtompset Do we have a Currency.pm?
20:20 indradg yes
20:20 mtompset Mmmm... really? C4/Currency.pm? Koha/Currency.pm?
20:20 mtompset We only seem to have a currency.pl
20:21 mtompset Ah... it's part of C4/Budgets.pm
20:22 mtompset Oh... we have a Koha/Number/Price.pm
20:23 mtompset And there's a CurrencyFormat system preference?!
20:26 indradg aargh... don't get me started on CurrencyFormat syspref
20:27 indradg i tried contacting the author of the original CPAN module we are using... no reply
20:27 mtompset Number::Format?
20:29 indradg Locale::Currency::Format
20:32 indradg The Indian numerical formatting is like this - for 100 million it is - 10,00,00,000
20:32 indradg mtompset ^
20:32 mtompset {insert explitive}
20:32 mtompset What kind of strange methodology is that?
20:32 indradg plus the Indian Rupee symbol isn't on the file -  "₹" (Unicode U+20B9)
20:33 mtompset So for a 1000 million? how would that look, indradg?
20:34 mtompset How do you know where the separators go?
20:34 indradg mtompset: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I[…]Use_of_separators
20:35 indradg " is used in India as well as in Bangladesh, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka." - thats a good 1/5 of the global population... it needs to be on-board
20:36 indradg ICU had added it a long back
20:36 mtompset So, in blocks of 2 except the last block of 3?!
20:36 indradg yep... just the first thousand
20:37 indradg everything else moves in 100s... very metric :P
20:38 mtompset But why 1000?!
20:39 mtompset Everything in 100's across the board would make sense to me... but that exception at the end is strange.
20:39 indradg beats me... will have to look up books on vedic maths

20:44 tcohen hi
20:45 mtompset tcohen: indradg professed his love for you, while you were gone. ;)
20:45 indradg lol
20:45 mtompset -- love of pushing his first signed patch. :)
20:46 indradg well... i did use his commit to obsolete yours
20:46 indradg :P
20:46 tcohen hey, i was pleased to do it. he's been around for a while (before i showed actually)
20:46 mtompset I guess that makes him an old man. :)
20:47 tcohen tcohen?
20:47 wahanui well, tcohen is obsessed with automated testing :)
20:47 mtompset tcohen: I put in a blurb for the dev news. :)
20:48 pastebot "mtompset" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "blurb" (16 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/109
20:48 tcohen we have a section for that
20:48 indradg tcohen: when you find some free time from RM pressures... do have a look at bug 14070, it needs to pass QA

20:48 mtompset indradg: though he has the power and authority to do so, sometimes he let's the QA team take a look first. :P
20:49 mtompset take a look at the paste, indradg. Find one of those numbers not signed off. :)
20:50 tcohen indradg: yeah, you don't want an angry QAM,
20:50 tcohen she transforms from Katrin into Katrina ;-)
20:50 indradg tcohen: be it far from me to anger cait :P
20:50 cait lol

20:51 indradg heh

20:51 tcohen heh
20:51 mtompset Is Katr really an X? :)
20:51 mtompset Hurricane reference better than mine.

20:52 mtompset cait++ # for her general awesomeness in QA. :)
20:54 tcohen mtompset: have you already sent that email?
20:54 indradg tcohen: off-topic - is there an en SRT file for the "We are Koha" video? I would like to translate that to bn_IN... recently I showed it to a group of students who liked it... but they don't speak a lot of english
20:54 mtompset To kohanews, yes.
20:55 tcohen indradg: sure!
20:55 indradg thanks
20:55 tcohen we should definitely have more videos

20:56 tcohen don't you think NateC?
20:58 tcohen indradg: sent
20:59 indradg mtompset: taking a look at bugs 14110, 14111, 14118, 14120, 14121
21:00 indradg tcohen: got it! thanks! :)
21:12 rocio left #koha
21:30 tcohen gmcharlt: we don't have a syntax for specifying indexes depending on the value of ind1 or ind2, right?
21:32 tcohen jcamins?
21:32 wahanui jcamins is, like, insane
21:36 cait it would b enice to have one
21:37 cait hm also on the existance of another subfield with a specific value
21:37 cait like the $2s
21:37 cait or... ldr pos 7 = s ... serial title index
21:43 tcohen cait, could you think of the use cases?
