09:01 andreashm humm, can't apply bug 10662. I get a warning about kohastructure.I would assume that this has something to do with updatedatase.pl? Is there something I need to do with kohadevbox, since bug 13068? Magnuse?

09:13 SamEEE joined #koha
09:17 magnuse andreashm: on my way to lunch
09:17 magnuse where do you get the warning about kohastructure?
09:18 andreashm magnuse: fatal: sha1 information is lacking or useless (installer/data/mysql/kohastructure.sql).
09:18 andreashm when trying to apply
09:19 andreashm doing a git fetch origin, to see if that helps
09:24 magnuse that sounds more like a regular git problem than anything related to kohadevbox, i thnk
09:24 * magnuse magnus_afk
09:24 andreashm alright, hope so.
09:24 andreashm thanks magnuse
09:48 cait andreashm: one thing to check maybe is if your repo is current
09:48 cait but if it remains sha1... then you can set to 'doesn'tapply'
09:49 andreashm cait: doing a git fetch origin right now. wanted to be proper. but its going slooooooow.
09:49 cait andreashm: did you vote for kohacon yet?
09:49 andreashm cait: no, I havent. mostly because I can't make my mind up. =)
09:49 cait good to spend time with :)
09:49 cait ok, that's a godo reason :)
09:50 andreashm Greece would be easier, more ppl from us could go... but I'd like to see Manila.
09:52 andreashm If my work would pay for a trip to the Philippines, is another question though.
10:01 andreashm woho, managed to apply bug 10662! Just my git repu that was out of shape...

10:55 grharry Hi KOHA!!
10:58 grharry I have a nice problem here! I must add  a bunch of z3950 Providers that have all kinds of different charsets( i.e.   ISO5428:1984 )   in their data  is there a way to convert these into UTF8 in a koha module ?
11:00 grharry Also is it possible to add a proxy on a remote  z3950 Servers config ??
11:03 drojf goodness, we have a lot of people voting for kohacon 2016
11:06 drojf grharry: i don't think what you are asking is possible at the moment
11:06 magnuse drojf: yay
11:06 drojf grharry: but i am no expert on z39.50 stuff, others may know better
11:07 grharry hm
11:08 grharry I am searching for a combination of yazproxy and  metaproxy from indexdata !!!
11:08 grharry anybody ??
11:08 wahanui The #koha IRC channel is populated by people from many timezones, sometimes even on weekends. However, if no one is here right now and you need help you should take a look at http://koha-community.org/support/
11:10 drojf grharry: if metaproxy does what you want, you probably have to set it up yourself for the servers you want to use and then put your metaproxy in koha (if i understand it correctly)
11:10 drojf (just read the website for a second, may be wrong)
11:11 drojf i think they have a hosted service to do what you want, too
11:13 grharry :P
11:17 drojf you're welcome to do a koha integration too ;)
11:20 grharry drojf: Yes, this could be an option! Provided all others are OUT!
11:21 drojf grharry: maybe ask on the mailing list to reach more people, it's pretty quiet here at the moment
11:25 grharry I think most ILS's inluding KOHA ingnore the fact that also some other charsets EXIST out there!!  UTF8 and LATIN1 are not alone in this universe !:-/
11:26 drojf i think people using latin1 or greek standards from 1984 should consider moving to the 21st century and switch to utf-8 already
11:26 alex_a joined #koha
11:31 * magnuse agrees with drojf
11:32 magnuse you can choose between 6 differet encodings when you set up a new z39.50 target, though. and it should not be too hard to add more
11:33 grharry drojf: I agree with you!!! :) On the other hand we would like to use and benefit from their data !!!
11:33 magnuse or just alter the contents of the z3950servers.encoding on the command line, perhaps...
11:34 drojf grharry: give them a hand and help converting it to 2015 ;)
11:34 grharry drojf: FUNDS ARE LOW ... ALL OVER, my man !!
11:39 magnuse grharry: have you tried altering z3950servers.encoding from the command line?
11:39 magnuse i don't think koha does much with those ancoding names, except pass them to something else that does the conversion
11:49 grharry manguse: what is the util that will do that "altering z3950servers.encoding from the command line? " ???? =-O
11:51 Viktor joined #koha
11:53 meliss joined #koha
12:04 magnuse grharry: ah, i was thinking about using the terminal to login to mysql, but i'll not lead you astray if you are not used to working with that
12:05 grharry :)
12:07 grharry manguse: Allow me tell you this. The  remote z3950 servers charset is HARD-CODED into "./koha/intranet/htdocs/intranet-tmpl/​prog/en/modules/admin/z3950servers.tt" file
12:07 grharry at about 170 line
12:09 magnuse yup, i did a patch some ages ago to add to that hard coded list
12:10 grharry The contents of z3950servers Field "encoding" is totally ignored if values are not  'utf8' 'EUC-KR' 'ISO_5426' 'ISO_6937' 'ISO_8859-1' 'MARC-8'
12:10 magnuse it could/should probably be an authorized value, to make adding encodings easier
12:10 magnuse oh, they are ignored?
12:11 grharry I would suggest adding a master table
12:11 grharry with all the crazy bib charsets
12:11 tcohen joined #koha
12:11 grharry and the util to convert them
12:11 grharry like yaz-icov
12:12 grharry that is connected with the field
12:12 tcohen morning
12:13 grharry ;-)
12:14 z0k joined #koha
12:14 tcohen @later tell pianohacker you should attach a  patch with those changes, so people can test your patchset. But chances are that the hash doesn't match with current master by the time it gets pushed, so there might be a need to re-do it
12:14 huginn tcohen: The operation succeeded.

12:58 hkh Hallo,
12:58 hkh I recently added a bug 14800 in bugzilla which was correctly identified as a duplicate to 14739 by Nick Clemens. Prior to adding this bug I did search for a similar bug using "patron card creator" as a search term which showed me several bugs but 14739 was not among these. So I was sure this is a new bug... Is there a way to avoid missing a relevant bug? The problem here seems to be  that...
12:58 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=14800 normal, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, RESOLVED DUPLICATE, Adding Patrons to new Batch increments batchno instead of adding patron to list
12:58 hkh ...there are two applicable components: Tools (where the patron card creator is found) and Label/patron card printing (where bug 14739 is assigned) and the latter is not matching "patron card creator".
12:58 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=14739 normal, P3, ---, nick, Signed Off , Add several patrons to a new batch will create a new batch per patron added
13:00 cait khk you can use the modules to limit search a bit but it's often a bit tricky
13:01 cait hkh:...
13:01 cait the bug wranglers and qa people try to identify duplicates, I think ti's often a matter of knowing thereis another report right now
13:02 grharry left #koha
13:04 JoshB joined #koha
13:08 hkh would it be helpful e.g. to add a bug for component tools with a description "if your bug is about tool patron card creator - please use component label/patroncard printing"? This  might help to assign unambigously a component
13:09 rocio joined #koha
13:10 mveron hkh: If you find a bug related to patron card creation that has not Label/Patron card printing as module please change the module as appropriate.
13:12 cait hkh: there is a bit of description here: http://bugs.koha-community.org[…].cgi?product=Koha

13:30 cait hi tcohen :)
13:30 hkh Hallo Marc, I think you gave me a good hint! After searching for "patron card creator" I should have looked at the assigned component and search again for "label/patron" to get a complete list  including 14739. When searching for "patron card creator" there are quite a few bug reports with comp Tools, Architec, Patrons, Acquisit, I18N/L10.
13:30 hkh Hallo Katrin, I will read describecomponents.
13:34 mveron hkh: I changed the module on some bugs to "label/patron card printing"

15:03 barton question about koha-shell -- is there a way to get it to launch in the instance's $HOME directory, rather than staying in the directory that it was launched in? A-la 'su - user' rather than 'su user'.

15:30 mtj $ koha-shell --command 'cd ~/ ; pwd ' mykoha
15:30 mtj etc..
15:30 mtj i think your idea would be a handy arg for koha-shell tho :)
15:31 drojf joined #koha
15:31 barton mtj: yeah... I really want to be in the instance's $HOME when I launch it interactively...
15:32 drojf evening
15:32 barton good $(TIME_OF_DAY) drojf :-)
15:33 mtj barton: hmm, whats 'interactively'?  you mean with --login ?
15:33 barton with --login, or simply without  --command ...
15:34 mtj --login seems to default to $HOME already?
15:34 barton I do a fair amount of command line work inside the koha-shell environment.
15:34 barton ah. I didn't know that.
15:34 drojf hi barton
15:34 drojf uh stormy evening
15:35 barton mtj++
15:35 barton koha-shell++
15:36 mtj ah yes, there is a diff. with/without the --login arg
15:37 mtj so... use --login, problem fixed :0)
15:39 mtj $ koha-shell --login --command 'pwd'  mykoha
15:39 mtj ...even better, you can combine the 2 args
15:40 mtj will run the command, and set $HOME
15:40 barton noice.
15:43 barton totally different subject -- does anyone here have perl debugger experience? I've always wondered how to script a series of debugger steps, e.g. if I want to replay a bug that's deeply nested in the call stack. I've never seen good documentation on how to do that...
15:49 mtj hmm, perhaps this barton
15:49 mtj http://search.cpan.org/~rjbs/p[…]mands_from_a_file.
15:50 mtj source - read commands from a file.
15:50 mtj Opens a lexical filehandle and stacks it on @cmdfhs; DB::readline will pick it up.
15:50 mtj ive never used it, myself... but it looks promising
15:51 mtj ..and yeah... not many results via google huh :/
15:51 barton going to have to try that...
15:52 reiveune bye
15:52 reiveune left #koha
15:52 barton looks like 'save' will save the history, suitable for replaying using 'source'. Nice.

21:00 magnuse joined #koha
21:05 nitz0 cait: not really. I installed koha 3.18 (packet) in ubuntu two days ago. I didnt's specify any language, I did a default installation. While I was reading install docs, I read that changing language is easy.
21:05 cait ah yeah it is
21:05 cait if you have packages
21:05 nitz0 cait: So, minutes ago I tried to koha-translate -i es-ES
21:06 cait ok
21:06 cait what happened?
21:07 nitz0 cait: But "Koha directories hierarchy for es-ES must be created first" msg appeared and It was difficult to find googling the reason.
21:07 nitz0 (difficult to me)
21:07 cdickinson joined #koha
21:07 cait hmmm
21:07 cait have you treid rerunning th ecommand?
21:08 cait also check in the i18n tab of the system preferences if the language shows up there already
21:08 nitz0 perl translate?
21:08 cait the koha-translate comment
21:08 cait command
21:08 nitz0 yes, I used that command
21:09 nitz0 And nothing appears into Admin -> I18N/L10N preferences
21:12 cait hm have you run it with sudo?
21:12 cait i thik the package commands require it
21:12 JesseM joined #koha
21:12 mtj hey cait, nitz0

21:20 Brooke ever try and get Yahoo to do anything?
21:20 pianohacker kk :)
21:20 pianohacker yeah, was talking to a friend, apparently proper SMTP is a paid feature?
