08:26 ashimema @later tell caroline hopefully it was a blip.. the youtube link works for me.. it's the KohaILS channel rather than the PTFS specific one.

09:07 Joubu magnuse: are you currently translating?
09:08 Joubu cait1: you are as well?
09:15 magnuse i was doing some in the last hour, yes
09:20 cait joined #koha
09:29 cait I am translating
09:29 cait ye
09:29 cait s
09:29 cait trying to finish prefs
09:29 cait Joubu: sorry, I didn't see your question right away
09:38 Joubu ok
09:38 Joubu the values on https://translate.koha-communi[…]master/#languages are not correct
09:38 Joubu the stats are not updated
09:38 Joubu it's reported there https://github.com/WeblateOrg/[…]late/issues/10508
09:40 cait what is the consequence?
09:41 Joubu confusion, for instance Spanish is 100% translated but it says 90%
09:41 Joubu the release notes (translations %) will not be correct either
09:41 Joubu not a bit deal, but letting you know that we know ;)
09:45 cait oh
09:45 cait can we fix manually?
09:45 magnuse Joubu++
09:45 cait if something has 100% it woudl be great if we could say that
09:45 cait it's a lot of work poeple put in to treach that
09:45 Joubu we can fix the 100%, yes I guess
09:45 Joubu but it will need to be done today
09:46 Joubu I won't, and Tomas will certainly not have time for that...
09:46 magnuse i was sondering about the numbers here: https://translate.koha-communi[…]staff-prog/nb_NO/ it says "10,926 All strings — 50,311 words" but also "10,926 Unfinished strings without suggestions — 50,311 words" but there are definitely some translated strings...
09:52 thd joined #koha
09:52 tcohen[m] I'll fix then manually if needed
09:53 tcohen[m] Good morning
09:53 thd Good morning.
09:54 thd ashimema: Are you present?
09:54 paulderscheid[m] Hi #koha
10:08 cait maybe we should leave the info out, if it's incorrect
10:17 magnuse is there something else than restarting plack needed to make changes to /etc/koha/sites/mykoha/log4perl.conf "take"?
10:18 Joubu memcached
10:24 magnuse ah, thanks!
10:26 cait good morning tcohen
10:27 cait still racing trasnaltion deadlie.. tell me when you cut off?
10:27 cait 25 more for prefs... and installer wlel.
10:28 thd cait: Yes, avoiding false information would be good.  However, leaving it out may be the same work as a manual fix and some people prefer somewhat incorrect information on schedule with an update later instead of a delay.  There may be more important bugs which could be fixed with a delay.  A scheduled release cycle has that inherent problem.
10:29 Joubu cait: there is no cut off from tcohen[m]
10:31 cait ah, dpeendson the i10n pacakge building?
10:31 Joubu yes
10:34 cait do we have an estimate for that?
10:34 Joubu it's usually done in the next couple of days after the tag is pushed
10:43 cait finishes prefs!
10:43 cait off to the installer we go
10:43 cait "Total item investigations" - PI? :)
10:57 magnuse cait++
11:32 tcohen[m] Joubu did you update weblate ?
11:34 Joubu yes, it didn't work, see weblate's issue
11:35 Joubu ttps://github.com/WeblateOrg/weblate/issues/10508

13:04 Annelisterman[m] still translating prefs. And had to leave some strings without translation in the staff-prog because we haven't come up suitable names for some of the new features.
13:07 cait1 lol
13:08 cait1 too many caits again...
13:08 cait Annelisterman[m]: I know waht you mean, in the past we had some discussion on the koha-de list
13:08 cait I remember stock rotation and rotating collections specifically, naming is hard
13:10 Annelisterman[m] stock rotation was hard :D
13:13 ashimema they're fairly different features in my opinion
13:13 ashimema I kinda wish stock rotation wasn't hidden behind a preference.. it's a nice feature which I feel is rarely used
13:16 Annelisterman[m] yes they are different and if I have understood right how rotating collection work, it is more of a tool to transfer items in batch to another library. So.. they're not actually "rotating"?
13:17 ashimema totally
13:17 ashimema I'd love to rename it
13:17 ashimema think I suggested that years ago
13:18 ashimema to me it's more about 'collecting a bunch of items together' actually
13:18 ashimema so a bulk transfer from wherever the items may be right now to a single place so you can use them in a display or for a reading club or something
13:19 ashimema where as stock rotation is all about rotating individual items regularly around libraries to give everyone a fair chance of borrowing them from their local library
13:21 Dyrcona joined #koha
13:22 cait ashimema: maybe we should just activate on new installations by default?
13:23 cait ashimema: are the pre-release noes current?
13:23 cait goint to try and help pretty
13:23 ashimema yup
13:23 ashimema I'm building them almost every 5 minutes at the moment 😜
13:24 cait oh
13:24 cait i thought i had seen 4 hours ago
13:24 ashimema as for enabling things by default
13:24 ashimema it's often been an annoyance that we don't do that for me
13:24 ashimema it's always been our way.. new stuff stays hidden
13:25 ashimema https://gitlab.com/koha-commun[…]notes_23_06_00.md
13:25 cait I think the 'least disturbance' rule is in general good
13:25 ashimema it's not regular right now cait.. I'm manually triggering it pretty regularly whilst I do fixes 😜
13:25 ashimema yeah.. least distrubance
13:25 cait thx!
13:25 ashimema but for fresh install.. I think on by default is good
13:26 cait somewhere you'd want me to start or just work through top down?
13:26 cait and agreed
13:33 domm[m] Is there a script to merge a bigish bunch of authorities (and relinking biblios)?
13:33 ashimema I started at the top
13:33 ashimema but i'm by no means perfect 😜
13:34 ashimema I've not gone through all the architectural ones yet.. I usually try to look at those and move them to appropriate sections if I feel they do a little more than just hidden arch stuff
13:35 ashimema otherwise.. I've reached 'Allow patrons to have overdue items that would not result in debarment when removing overdue debarments'
13:36 ashimema and need some lunch now
13:36 cait ok
13:36 cait I'Ll try to catch up
13:36 ashimema so feel free to pick up from there?
13:36 cait domm[m]: what do you mean by merge? overlay?
13:36 cait staged tools can work on authorities, bullkmarcimport maybe too, but not sure
13:37 cait we use a ...somewaht customized script for that
13:38 domm[m] no, we have for example some manual entered auth and the same but imported from GND. Ignoring how we find the duplicates, we want to delete the "bad" auths, keep the good GND ones, but of course link all biblios using the bad to the good ones
13:39 domm[m] I can probably easly write a script that calls C4::AuthoritiesMarc->merge
13:39 domm[m] but before I do that I wondered if it already exists
13:41 domm[m] oh, and more generally: What's the deal regarding C4 vs Koha. I think that C4 is old and Koha:: is the new way to go (based on DBIC), but when working on some new code, should I still use the old C4 stuff, or rather try to move it into Koha::?

14:21 Dyrcona joined #koha
14:22 ashimema Joubu around?
14:22 ashimema Yes.. if you can you should write new code using the patterns in Koha/ domm
14:23 ashimema there's obviously a pragmatism line at some point.. we wouldn't expect you to rewrite the whole of C4::Circulation in Koha::
14:23 domm[m] ok, and also move (copy?) stuff from C4 to Koha, if I can't find equivalent in Koha?
14:23 ashimema though we do encourage migrating things into Koha:: when possible
14:23 domm[m] ok

14:49 cait sorry domm[m] - too many things going on here today :(
14:49 cait i think there is a deduplicate script floating on bugzilla - kidclamp might be good to ask about
14:49 Joubu ashimema: yes
14:51 cait domm[m]: I was thinking of bug 13706
14:51 huginn` Bug https://bugs.koha-community.or[…]_bug.cgi?id=13706 new feature, P5 - low, ---, nick, Signed Off , Deduping authorities script (dedup_authorities.pl)
14:51 ashimema I'm trying to understand whats outstanding manual wise..
14:51 cait maybe that would be helpful
14:51 ashimema url + version params
14:51 cait the auth linker script can also relink, but I am not very familiar with the options as we don't use it
14:52 domm[m] cait: thanks
14:55 cait I've been referring to soem blog posts on the bywater page in the past that explain some of the authority linking things more closely - might also be a good source. Not sure how much is in the manual. We import 'pre-linked' so usually don't deal with it
15:02 cait RN (Release Notes): do we want to add a quick note to Bug 35174 maybe? (
15:02 cait Po files removed from codebase
15:04 Joubu ashimema: https://koha-community.org/manual/23.11/fr/html/ - we have decided to stick with this for the moment. I have created ln -s on the server to point to "latest" when version is > 23.11
15:05 ashimema ok, sounds good
15:05 ashimema what about links from Koha's help
15:06 ashimema https://git.koha-community.org[…]Koha/Manual.pm#L7
15:06 ashimema I'm thinking we just hardcode latest in there for anything over 23.05 right?
15:06 Joubu what I am saying, it won't change, 23.11 will still work
15:06 Joubu 23.11 will link to "latest" on the server
15:07 ashimema so you're looking to create a symlink from version to latest with each release?
15:07 Joubu yes
15:07 ashimema I see
15:07 Joubu I've created up to 2026 already :D
15:07 ashimema hahaha.
15:07 ashimema ok
15:07 ashimema cool
15:07 ashimema I can tick that one off my list then 🙂
15:07 Joubu it's temporary, but it was the quickest and easiest
15:08 Joubu the idea was: even if we rollback, it will still work
15:08 ashimema yeah... works for me 🙂
15:08 Joubu rollback: 1 manual per version
15:08 ashimema indeed
15:08 ashimema I like
15:08 ashimema okies, thanks
15:12 ashimema right..
15:12 ashimema I'm not onto the ktd persistency testing
15:12 ashimema been a long week as usual
15:14 caroline I didn't know where the links to the manual from Koha were made... it's good to know
15:14 caroline we'll have to add the preservation chapter in there
15:16 cait there is a mapping file - do you want me to find you a bug where I did some link updating?
15:16 caroline ashimema just liked the file, it seems straightfforward enough
15:17 cait yep it is
15:17 kidclamp joined #koha
15:17 cait Joubu++ # I think you are to blame for that file :)
15:44 cait ashimema: shoul the notes update now automagically?
15:45 ashimema nope
15:45 ashimema I'm still hitting it manually
15:45 ashimema god knows why cron isn't behaving
15:45 ashimema building now
15:46 cait thx
15:46 cait I added some more to circulation
15:46 ashimema done
15:46 cait and one seemd out of order, I tried to sort it
15:46 cait well the text seemd to have gotten out of order
15:46 ashimema interesting
15:47 ashimema my laptop is melting trying to test Joubu's ktd persistence patches
15:47 ashimema 😧
15:48 cait at least you got it warm... we had snow today
15:48 cait 32932 Re-structure Vue router-links to use "name" instead of urls   33417 Create one standard Toolbar component is in ERM - should we move more of these to Architecture?
15:48 ashimema the laptop may be melting, but I'm sat here shivvering
16:02 cait there is so many I could still write note sfor ugh.
16:03 caroline Is there an equivalent of PatronSelfRegistrationAdditionalInstructions for *before* the patron registers? I'd like to add a message like "by registering you accept the policies bla bla", but in that one it only shows up after the patron has registered...
16:04 ashimema is that not covered by some of the gdpr prefs?
16:05 caroline what are they called again?
16:05 caroline privacypolicy?
16:06 caroline it says it's to use the opac, but I could use the opac without registering?
16:06 reiveune bye
16:06 reiveune left #koha
16:07 caroline oh yeah, no, it appears when registering
16:09 caroline the text doesn't seem to be editable tough
16:09 caroline (and I noticed a translation error... oops)
16:15 cait Memo to myself... ask for release notes early when pushing
16:16 ashimema lol
16:19 cait ashimema: shoudl this be new feature? def deserves some notes!
16:19 cait https://bugs.koha-community.or[…]_bug.cgi?id=27378
16:19 huginn` Bug 27378: enhancement, P5 - low, ---, matt.blenkinsop, Needs documenting , Enable compliance with EU Cookie Legislation via cookie consent
16:19 cait cookie consent
16:20 ashimema blimey
16:20 ashimema I forgot that was only actually pushed in this version
16:20 cait lol
16:20 cait will you work it out?
16:20 ashimema we've been running it in production for 3 years ;!
16:21 ashimema shame the follow-ups didn't all make it
16:21 ashimema they make it a signficuantly more polished feature
16:21 ashimema I really don't like it much as it is in master ☹️
16:21 tcohen[m] The QA team will work harder next cycle
16:21 ashimema but these things happen
16:21 ashimema lol
16:21 cait it was not in the queues
16:22 cait so don't blame QA
16:22 cait just don't write "I don't like it like this' in the notes please
16:23 ashimema the follow-ups only hit the queues 10 days or so ago
16:23 ashimema it's just a shame it took so many years for the initial feature to work through
16:23 ashimema it meant I had months to get my head back around to it for writing those follow-ups
16:23 ashimema nywho
16:23 ashimema adding notes now
16:25 tcohen[m] I'm fixing some minor things in the release scripts
16:25 tcohen[m] after that I would like to wrap the release
16:25 tcohen[m] if there's something that needs a few more minutes
16:25 tcohen[m] keep me posted
16:28 lukeg joined #koha
16:28 ashimema building now cait.. let me know if you think that's OK
16:28 cait i am still writing notes
16:28 cait but you don't have to wait for me
16:28 cait I'LL just write until last minute :)
16:29 ashimema Did aude catch you tcohen?
16:29 cait maybe could have mentioned the word cookie banner  - just missing a bit the user perspectice ;)
16:29 ashimema I think she was hoping you might manually add a note about the new one manual to rule them all change
16:30 tcohen[m] ashimema: nope
16:30 tcohen[m] happy to add anything y'all need
16:30 cait i think circulation has some note gabs... but working on 2 in reports still
16:36 ashimema there really is a surprisingly large amount in this release when you start going through the notes
16:36 ashimema 'tis huge
16:36 aude_c[m] tcohen can we please have bug 34955 mentioned please? I just added some release notes text

16:43 ashimema that'll mean the release tools just pick it up for you 🙂
16:44 ashimema git commit --allow-empty -m "Bug 34955: One Koha Manual"
16:47 cait I am not sure if we shoudl not have a new bugzilla category for the preservation module
16:47 cait it's currently a bit lost in Tools
16:47 cait and we added one for ERM too
16:47 ashimema I've not played with it.. is it a fully fledge module
16:47 ashimema if so.. yes
16:47 ashimema I can add one for you now
16:48 cait i'd day it is
16:48 * ashimema still wishes it was just called 'Workflows' or something like that..
16:48 ashimema it feels like it could have been way more generic and re-usable
16:48 cait has a new system preference tab too
16:48 caroline I'd say so too, it's a button on the main page and in the More menu
16:49 cait did you add?
16:49 ashimema OK
16:49 ashimema I need
16:49 cait I'll group the bugs
