16:39 gwheeland so i figured i would try out KOHA and see how it works 16:38 gwheeland we are currently with III and nobody around here seems to like them, and it cost ALOT of money 16:37 rch gwheeland: so what led you to koha?

16:14 gwheeland im on the "install MARC::Record module" part of this 16:13 gwheeland ok i have a stupid question now 16:13 owen gwheeland, yes 16:13 owen Joshua Ferraro, the founder of Liblime, started out working for Nelsonville. 16:13 gwheeland oh, so Owen you work for nelsonville?

15:56 gwheeland "package libxslt1-dev has no installation candidate" 15:55 rch and see what error you get. 15:55 rch or try apt-get install libxslt1-dev 15:55 gwheeland should i install it? 15:55 gwheeland oh 15:54 rch aptitude is /sort of/ a front-end to apt-get 15:54 rch it'll show you broken packages and dependency problems. 15:54 gwheeland is that the "apt" part of apt-get install ****** 15:54 rch aptitude is a text gui for package management. 15:53 gwheeland ok i think you just lost me 15:53 rch i like aptitude for managing dependency problems 15:53 rch hi greg - I'm Ryan 15:53 gwheeland by the way my name is Greg and thanks for helping me out 15:52 gwheeland libyaz libxslt1-dev, and libwrap0-dev 15:51 rch which packages?

13:45 kados gwheeland: you mean etch? 13:45 gwheeland anyone here good with koha and the recent release of debian? 13:44 dewey hello, kados 13:44 kados gwheeland: hi 13:44 gwheeland anyone alive in here? 11:56 Lea cool. I'm not too sure I fully understand right now but I'm sure it'll get clearer 11:39 hdl It should be a good way to do. 11:39 hdl If you can take those information apart with a foreach my $field($marc->field($tagitem)){push @items,$field; $marc->delete_field($field)} 11:37 hdl Lea : holding information are supposedly (in Koha) in one field. 11:13 Lea it's then importing the item data that's tricky. Unless I'm missing something here 11:06 Lea well, i'm not too sure. I'm an amateur at library systems. I was thinking that I'd import all the data into the resovoir then somehow import the item data afterwards? I don't know what the best strategy would be. All i know is i have 1 MARC record per item currently. I can strip this down to unique items then strip out only the biblio data we need, export to marc then import into koha using bulkimport. 11:04 hdl import perl script provide biblios in BREEDING farm, not in catalogue. Is that what you need ? 11:04 Lea so would you suggest doing this on the database level? 11:03 hdl 3rd : create new records which contains only the item field and create item linked to bibid. 11:03 Lea Will what you are suggesting work with that? 11:02 Lea *provided in koha 11:02 Lea I was going to clean up the data and import the biblios using the import perl script 11:02 hdl or biblionumber 11:02 hdl This will provide you with bibid 11:02 Lea hdl: wait 11:01 hdl 2nd : create biblios using NEWnewbiblio 11:01 hdl Delete them from biblios 11:01 hdl First : get the fields that contains items and store them aside. 11:00 Lea ok, what is the preferred method for importing this data? 11:00 hdl (or may have one)
