Time Nick Message 21:04 gmcharlt Merry Christmas fbcit 21:03 fbcit Merry Christmas koha. 20:08 kados VM acting up again ... :/ 20:07 kados *nod* 20:06 gmcharlt although a feature to ease management of such library maps would be nice (and distinctive) 20:05 kados *nod* 20:05 gmcharlt a library could provide lots of specific info about which location codes correspond to which physical shelves, but that's not an instant thing to implement 20:04 gmcharlt kados: yeah, you pretty much have to fake it, at least in the general case 20:04 kados unless we just 'fake it' 20:04 kados I guess it means there's no way to truly identify shelf order 20:04 gmcharlt false_economy-- 20:03 kados :) 20:03 gmcharlt they're probably a bit misguided IMO, but that's the practice 20:03 gmcharlt i.e., a lot of small public libraries don't insist on uniqueness 20:03 gmcharlt yes -- can't guarantee it, since nothing prevents a library from having duplicate call numbers 20:02 kados gmcharlt: I notice there's no imposed uniqueness on cn_sort, is that on purpose? 20:01 kados brilliant, thanks 20:00 gmcharlt select cn_sort from item where cn_sort <= X order by cn_sort desc limit 2? 20:00 gmcharlt select cn_sort from item where cn_sort <= X limit 2? 19:59 kados yea, that's messy 19:59 kados ok, here's an SQL question gmcharlt ... say I have the cn_sort value from one item, and I want to find the two before and after ? 19:59 gmcharlt icky, icky -- prior to this change, biblioitems.marc would be left in MARC-8 but biblioitems.marcxml would be in UTF-8 (presumably because MARC::File::XML was doing an automatic character conversion when the XML was generated) 19:51 kados *nod* 19:51 gmcharlt it's bulkmarcimport only, for now 19:50 gmcharlt yes -- I revived the fMARC8toUTF8 functin that someone (thd?) had started 19:50 kados gmcharlt: so you convert to NFC before import? 19:49 kados Web Browser section 19:48 kados is as good a place as any 19:48 kados http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=encodingscratchpad 19:48 kados it'd be good to document that 19:48 kados cool 19:48 kados I always check with safari 19:48 gmcharlt hence why NFC helps 19:48 gmcharlt yeah, ran into something saying the Arial does not handle characters with decomposed diacritics correctly 19:47 kados but maybe your NFC fixes that ... 19:47 kados for certain fonts 19:47 kados y'know, I think there's a problem with firefox on OSX 19:46 kados FWIW 19:46 kados in Record.pm 19:46 kados _entity_encode 19:46 gmcharlt that gets the german example displaying in Firefox correctly 19:46 kados Record.pm maybe? 19:46 kados did you find that bit of code .../me can't remember where I hid it :-) 19:46 kados oh, interesting 19:45 gmcharlt basically, forcing use of NFC 19:45 kados gmcharlt: what was the trick? 19:45 kados fbcit: you can route it through patches@ if it's non-critical 19:45 kados awesome 19:38 gmcharlt kados: now have bulkmarcimport.pl converting from MARC-8 to UTF-8 correctly 19:37 fbcit kados: I added a note to README.debian you want the patch direct? 19:35 kados s/bib/big/ 19:30 kados the cpan version isn't compatible with debian etch's version fo libxlm2 (C) 19:30 kados because they are compatible 19:30 kados basically, you want to run the package maintainer's versions of libxlm2 and libxxml-libxlm-perl (and associated) 19:29 kados someome oughta fix it :-) 19:29 kados libxml is really a problem! 19:29 kados I should add anote to the install doc 19:29 kados that's gonna be problematic 19:29 fbcit yup 19:28 fbcit ok 19:28 fbcit using 'dpkg --set-selections < install_misc/debian.packages' 19:27 fbcit E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) 19:27 fbcit libxml-simple-perl 19:27 fbcit libxml-libxslt-perl 19:27 fbcit libxml-libxml-perl 19:27 fbcit libxml-sax-perl 19:27 fbcit Errors were encountered while processing: 19:27 fbcit kados 19:27 fbcit hrmm 19:14 gmcharlt fbcit: should work as long as you haven't been playing with timestamps in your production tree 18:56 fbcit kados: is there a way to get apt-get to tell what has been installed? 18:53 kados hehe 18:53 fbcit before beginning 18:52 fbcit I'm mainly wanting to get on with my production install while keeping up with changes 18:51 fbcit right :-) 18:51 kados long-term of course, we want to be all fancy, back up the user's install, warn them, force them to sign in blood before upgrading, etc. :-) 18:51 kados ie, make a change and see if it overwrites the file 18:51 kados if it overwrites the files 18:51 kados it would be worth testing though 18:50 kados install tree I mean 18:50 kados so long as you haven't modifed any files in the tree 18:50 kados yea 18:49 fbcit ie non-git 18:49 fbcit is updating just a matter of running installer again w/same options? 18:49 fbcit gmcharlt: if I put Koha 3 into production w/installer->standard 17:11 kados opac-advsearch.tmpl 17:11 kados oops 17:11 owen Results? 17:11 kados so basically it's just a matter of skinning opac-results.tmpl 17:10 kados even better 17:10 owen A simplified one for the general public, and a complex one for librarians and die-hards 17:10 kados (traditional woudl have boolean, all the subtype limits, etc.) 17:09 kados one 'clean' and one 'traditional' 17:09 kados maybe what we should do is have two separate templates 17:09 kados owen: I'm thinking a mix between worldcat.org and google.com 's advanced searches 17:07 kados owen: sure 17:07 owen I thought sometime we ought to talk in detail about the advanced search form. 17:06 owen A timeless classic. 17:05 kados owen: working on 670 today 17:05 kados hey owen 17:05 kados hehe 17:04 fbcit and lunch. 17:04 fbcit NZanalyse has some serious problems methinks. 17:03 fbcit a NoZebra title search on 'Alexander the Great (NF)' results in a search limited by non-fiction... 16:59 gmcharlt owen: no, just can't tear ourselves away :) 16:56 owen So I'm not the only one thinking about Koha today? :) 16:55 gmcharlt hi owen 16:54 fbcit Merry Christmas Eve owen 16:49 owen Merry Christmas Eve, #koha 16:44 kados that's why we switched to zebra :-) 16:44 kados if that's any consolation :-) 16:44 kados nozebra searching is supposed to suck ... 16:43 fbcit :( 16:43 kados it's configurable 16:43 fbcit kados: are there a fixed number and nomenclature of zebra keywords? 16:37 gmcharlt you're welcome 16:37 fbcit gmcharlt: tnx that does exactly what I wanted it to 16:34 fbcit even 16:34 fbcit I'm looking for the equiv of sed -n -e '/foo/p' /foobar.txt 16:34 fbcit I'm looking for the equiv of sed -n -e '/foo/p /foobar.txt' 16:34 fbcit I think that's it 16:34 fbcit I'm looking for the equiv of sed -n -e '/foo/p' 16:34 fbcit right 16:33 gmcharlt but note that this should never appear in production code -- according to man perlvar, it causes a performance penalty 16:33 gmcharlt fbcit: you could use $& to see what was matched 16:31 fbcit specifically that is 16:31 fbcit yes 16:30 fbcit ie something like http://www.regexbuddy.com/ 16:30 gmcharlt i.e., what string it's matching? 16:29 fbcit ie when I apply $foo =~ /[ ,].*$/ what is the regex returning for any given $foo 16:29 gmcharlt fbcit: sorry, not understanding -- so you have a regex, and you want to test it -- throwaway script? 16:28 fbcit results 16:28 gmcharlt fbcit: test regexes for what? 16:24 fbcit can anyone recommend a quick and accurate way to test regex's before hand? 16:05 gmcharlt morning fbcit -- got the e-mail, thanks 16:05 fbcit I sent you an email about libxslt 16:05 fbcit morning gmcharlt 15:06 kados hey galen 15:06 arsenic 'morning gmcharlt 15:06 gmcharlt good morning #koha 15:02 fbcit and I have not been able to get the activeperl version to work under strawberry 15:01 fbcit seems nobody has XML::LibXSLT running under strawberry 15:00 fbcit libxslt 15:00 fbcit one is a real challenge 15:00 fbcit arsenic_: there lack maybe 4 deps of having it up 14:53 kados morning all 14:22 arsenic fcbit: How goes the windows' port? 14:14 fbcit morning arsenic 14:11 fbcit kados ping 13:36 arsenic hi fcbit! 13:35 fbcit g'morning koha 12:48 arsenic good morning!
