00:03 * wizzyrea   votes for Richard Ayoade
00:04 wizzyrea     but they'll getsomeone less known and hipper.
00:05 wizzyrea     your stunned silence either means I'm out of my mind or brilliant.
00:05 gmcharlt     :)
00:05 * gmcharlt   has the wild idea of ... Catherine Tate
00:05 wizzyrea     oh I LOVE THAT too
00:05 wizzyrea     or, we bring back the doctor's daughter
00:06 wizzyrea     :P
00:06 gmcharlt     indeed
00:06 gmcharlt     (and speaking of relatives, whatever happened to Susan?)
00:06 wizzyrea     goooood question.
00:06 wizzyrea     we've got half timelords all over the place.
00:07 gmcharlt     I've been reading some speculation that John Hurt will be playing the regeneration of the Doctor active during the Time War
00:07 wizzyrea     *nod* that would be weird.
00:07 wizzyrea     to me anyway
00:07 gmcharlt     which if they show that, may also answer things like my question about Susan
00:07 wizzyrea     oh true.
00:07 gmcharlt     now for a loaded question
00:07 gmcharlt     who should be the next showrunner?
00:08 wizzyrea     i wasn't SO keen on matt smith
00:08 wizzyrea     oh man, idk. I could take or leave moffitt tbh
00:09 * gmcharlt   can just leave Moffatt
00:10 gmcharlt     or rather, I'd be perfectly happen if he went back to just writing a couple cool episodes each series
00:12 wizzyrea     *nod*
00:12 wizzyrea     I thought this last half of this season was really quite weak
00:13 wizzyrea     the akhaten one was alright
00:13 wizzyrea     and the one with the pseudo ghost
00:13 wizzyrea     I don't even remember most of the first half, how sad is that.
00:14 wizzyrea     it's not like amy pond running about with hash marks all over herself from counting silences
00:14 wizzyrea     that was memorable.
00:15 gmcharlt     *nod*
00:17 wizzyrea     or Rose Tyler standing in the middle of the road with a gigantic gun. That was memorable.
00:17 wizzyrea     Or Donna with the bug on her back.
00:17 wizzyrea     or the adipose one... shudder
00:17 wizzyrea     I could go one.
00:17 wizzyrea     on.
00:25 gmcharlt     :)
02:24 jcamins      packages++ # easiest upgrade ever, seriously.
02:27 jcamins      I could probably run an upgrade at 11am on a Thursday (busiest time for the maximum number of libraries), and no one would notice.
02:27 jcamins      Not that I would, but talk about pleasantly painless. :D
02:31 gmcharlt     jcamins: that's a powerful invocation of Murphy you started, just now ;)
02:39 jcamins      gmcharlt: lol
02:39 jcamins      I threw salt over my shoulder, so I should be safe.
02:40 jcamins      Well, drat.
02:41 jcamins      I should pushed several hundred unnecessary branches to my github.
02:41 jcamins      So much for keeping it neat and tidy...
02:41 jcamins      I guess if I've already muddled things, I might as well just push all the tags, too.
02:46 jcamins      Wow. I have some weird tag names.
02:53 wizzyrea     lots with swear words?
02:53 wizzyrea     because if my repo was public, that's what you'd see :P
02:53 wizzyrea     lots of branches with swear words.
03:00 jcamins      wizzyrea: hehe.
03:00 jcamins      No, actually.
03:00 jcamins      Though I do have a couple "notspecialanymore"
03:00 wizzyrea     koha-notspecialanymore :( :(
03:00 jcamins      And a couple where I had the syntax wrong so the tag has a commit hash as a name.
03:00 wizzyrea     ewps

08:07 drojf        hi kenza! welcome to #koha
08:07 kf           hi kenza
08:07 kf           hope you have a good time working on koha :)
08:09 wizzyrea     Hi kenza :
08:09 wizzyrea     :)
08:09 wizzyrea     we will try to make it fun ^.^
08:10 marcelr      welcome kenza
08:27 Buddhist     hello! Is this the place to discuss things on using Koha?
08:28 kf           yes it is
08:28 kf           hi Buddhist
08:28 slef         Buddhist: it's one possibility. Others are listed on the website.
08:28 slef         hi kenza
08:28 Buddhist     hello!
08:30 Buddhist     The thing is, I got some question marks about marc-data, I have adapted the 952 fields and it shows up correctly (after import), but I can't figure out whether KOha allows me to input a classification overview.
08:30 slef         Buddhist: what sort of classification overview?
08:31 Buddhist     (we use a 'self-made' classification: example 253 - Buddhist in China 254 Buddhist in Japan... is that possbile to be reflected in koha?
08:31 Buddhist     The solution at this moment is to 'key in' in every item this 253 - Buddhist in China... sounds like a tedious job.
08:32 kf           Buddhist: hmm there was once a feature that might do what you want
08:32 Buddhist     I wondered whether that can be avoided (using ccodes or loc?)
08:32 kf           some kind of hierarchical browsing the classification?
08:32 kf           or do you just want to make it easier to type them in?
08:32 Buddhist     both please! :)
08:32 kf           you could define a new authorized value and link it to the item field you use
08:33 Buddhist     before i do that, I wanted to check with you that there is no option in koha made for this purpose (anymore?)
08:34 kf           there was a start made here I think: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Opac_browse_feature
08:34 Buddhist     since I don't make use of ccodes, is it wise to use the ccode for this purpose?
08:34 kf           you could
08:35 kf           they get used for all kinds fo things :) classification would probably be a good one
08:35 kf           i think without programming the browse feature won't be useful - it's been not in use for a while I think and never left experimental status
08:36 Buddhist     hm....
08:37 Buddhist     ok! and is it possible for koha to aggregrate multiple ccodes into one 'bigger' section? let's say ccode 253 Buddhist in country A until ccode 259 Buddhist in Country Z, aggregrate them into 253-259 Buddhist in specific country
08:37 Buddhist     BTW: I am very happy with the shelf browser... that is really cool
08:39 kf           Buddhist: hm not sure I understand what you want to do
08:40 kf           welcome back kenza :)
08:40 Buddhist     It more about showing the user 'relevant' sections of the library
08:40 kf           Buddhist: you can make collections searchable in advanced search
08:40 kf           like the itemtypes - with checkboxes
08:41 kf           so the user could check one or more to search for at once
08:41 Buddhist     ah....
08:41 Buddhist     advanced search
08:41 kf           i think you can also construct a html page
08:41 kf           with links that look for more than one code
08:41 kf           search links... not perfect, but maybe might serve your purpose?
08:42 Buddhist     yes.. that would do!
08:42 Buddhist     is there also a way to input those ccodes all at once instead of using the web application (adding one by one)
08:43 kf           if you are good with sql you could add them to the right table
08:43 Buddhist     so need to peek in SQL...hm...
08:44 kf           authori[z|s]ed_values or similar
08:44 kf           i have done it in the past when I had a long list
08:44 kf           in general youshouldn't do that to Koha.. but for that table it should be pretty save to do
08:45 kf           if you are using ccodes or authorized values in general
08:45 kf           you should make sure you use good codes
08:45 Buddhist     also a quick way of adding the 'right' ccode to the right biblio? or do I really need to do this 1 by 1
08:45 kf           to get the search results you want later on - no hyphens - or spaces, best only use short codes made of numbers/letters
08:45 kf           there is a batch item edit feature
08:46 kf           if you can get a list of the barcodes/items you can do it that way
08:46 Buddhist     in the past (we are migrating now) they have used 942 to input this classification (e.g. =942  \\$k190-195 Islam$a190 Islam).
08:47 Buddhist     I will use 3 numerical numbers as code... thanks for the tip
08:47 Buddhist     ah.. batch item edit...let's see
08:54 Buddhist     thank you kf, got it, just watch a youtube explanations by bywaters..they are pretty helpful with those vids!
08:57 Buddhist     one more question: I am using marcedit to correct the item fields 952. However, I need to copy from another field some data, let's say "942a 417 Ajahn Chah" to a 952c, but I only want 417, not the text. Is there a clever way?
08:59 Buddhist     .........
09:01 * Buddhist   slaps kf around a bit with a large fishbot
09:01 kf           huh?
09:02 kf           guess i missed the joke?
09:02 Buddhist     haha
09:02 Buddhist     sorry about that.
09:02 wizzyrea     hm yea we don't do much trout slapping round here
09:02 Buddhist     didn't know how to get some attention.
09:02 Buddhist     haha
09:02 Buddhist     tut mir leid!
09:02 kf           Buddhist: I am at work - so sometimes i have to pay attention to other things ;)
09:02 kf           not sure how you can do that with marcedit - sorry
09:03 Buddhist     ok.....
09:04 Buddhist     anyone that knows how to copy partial fieldata form one subfield to another in a marc-record? (or delete parts of subfield with multiple records....)
09:06 kf           Buddhist: where are you located btw?
09:06 Buddhist     near Hemel Hempstead (UK)
09:06 kf           ah, was wondering about the German :)
09:06 Buddhist     haha... ik ben een nederlander
09:06 * kf         is German
09:07 Buddhist     I figured... :)
09:07 kf           hm h
09:07 Buddhist     was just playing with the whois/query and.....trout slapping...
09:07 kf           ah
09:08 kf           I think some people would say you could write a script to do that
09:08 kf           but there might also be a way in marcedit - i just don't know it
09:08 kf           not sure if there is a marcedit mailing list?
09:08 Buddhist     I am skilled in excel..so I might do some exporting importing thing....
09:08 Buddhist     good point! I shall look foir a marcedit mailing list....
09:08 * dcook      is intrigued
09:08 dcook        What are you trying to do, Buddhist?
09:10 Buddhist     hello...dcook
09:10 dcook        hi...
09:10 Buddhist     i have a subfield in our marcdata that says for instance "417 Ajahn Chah".
09:10 Buddhist     but I don't want the text bit, "Ajahn Chah", I want only 417
09:11 Buddhist     I just wondered how to 'delete' partial data
09:11 Buddhist     (I have few thousand records)
09:12 dcook        Hmm, marcedit/writing a script is probably your best bet
09:12 dcook        Just out of curiosity, why are you wanting to do this?
09:12 Buddhist     well....'sigh'....
09:13 Buddhist     the librarian here has imported marcdata in the koha system using for instance z39.50. And added this classification scheme of ours (not standard). So for instance in 942a "417 Ajahn Chah".
09:13 Buddhist     But never added a 'call number'
09:14 Buddhist     so... our call number is actually 417.
09:14 Buddhist     so I want to copy this field 942a to 952o, but inly the decimal, not texts
09:15 Buddhist     (BECAUSE there are 'also' typos.... in many many many records...
09:15 Buddhist     *sigh*
09:15 Buddhist     (does that make sense?)
09:15 dcook        Mmm, sort of.
09:16 dcook        Human error is no fun, but I'm not sure that I understand what you're trying to do classification-wise overall.
09:16 Buddhist     ...
09:16 Buddhist     ah...
09:17 dcook        But, in terms of your immediate goals, maybe try Marcedit. I've used it before for wrangling non-standard data, and it works pretty well.
09:17 Buddhist     first of all i need the 'correct' call number....therefore in each marc record the librarian has tuck it away in 942. so I just need to copy it out.
09:17 Buddhist     the second 'challenge' was to understand how to be able to setup our selfmade classification scheme into koha.
09:18 Buddhist     before yo uarrived, i was suggested using for instance authorised values...I might use ccodes
09:18 kf           hm Buddhist - didn't ask you if you also have callnumbers for your items
09:19 Buddhist     ..?
09:19 kf           individual call numbers separate from the classification
09:19 Buddhist     well..they don't do that here...
09:19 Buddhist     all the books here are stickerd on their spine with the 'shelf location number', 417 for instance.
09:19 Buddhist     so our 'call' number is not unique (small library)
09:20 dcook        From the sound of it, you're going to still have the same problem with "417" as you will with "417 Ajahn Chah"
09:20 Buddhist     basically we need to direct the patrons to the 'right shelf'..
09:20 * dcook      waves to francharb
09:20 Buddhist     ...?
09:20 Buddhist     what problem?
09:20 wahanui      problem is, like, it's human beings doing it. Rebuild your indexes
09:21 Buddhist     ..more confused....
09:21 Buddhist     ??
09:21 kf           Buddhist: I was wondering if that info shoudl go rather into the field for itemcallnumber - I think o or p
09:21 kf           but the search options for collection codes are a bit nicer
09:21 Buddhist     hm..
09:22 Buddhist     the thing about 952 o or p is that it is free input, so i prefer it to be short, like 3 decimal,417.
09:22 Buddhist     I don't want them to type 417 Ajahn Chah .....
09:22 francharb    hi dcook
09:22 Buddhist     then.... I can use for instance the ccodes .. where they can 'choose from a list' 417 Ajahn Chah
09:23 Buddhist     saves typos.
09:28 vfernandes   hi :)
09:33 gerundio     hey vfernandes :)
09:34 vfernandes   how are you gerundio?
09:35 gerundio     well thanks, you?
09:35 gerundio     did you see someone commented on bug 7973 saying it doesn't work in some cases?
09:35 huginn`      04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=7973 new feature, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, RESOLVED FIXED, Allow for new type of LDAP authentication
09:36 gerundio     I've already asked for feedback on something, but still waiting for an answer
09:37 vfernandes   yes... i've tested with the two forms (anonymous bind and default bind) and everything worked
09:38 kf           somoen commented it might be an ldap configuration thing
09:41 vfernandes   ldap can be configured to authorize or not the anonymous bind and search
09:42 vfernandes   but I've tested without anonymous search and everything worked fine
09:44 kf           i know nothing about ldap - but hoping you can figure out what's going on :)
09:49 vfernandes   I'm pretty sure it is a configuration issue but let's see :P

10:33 dcook        Mmm, pumpkin risotto...
10:34 kf           what brought that up?
10:35 dcook        My partner just brought some to me :)
10:36 kf           aah
10:36 kf           enjoy :)
10:37 dcook        Thanks :). I was munching on chocolate but this is...yummm
10:37 dcook        Now all I need is a new monitor and either to move my tower or get longer headphones...\
10:38 * kf         offerst to take the chocolate off of your hands...
10:38 dcook        It has whole hazelnuts in it :D
10:39 kf           yum
10:39 dcook        I grabbed a couple bars on the way home from work...*shameface*
10:39 wizzyrea     nomnomnomnomnom
10:39 wizzyrea     no shame in chocolate, it gives you necessary magnesium :P
10:39 wizzyrea     and makes you feel happy.
10:39 dcook        I read that as magnetism for a moment ;)
10:39 wizzyrea     and I'm sure it doesn't hurt your animal magnetism either.
10:40 dcook        I think I did get extra kisses because of the chocolate *nod* *nod*
10:40 dcook        Chocolate definitely helps with the happy
10:40 dcook        I'm trying out these MOOC things, so I figured I could use some extra happy...
10:41 tweetbot     [off] twitter: @kohails: "#KohaILS  Newsletter communautaire de Koha de mai 2013 http://t.co/CsPyydGUEN"
10:44 kf           what kind of MOOC are you trying out? :)
10:45 dcook        This systematic program design one from UBC (the last uni I went to) on Coursera.
10:45 dcook        While I can patch Koha just fine and do a reasonably good job with my own programs, I figure it wouldn't hurt to learn the basics, since I sort of just jumped into programming...
10:46 kf           :)
10:46 kf           that's why I do the distance study... trying to get some basics
10:47 kf           instead of only learning by trial and error :)
10:47 dcook        Exactly :)
10:48 dcook        I suppose I'm not entirely sold on the online classes yet though. I haven't found myself very motivated to do these courses, when I could just start experimenting with the technologies...
10:59 wizzyrea     everybody hit koha-community.org at once... go!
10:59 wizzyrea     (then tell me if it's fast or slow)
11:00 * wizzyrea   likes how this is looking
11:00 dcook        Mmm 5-6 seconds to load?
11:00 dcook        Maybe faster
11:00 wizzyrea     ping it please?
11:00 wizzyrea     (what's the address)
11:01 kf           wizzyrea: fast for me! :)
11:01 kf           like really fast even
11:01 wizzyrea     woot!
11:01 wizzyrea     i like fast!
11:01 kf           :)
11:01 kf           looks quite good to me
11:01 wizzyrea     and not overwhelmed, though probably only two of you at once :P
11:02 dcook        Probably :p
11:02 wizzyrea     now don't go killing it while I'm sleeping
11:02 kf           well we canclick fast tho
11:02 * dcook      does all the clicks
11:02 kf           we will try
11:02 wizzyrea     hehe - LOL
11:02 dcook        I just accidentally closed Chromium as well, so everything I was doing was closed anyway..
11:03 dcook        Where is it hosted?
11:03 wizzyrea     linode
11:03 kf           wizzyrea++ btw
11:03 jcamins      papa++
11:03 wizzyrea     papa++ because... it's papa.
11:04 wizzyrea     that's looking nice and fast actually
11:04 wizzyrea     caching++
11:04 kf           hm who is papa? :)
11:04 wizzyrea     srdjan
11:04 kf           oh!
11:04 kf           i have been wondering about that for a while
11:04 kf           :)
11:04 dcook        wizzyrea: I also have a super slow internet connection at home :)
11:04 dcook        kf: Took me a while to figure that out as well
11:04 kf           papa++
11:05 dcook        I still don't know if I can type out that handle :p
11:05 wizzyrea     I can see that it's serving pages lickety split
11:05 dcook        Sweet :D
11:05 dcook        jcamins: Why are you awake?
11:05 dcook        Was it the mention of pumpkin risotto?
11:07 jcamins      dcook: it's 7am?
11:07 jcamins      I think.
11:07 jcamins      Is the clock wrong?
11:07 dcook        jcamins: That sounds right to me
11:07 jcamins      Ah, good.
11:07 jcamins      That's morning.
11:07 dcook        Technically :p.
11:08 jcamins      Heh.
11:08 jcamins      I guess you weren't around any of the days I was around at 5am.
11:08 dcook        I think that's usually when I'm looking at my emails on my phone in bed and dreading the trip from the bedroom to the shower.
11:08 dcook        O_O
11:09 dcook        Go to bed late and get up early? I don't know how you and kf do it.
11:09 jcamins      Hehe.
11:09 jcamins      Neither do I.
11:09 jcamins      Isn't it kind of late for you?
11:09 kf           ^^
11:09 dcook        Only 9:09
11:10 dcook        Partner has a friend over, so I'm minding my business in the study. Watching programming videos rather than doing anything productive...
11:10 wizzyrea     that probably qualifies as productive
11:10 wizzyrea     for some value of productive
11:10 dcook        I'm sure it'll be useful once we get past the difference between strings and numbers...
11:10 wizzyrea     ok to bed with me
11:10 wizzyrea     oh dear.
11:11 dcook        I said that I wanted to learn the basics...
11:11 dcook        :S
11:11 wizzyrea     don't kill koha-community.org while I'm sleeping.
11:11 dcook        Well, I can't promise because I don't know how long you'll be sleeping :p
11:11 wizzyrea     dcook - pm me the name of the thinger you're lookin at eh?
11:11 dcook        Sure
11:11 wizzyrea     from now until...... later
11:11 wizzyrea     7 or so hours :P
11:12 dcook        Like a reasonable person ;)
11:12 wizzyrea     I know you can do it!
11:12 wizzyrea     pft
11:12 wizzyrea     like a person with small people
11:13 dcook        Small people?
11:13 dcook        There's more than one?
11:14 dcook        Anyway, night, wizzyrea :)
11:18 kf           khall: around?
11:18 khall        good morning!
11:18 kf           aah
11:18 kf           magic :)
11:18 kf           good morning
11:19 khall        heh, very lucky timing!
11:19 khall        what's up?
11:19 kf           just looking at your rfc
11:19 kf           and wondering at a couple of things :)
11:19 khall        sure!
11:19 kf           and i left you a note on the bug - asking if maybe you could send a link to an updated page to the mailing list?
11:20 khall        do you remember the bug number off hand?
11:20 kf           hmm
11:20 kf           it was... the maxfine thing
11:20 kf           i am not good with numbers
11:20 kf           0129
11:20 kf           9129
11:23 khall        df: comment 32 pretty much sums it up. I received 0 comments from the RFC writeup.
11:23 khall        kf that is ^
11:23 jcamins      I'm not even sure what RFC you're talking about?
11:23 khall        the accounts/fines rewrite
11:23 kf           khall: probably not a lot of people saw it :)
11:24 kf           i missed it totally until running into the bug - that's why I wondered if maybe a mail to the mailing list would help
11:24 khall        I sent a mail about it to the dev list. I don't think I received either any replies to the email, or any edits to the RFC
11:24 * dcook      waves to nengard
11:24 kf           ah
11:24 jcamins      Ah.
11:24 kf           sorry, i must have missed it
11:25 jcamins      Right. It looked fine to me.
11:25 khall        kf: did you find the rfc? http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Accounting_system_rewrite
11:25 kf           i did
11:26 kf           looking at the printout right now :)
11:26 kf           so I can draw on it
11:26 khall        I'll go ahead and fix it now
11:26 kf           khall: cool
11:26 kf           where to best leave my notes?
11:26 khall        One thing I promise is the rewrite will be rock solid with a full suite of unit tests.
11:27 khall        df: you can just put them on the wiki with your nick appended.
11:27 dcook        \o/
11:27 khall        kf, that is. It's too early to be typing
11:27 kf           :)
11:27 kf           that's ok
11:27 kf           tell me when you updated the wiki page?
11:27 kf           I don't want to interfere
11:28 khall        yeah, one moment
11:30 khall        kf: done
11:30 kf           khall: one big request i have is to stop the misuse of the description column
11:31 kf           not only for selecting fines, but also for storing information for display there
11:31 kf           we actually write payment thanks there... for example. which is horrible
11:31 kf           because it's not translatable
11:31 khall        kf: I completely agree
11:31 kf           and the user sees it in the opac
11:31 kf           and i have ot use evil javascript to make it a little better
11:32 jcamins      khall: The one concern I have is that the structure follow generally-acceptable accounting practices. Have you run this by a CPA? (and preferably their equivalent in a Civl Law country as well?) Because that seems like it would be really important.
11:32 khall        all the new tables have primary keys. Fees in one table, payments in one table, a fee_payments join table, and an account offsets table
11:32 khall        jcamins: that's a good idea.
11:33 kf           i think that was what they did for koha 1.0
11:33 kf           iirc
11:33 khall        I believe we have a CPA on staff, so I can ask her!
11:33 kf           it might be worth checking what information we need to keep to abide by laws and the like
11:33 jcamins      khall: yeah, I think so.
11:33 jcamins      kf: ^^ that was for you
11:33 kf           khall: do you just want to note on the wiki page itself?
11:34 khall        df: yeah, just mark up whatever you want, or just add the comments to the top or bottom of the page.
11:34 khall        that way we can keep everything centralized
11:44 nengard      hi dcook
11:44 nengard      and all
11:46 dcook        hey ya nengard
11:46 dcook        I forget sometimes that #koha has a whole 'nother life at a different time of day
11:46 nengard      hehe
11:47 dcook        On that note, I think it's time for bed
11:47 kf           good night dcook
11:47 kf           khall: i will put it under the headings if that's ok
11:47 dcook        Bonne nuit, tout le monde. I'll be back in...11.25 hours
11:47 khall        kf: that's fine. thanks!
11:48 jcamins      nengard: re: your e-mail: I'm not comfortable with that change.
11:49 jcamins      What I'd say is add the suggested changes under the heading "If you are using packages, run..."
11:49 nengard      so it's only specific for pacakge sites
11:49 jcamins      Right.
11:49 nengard      see .. that's why I asked :)
11:50 nengard      thanks!!
11:50 jcamins      And I always encourage people to use packages, but if you're using packages  you're a lot less likely to have gotten your system into that situation.

11:56 nengard      good stuff
11:56 nengard      thanks
11:56 kf           khall: done - look for KF :)
11:59 kf           or how do i create a link to my user?
12:00 kf           hm no magnuse
12:03 jcamins      kf: if you mean on the wiki, you put it in square brackets, I think.
12:03 kf           hm [] didn't work
12:04 * kf         gives up

12:05 kf           hm that doesn't look right

12:06 nengard      heh
12:08 jcamins      There is something about Metro that makes it impossible for me to remember where it is.
12:08 jcamins      It is somewhere in the vicinity of Union Square, but no matter how many times I go to events there, I forget exactly where.
12:11 kf           jcamins: I did
12:19 kf           jcamins++
12:21 jcamins      Figured it out?
12:26 kf           yeah
12:26 kf           now the only question that remains is if my comments made any sense:)
12:47 tcohen       morning #koha
12:48 kf           hi tcohen :)
12:49 kf           tcohen: I've got a request :)
12:49 tcohen       :)
12:49 kf           bug 10120
12:49 huginn`      04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=10120 major, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, Pushed to Master , Fine recalculation on return needs to be a system preference
12:49 kf           could you consider this for 3.12.x?
12:50 kf           it missed 3.12 because it has a string change (new pref)
12:50 kf           but the change itself is pretty clear, just adding an if construct in the right place
12:54 tcohen       i'll take a look
12:58 kf           tcohen: thanks :)
13:02 tcohen       #koha, are there experiences of out-of-schedule releases?
13:02 tcohen       like "we wan't packages to work on wheeze"
13:12 tcohen       is it possible to tell marc::lint not to warn about $9 fields?
13:12 tcohen       besides that, the marc record checker plugin is nice
13:15 tcohen       gmcharlt. kf: 10120 add a new syspref
13:15 tcohen       how should I handle the DB numbering?
13:45 kf           tcohen: hm not sure, i would maybe check git for how it's been done in the past
13:47 tcohen       kf: acq keeps telling me I have to define a budget
13:48 tcohen       did u see that?
13:48 kf           hm not so far
13:48 kf           did yo define one?
13:48 tcohen       yes
13:48 kf           and a fund that is usable by your user?
13:48 kf           i think it might be consuing budget/fund
13:48 tcohen       oh, I should create a user
13:48 kf           oh yes
13:48 kf           for acq that's quite important
14:00 kf           tcohen: did it work
14:00 kf           ?
14:00 tcohen       yes, it worked
14:00 tcohen       i never used acq before
14:00 kf           oh good
14:00 tcohen       i'll study them from now
14:00 kf           feel free to ask me if you have any more problems :)
14:00 tcohen       its my weakest bit
14:00 kf           i know ther are not so many libraries using acq right now
14:00 tcohen       as we still don't use them
14:00 kf           we got 2 out of 11 who do
14:01 tcohen       i'll introduce 3.12 next week
14:01 tcohen       to our librarians, and focus on acq

17:24 pianohacker  ... ?
17:25 jcamins      pianohacker: Apparently if you use a Å‚ instead of a slash, weird things happen.
17:25 pianohacker  I was talking about jvr, but accidental <Compose>-/-l ?
17:26 jcamins      pianohacker: right, the reason for that was surely that I hit Å‚ instead of slash when changing windows earlier... right?
17:26 jcamins      And I don't really know how I ended up with Å‚.
17:26 pianohacker  compose key ftw
17:27 jcamins      Yeah, but my phone doesn't have one!
17:27 pianohacker  oh. wait
17:27 pianohacker  what?
17:27 jcamins      Yeah, I was on my phone.
17:27 jcamins      Weird, eh?
17:27 pianohacker  no kidding. Does irssi have builtin digraph support, like vim?
17:28 jcamins      I didn't think so, but I guess it's possible.

19:34 wahanui      it has been said that next time is in 87 years or something... ;-)
19:35 rambutan1    well, I still can change my nick to rambutan
19:35 rambutan1    can't
19:35 rambutan1    oh well
19:35 jcamins      Apparently that kick wasn't effective enough.
19:36 pianohacker  rambutan1: Do you have your nick registered? If so, you can tell nickserv to knock rambutan off the server
19:36 rambutan1    no, and in fact it is registered to somebody else, which is clearly the problem
19:36 rangi        kick only kicks you out of the channel, the nick is server wide
19:36 pianohacker  oh jeeze
19:36 jcamins      Oh, that's because kick is for channels.

19:47 Viktor       A little embarrassed - did I break something with the staff interface translation? http://translate.koha-community.org/sv/312/
19:47 cait1        Viktor: hm have you uploaded a new file?
19:48 Viktor       cait1 Yep. Just tried to upload the first delivery from our translators of the staff interface.
19:48 Viktor       They did the opac just fine.
19:49 cait1        h
19:49 cait1        it looks fine when you go to the page
19:49 cait1        just the counter seems off?
19:49 cait1        oh
19:50 cait1        it went ot german when i logged in.. *sigh*
19:50 cait1        Viktor: did yo uoverwrite or merge on  upload?
19:50 cait1        it looks like the file is not there, maybe upload it again?
19:50 Viktor       I did an overwrite.
19:50 cait1        hm that usually works fine
19:51 Viktor       Ok - I'll give it a try. Thanks
19:53 Viktor       Uploading (slowly) just now.
19:54 Viktor       The translators had a question I couldn't answer myself. Do you translate the full string when it's formated like: "\"Basic Parameters\" is where library policies are set and governed. It is best to set your system preferences a..."
19:55 cait1        try to get rid of the \
19:55 cait1        they create problems
19:55 Viktor       Aha!
19:55 cait1        better use single quotes in that case or no quotes
19:55 cait1        we had a mailing list mail about that i answered tody
19:58 bgkriegel    Viktor, there is a problem in the translate server. I will look at that,
19:59 Viktor       Thanks bgkriegel !
19:59 Viktor       Thanks cait1
20:00 Viktor       I've read up on the mail from today. I've told the translators to keep everything as it is, but if I understand correctly they should loose the newlines if they see any?
20:01 cait1        i think yes
20:01 cait1        pootle or the translation scripts? add an extra \ whatever you do
20:01 cait1        and that way you end up with \\n which shows as \n
20:02 Viktor       They translate offline.
20:02 Viktor       So If they se a \n  they should translate it to \\n?
20:02 cait1        yeah i have manually edited the po files in the past and then it was right I think, but probably safer to try and avoid
20:03 cait1        no actually it should be \n
20:03 cait1        but somehow somehwere an additional \ gets added
20:03 cait1        i think file a bug for those you find
20:03 tcohen       hi rangi
20:03 Viktor       Aha - So \\n should be translated to \n instead? :)
20:04 tcohen       PS1='\[\033[01;32m\]\u@\h\[\033[00m\]:\[\033[01;34m\]\W\[\033[00m\]$(__git_ps1 "\[\e[1;33m\](%s)\[\e[0m\]")$ '

20:17 jvr          How do I solve this problem
20:17 jvr          Last seen before (yyyy-mm-dd): text
20:17 jvr          the text box is missing
20:17 cait1        first question?

20:18 jvr          reports
20:18 cait1        so how does the sql look like?
20:18 cait1        which version of koha are oyu using?
20:18 jvr          until last year it was functioning ok
20:19 jvr          SELECT b.title, i.barcode, i.itemcallnumber,        IF(i.onloan IS NULL, '', 'checked out') AS onloan  FROM biblio b  LEFT JOIN items i USING (biblionumber)  WHERE datelastseen < <<Last seen before (yyyy-mm-dd)>>                   AND i.homebranch=<<Home branch|branches>>  ORDER BY datelastseen DESC, i.itemcallnumber ASC
20:19 jvr          3.8 and 3.10
20:19 wahanui      3.8 and 3.10 are going along ok - I don't know if there's all that much to say about it
20:20 jcamins      wahanui: forget 3.8 and 3.10
20:20 wahanui      jcamins: I forgot 3.8 and 3.10
20:20 cait1        hm in 3.10 that might work: <last seen|date>>
20:21 cait1        <<last seen...
20:22 jvr          change sql to |date and it works on 3.8
20:22 wahanui      jvr: that doesn't look right

21:36 cait1        good night all

21:48 rangi        was just the xisbn test
22:20 mtj          hi peeps, i need some koha advice on a SCO bug...
22:21 mtj          is there any reason why a library would want to stop a patron from returning an item (via the SCO) if that patron has a BLOCKED account?
22:23 mtj          i ask, as i have experienced this behaviour in master
22:23 mtj          afaict, this is a bug that needs fixing
22:24 mtj          …is there a possibility that someone has designed this behaviour, as a intended feature?
22:25 mtj          .
22:25 mtj          good news - the bug is pretty easy to reproduce
22:26 mtj          1/ issue an item
22:26 mtj          2/ issue another item, with a datedue set to 1 year ago
22:27 mtj          3/ attempt to return either item, via the sco
22:28 wizzyrea     yes, it's intended - especially if the item is missing
22:28 wizzyrea     at least, for one library's value of intended
22:28 wizzyrea     people would squeal, I think, if that went away
22:29 mtj          hmmm, ok...
22:30 mtj          so, some syspref would need to be created to override that behaviour
22:30 wizzyrea     I guess the thinking is that the staff want tto talk to people that have books that long overdue?
22:30 mtj          'SCOAllowReturnIfPatronBlocked'
22:31 mtj          yeah, i totally get that too
22:32 mtj          we've got a tricky situ with a library whos librarian works 1 day a week...
22:33 mtj          some punters who have a $1  fine, cant return their items via SCO
22:33 eythian      hi
22:33 mtj          so they leave their items in the dropbox
22:33 mtj          heya eythian
22:33 wahanui      i heard eythian was great at jokes. That everyone else misses them isn't his problem.
22:34 mtj          …but the dropboxed items dont get scanned for x days, and accure fines
22:35 wizzyrea     sounds like more of a bug with dropbox mode
22:35 mtj          ...so this library wants to allow people to return items via the SCO, even if they have fines, etc
22:35 wizzyrea     iirc you can only set dropbox mode for 1 day back?
22:35 mtj          hmm, thats a good point wiz
22:35 wizzyrea     it would be highly desirable to have dropbox mode be configurable
22:36 * wizzyrea   can relate to libraries only open a few days a week
22:37 eythian      it would get confusing when they're open, say, two days.
22:37 eythian      that might be an unusual case though
22:37 mtj          hmm, we might have to go for the quifkfix here, and add a syspref to allow this SCO behaviour
22:38 wizzyrea     if dropbox mode is configurable, they can set the number of days, preferably on the return screen
22:38 wizzyrea     "library was last open X days ago"
22:38 wizzyrea     or something
22:38 wahanui      hmmm... something is fishy
22:38 wizzyrea     it's your mom, wahanui.
22:38 wahanui      wizzyrea: excuse me?
22:38 wizzyrea     you heard me
22:39 wizzyrea     or tell dbm the last date you were open
22:39 gmcharlt     if wahanui is an infobot, does that make its mom a databot?
22:39 * wizzyrea   giggles
22:39 wizzyrea     @quote add <gmcharlt> if wahanui is an infobot, does that make it's mom a databot?
22:39 huginn`      wizzyrea: The operation succeeded.  Quote #255 added.
22:39 wizzyrea     doh rogue apostrophe
22:39 wizzyrea     curses.
22:39 gmcharlt     wizzyrea: tell, and to be fancy, deduce the likely last date open from the calendar
22:39 mtj          wizzyrea, thanks for the info - its good to have the SCO behaviour confirmed
22:40 wizzyrea     well that would be super fancy
22:40 pianohacker  if its mom is a databot, its uncle is a lorebot
22:41 wizzyrea     heheheheheh
22:44 mtj          hmm, i wonder what are the gotchas around a setting a configable $days value for dropbox?
22:45 mtj          ...people would have gotten various emails about their overdue item
22:46 wizzyrea     but no fines, which is what they're really concerned about
22:46 mtj          that would now be invalid
22:46 wizzyrea     and turn on checkin notices, they'd get an email when it's checked in
22:47 eythian      it'd be easy enough to add a note saying "if you've already returned it, those fines won't be applied" or something
22:47 wizzyrea     ^^
22:47 wizzyrea     "we are only here on Tuesday, so you can safely ignore this if your item is in the dropbox"
22:47 mtj          eythian++ yeah, good idea
22:47 wizzyrea     "if you'd like to know when we check in your items -> procedure for doing that from the opac"
22:48 mtj          obviously, the biggie is rolling back the fines...
22:49 wizzyrea     dropbox mode already does that?
22:49 wizzyrea     OR they could set a fine grace period of the max number of days
22:49 mtj          ...its been a while since ive looked at the accountlines code/tables
22:50 wizzyrea     and give up a weeks worth of fines but not annoy people
22:50 mtj          yep...
22:51 wizzyrea     so, several ways to skin that cat I think
22:51 druthb       :-O
22:51 mtj          i'll do some tests with returns, using a 7-days dropbox, and see what happens
22:52 druthb       wizzyrea is skinning cats now?
22:52 * druthb     hides Pixel
22:52 wizzyrea     hehe, no, silly.
22:52 mtj          ...would be a nice win to sort that
22:55 mtj          hey pianohacker, did your busted arm heal up ok?
23:01 pianohacker  mtj: I did have a surgery recently, but you may be thinking of someone else :)
23:22 tcohen       hi eythian
23:22 eythian      hi
23:23 tcohen       what do u think? is it worth?
23:23 pianohacker  oy vey. Firefox's XSLT processor returns the same error code for 25 separate errors...
23:25 eythian      tcohen: It might be easier if I just made a 3.12.0.1 release, rather than needing to change the release schedule.
23:25 eythian      that way it's only work for me, not everyone :)
23:25 tcohen       I agree, what can I do to help you?
23:26 eythian      probably don't need to do anything.
23:26 dcook        mtj++
23:26 dcook        mtj: You around?
23:26 mtj          dcook, yes-ish :)
23:26 eythian      wahanui: seen bgkriegel
23:26 wahanui      bgkriegel was last seen on #koha 3 hours, 28 minutes and 14 seconds ago, saying: Viktor, there is a problem in the translate server. I will look at that,  [Mon Jun  3 19:58:45 2013]
23:27 eythian      bgkriegel: about?
23:27 mtj          pianohacker, didnt you break your arm falling off your bike?
23:27 dcook        mtj: Awesome that you want to update the MARC21 fields/subfields :D. I'm sure you already know but I think rangi has already done quite a bit of that in terms of frameworks: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/MARC_frameworks
23:27 mtj          dcook, whats up?
23:27 dcook        I don't think it's quite complete but perhaps a good baseline?
23:28 mtj          yes, indeed
23:28 pianohacker  mtj: Yeah, broke some fingers falling off my bike a few years ago
23:28 pianohacker  healed perfect, thanks to having a physical therapist for a mom :)
23:29 wizzyrea     nengard - about?
23:29 bgkriegel    hi
23:29 wahanui      hola, bgkriegel
23:29 mtj          dcook, something i have recently realised… the MARC21 update-16 spec, includes all those RDA fields
23:29 dcook        Yep yep
23:30 eythian      bgkriegel: are you able to have a look into putting bug 10367 into 3.8?
23:30 huginn`      04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=10367 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, robin, Pushed to Stable , Allow packages to work on debian wheezy
23:30 eythian      err
23:30 eythian         3.10
23:30 bgkriegel    :)
23:30 dcook        That's why I'm glad that you're deciding to update the frameworks. I think they those fields should be in the default framework since they are part of the official spec
23:30 bgkriegel    ok, I''ll look asap
23:30 eythian      cheers
23:31 rangi        eythian: cjh does 3.8.x
23:31 rangi        bgkriegel does 3.10.x
23:31 eythian      rangi: yeah, it was a thinko
23:31 cjh          what did I break
23:31 mtj          dcook, yep, i think everyone agrees on that point :)
23:31 eythian      no nothing, I typed the wrong version number
23:31 dcook        mtj: Yay!
23:31 eythian      s/I.*/yet./ ;)
23:32 mtj          dcook, the next task is to update the xslt files, for those new MARC fields too
23:32 dcook        I suppose with custom XSLTs, there is no reason to change the existing XSLT or TT templates
23:32 dcook        Oh?
23:33 dcook        While I agree in theory, I'm not sure how that information should be presented. As rangi mentioned, I'm not sure anyone actually knows "why" they need RDA fields.
23:33 dcook        I've seen them in the Library of Congress catalogue, but that's about it
23:33 cjh          dcook: because RDA is a cool buzzword and koha must be fully buzzword-compliant
23:34 dcook        Well, it's not necessarily a buzzword
23:34 rangi        id make a new RDA one
23:34 rangi        xslt one
23:34 rangi        ppl can type default
23:34 dcook        It does refer to a new description 'standard' (or anti-standard) and a set of MARC changes
23:34 rangi        or rda
23:34 rangi        only for marc21
23:34 dcook        rangi: That could work
23:34 rangi        and anglophones (and germans)
23:35 rangi        lets not make the current xslt bigger and slower for fields thatn .0000001% of records will ever use
23:35 * dcook      nods
23:35 dcook        Well..
23:35 dcook        It's not that the records won't use them
23:35 dcook        It's that the people won't use them
23:35 rangi        its both
23:35 dcook        An increasing number of people are cataloguing using RDA, me thinks
23:35 rangi        yep
23:36 dcook        Especially at places like LoC and LibrariesAustralia
23:36 rangi        and in 1038 years
23:36 dcook        So if they're copy cataloguing, they're going to be getting those RDA records
23:36 rangi        they might have caught up with the amount that arent in aarc2
23:36 eythian      hello papa
23:36 rangi        no one afaik is going back through all the already catalogued stuff
23:36 eythian      papa: good work on yesterday's sign-off binge :)
23:36 dcook        Mmm, I see what you're saying
23:36 papa         well hello!
23:36 dcook        rangi: Fortunately no one is that mad?
23:36 rangi        exactly
23:36 rangi        but it does limit the usefulness
23:36 rangi        RDA for new books
23:36 rangi        is what we are saying
23:37 dcook        new books or new editions, I suppose
23:37 rangi        and only some
23:37 dcook        Mmm
23:37 rangi        depending on who you get your records from
23:37 rangi        its why without a crosswalk
23:37 dcook        But yes, I like the idea of not having the default necessarily have those RDA fields
23:37 dcook        But having an option is good
23:37 rangi        yep
23:38 rangi        i want to follow a trend that even the LOC have moved off of
23:38 rangi        tick the RDA box
23:38 dcook        Mind you, ideally, a system where librarians/sysadmins could pick and choose which fields to show in a user-friendly way would be awesome
23:38 dcook        rangi: Pretty much
23:38 dcook        There's something to be keeping up but not dwelling...
23:38 dcook        something to be said for*
23:39 dcook        Having RDA options will be great (yay mtj and bgkriegel), but I think post-MARC work will be the most valuable going forward
23:40 rangi        exactly
23:40 rangi        adn with the xslt, you can easily just type rda in the box to use the rda xslt
23:40 * dcook      nods
23:41 dcook        Yet another reason to move away from TT templates for search/detail displays...
23:41 dcook        That's more an internal/self-directed comment than anything else :p
23:41 cjh          heh
23:41 cjh          talking to yourself in public again?
23:41 dcook        Pretty much :p
23:42 dcook        Now that I think about it...
23:42 dcook        gmcharlt: Are you around?
23:42 dcook        I just remembered that there was that module maintainer idea...
23:42 dcook        I'm wondering if there are any post-MARC plans or if it's more so just on the wishlist atm
23:43 rangi        there definitely are
23:43 rangi        im hoping we head towards magnus' semantikoha
23:44 rangi        but gmcharlt has plans too
23:44 cjh          semantic koha sounds awesome
23:45 dcook        Mmm, I'd forgotten a bout semantikoha...
23:45 dcook        http://libriotech.no/blogs/semantikoha
23:46 cjh          open source ILS + open linked data = WIN
23:47 dcook        magnuse++ I quite like the way he wrote that
23:48 dcook        rangi: Awesome to hear :)
23:56 dcook        mtj: Just noticed bgkriegel's email about having a script to scrape and parse the LoC MARC sites. That's awesome!
