03:19 wizzyrea      ...we really don't ask for browser and version in bug reports do we.
03:19 wizzyrea      pity.
03:19 rangi         its there, people dont really fill it out
03:22 pianohacker   too many other fields :)
03:23 pianohacker   anyway now that I've said my piece and added a smiley to defuse it I should run away again
03:23 pianohacker   good night all
03:26 dcook         hehe
03:26 dcook         wizzyrea: Any particular one standing out to you?
03:26 * dcook       is getting reasonably good at guessing IE versions
03:26 dcook         Also compatibility mode
03:26 dcook         "So everything's broken and you're not on IE 7? Ok, you're almost certainly in compatibility view mode."
04:10 wizzyrea      heh
04:10 wizzyrea      no I just had someone ask me for a comprehensive list of IE bugs in koha
04:10 wizzyrea      where to even start.
04:11 dcook         Oh man...
04:11 dcook         Do they mean open bugs or absolutely every bug ever?
04:11 dcook         I try to include "IE" or "Internet Explorer" in the title of every IE bug I do
04:11 wizzyrea      "bugs currently bothering IE in recent versions"
04:11 wizzyrea      it's rather not specific
04:12 dcook         Hmm. Yeah, no doubt.
04:12 gmcharlt      bugs currently bothering IE...
04:12 dcook         tcohen has also been pushing a lot of IE patches recently as well
04:12 gmcharlt      can we bother IE even MORE?
04:12 dcook         hehe
04:12 dcook         Yeah, I think they mean "bugs in IE currently bothering recent versions of Koha"...
04:13 dcook         Well...
04:13 dcook         A few of them are arguably "bugs" in Koha, which modern browsers just gloss over nowadays
04:15 dcook         I think every one of my IE bugs has been pushed, except for... bug 10772 and bug 9584
04:15 huginn        04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=10772 normal, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, NEW , IE7 not loading reset-fonts-grids.css in staff client
04:15 huginn        04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=9584 normal, P5 - low, ---, dcook, Failed QA , Remove problematic IE CSS Hacks in staff client
04:15 dcook         I didn't provide a patch for the first one, and my patch for the second one was no good
04:16 dcook         (and no one has raised them as issues locally so there's been no impetus to work on them anyway)
04:16 wizzyrea      yeah, that's all fine.
04:16 wizzyrea      hm
04:16 wizzyrea      i'm looking at the latest master
04:17 wizzyrea      can anyone else reproduce that the borrower name doesn't show up on the checkout screen?
04:17 wizzyrea      screen inc.
04:17 dcook         I could probably take a look at that sure.
04:17 dcook         Which browser?
04:17 wahanui       Which browser are you using?
04:17 wizzyrea      firefox
04:17 * dcook       is juggling about a million issues at the moment, and seems to enjoy putting more and more stuff ontop of his current list
04:18 wizzyrea      I just want to know if it's me
04:18 eythian       no wahanui, which browser is <reply>If it's IE, there will be trouble.
04:18 eythian       no wahanui, \which browser is <reply>If it's IE, there will be trouble.
04:18 wahanui       i already had it that way, eythian.
04:18 wizzyrea      http://i.imgur.com/V4JWFlG.png
04:18 wizzyrea      see how the borrower name is just ()
04:18 wizzyrea      both in the sidebar and next to "checking out to"
04:19 * wizzyrea    tries renewing the borrower
04:19 * dcook       is updating his db
04:19 wizzyrea      mmm something is quite wrong I think
04:19 dcook         Hmm
04:19 dcook         I think it's something wrong with you, wizzyrea
04:19 wizzyrea      yeah it looks that way.
04:19 dcook         Mine looks ok
04:20 * wizzyrea    dumps this database
04:33 wizzyrea      I just totes broke up with that DB, the little jerk.
04:42 dcook         hehe
04:42 dcook         I have comfort food :)
04:42 dcook         Oreos, BBQ shapes, and... raspberry iced tea
04:42 dcook         Hmm, apparently it's actually "Ice Tea"
04:43 dcook         Hmm.
04:43 eythian       wahanui: wizzyrea also is never going to refer to a client as a flithy smurf in professional correspondence. Again.
04:43 wahanui       OK, eythian.
04:43 * dcook       wishes he knew more about the science of tastebuds...
04:48 dcook         Wow...reading through the fine print on MARC21 bibliographic 300
04:48 dcook         Just...wow
04:48 dcook         I think my eyes might start bleeding soon
04:49 dcook         "In works that are not yet complete, only the type of unit designation is recorded preceded by three spaces. (The actual number of pieces received may be recorded as temporary data enclosed in angle brackets.)"
04:49 wizzyrea      lol damn you
04:50 dcook         In the example, the unit designation is not preceded by three spaces either...
04:50 wizzyrea      not you.
04:50 dcook         I know. I'm just ranting :).
04:50 wizzyrea      eythian. Because he's a smartass. ;)
04:50 dcook         I also know that eythian is a smartass :p.
04:50 * eythian     is not the one calling people names
04:50 dcook         hehe
04:50 wizzyrea      you told me to!
04:51 dcook         I think that's the part where you're supposed to deny it :p
04:51 wizzyrea      haha no way.
04:51 wizzyrea      I totally did it.
04:51 wizzyrea      it's not actually my fault that the recipient didn't notice it and forwarded it to his boss. :P
04:52 wizzyrea      it's only my fault for putting it there.
04:52 wizzyrea      at least it wasn't sweary.
04:52 * dcook       is so intrigued beyond words
04:54 * dcook       thinks LoC might've meant "succeeded" or "followed" rather than "preceded", although their example doesn't corroborate that either.
04:54 * dcook       thinks LoC might just be trolling everyone everywhere forever
04:54 eythian       that would sure be a surprise.
04:55 dcook         You know...maybe this is like Lost... and we all did something bad in our previous life... so now we're stuck with MARC21
04:56 dcook         If that's what Lost was about
04:56 dcook         Actually, forget Lost. *grumbles something about worst show ever*
04:57 dcook         I would love to know what a "set" is
04:57 dcook         According to MARC21
04:57 eythian       I have had the last half-dozen episodes sitting in my to-download queue for years now.
04:57 dcook         eythian: Save yourself some pain and just don't do it
04:57 dcook         Friends don't let friends watch Lost :p
04:57 eythian       So far, I've not done it :)
04:58 dcook         :)
04:58 eythian       hmm, I do have Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome sitting at home to watch.
04:58 eythian       perhaps that could be this evening's fare.
04:58 * dcook       thumbs up
04:58 dcook         I think this evening might be Orange is the New Black...or Orphan Black...
04:58 dcook         Or one of those shows that has an O or Black in the title
04:59 eythian       ooh is orphan black back again?
04:59 dcook         Dunno?
04:59 dcook         I actually met one of the actors from Orphan Black years ago though
04:59 dcook         We're from the same home town :)
04:59 eythian       oh, no. Still on break.
04:59 rangi         this looks pretty awesome
04:59 rangi         https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HaXxVKEtlIg&feature=youtu.be
04:59 eythian       cool
04:59 eythian       it's a good show that
04:59 dcook         Which one?
04:59 wahanui       i guess Which one is that? The fixed navbar?
05:00 eythian       orphan black
05:01 eythian       Dead Lands looks like it could be good.
05:01 dcook         Dead Lands looks intense
05:01 dcook         Mmm, yeah, I hear good things about Orphan Black
05:01 dcook         Such a small world...
05:01 dcook         I remember seeing Tatiana Maslany in local theatre productions
05:02 dcook         I was amazed when she was in Gingersnaps 2, so it's sort of a big deal that she's in Orphan Black now
05:02 eythian       oh, is that who you met?
05:02 dcook         Yeah, she was in an improv group with a librarian I know
05:02 eythian       she is utterly amazing in OB.
05:02 eythian       like, super-great.
05:02 dcook         That's what I hear :)
05:02 dcook         Hmm, I didn't know she had two brothers..
05:02 dcook         I've seen Daniel in some theatre too. He's pretty good.
05:03 rangi         the interesting thing about the dead lands is its entirely in maori
05:03 dcook         General Fools Improvisational Theatre. That was the improv group.
05:04 dcook         rangi: In the cast?
05:04 rangi         the language
05:04 wahanui       somebody said the language was filed letter by letter word by word
05:04 dcook         Sweet
05:04 eythian       oh cool
05:04 rangi         theres no english, ... maybe subtitles
05:04 rangi         and i think the first pre colonisation set one
05:05 rangi         http://www.flicks.co.nz/blog/news/why-you-should-be-excited-about-maori-action-film-the-dead-lands/
05:05 dcook         I wonder what it's distribution is going to be like
05:05 rangi         it'll play all the festivals i imagine
05:05 rangi         but then probably to dvd after that
05:15 dcook         yo cait
05:15 dcook         rangi: I might have to keep my eyes and ears out for it
05:16 eythian       hi cait
05:16 * cait        waves
05:17 dcook         Hmm 7:17am...I guess that's a reasonable time to be awake :p
05:18 cait          heh
05:18 cait          not sure
05:34 * mtompset    sneaks out.
05:34 mtompset      Have a great day, #koha.
05:36 indradg       good morning #koha
05:38 dcook         morning/afternoon indradg
05:39 indradg       dcook: morning it is... just about 11
05:48 dcook         3:47pm, I believe ;)
05:48 dcook         Huh...my local public library doesn't have "detail" pages apparently...just search results
05:48 * dcook       really dislikes the software used by his local public library
05:49 dcook         Such bad cataloguing as well...
05:49 dcook         I do a "series" search for "the walking dead" and I get volumes 19 and 20 out of the comic series
05:50 dcook         Even though I know for a fact they've catalogued 1-18 as well
06:36 dcook         Noo, it can't be 4:36pm already...
06:36 * dcook       thinks someone should work on the bug preventing each day from being 32 hours long.
06:40 reiveune      hello
06:40 wahanui       hello, reiveune
06:41 dcook         salut reiveune
06:41 reiveune      salut dcook
06:42 ashimema      morning
06:48 dcook         heya ashimema
06:48 wahanui       ashimema is on qa now .)
06:48 ashimema      hows it hangin' dcook
06:52 dcook         Mmm, good question
06:53 dcook         Ever changing? haha
06:53 dcook         How 'bout you?
06:54 cait          good morning #koha
06:54 dcook         heya cait
06:55 cait          go home dcook :)
06:57 dcook         What? It's not even 5pm yet!
06:57 dcook         (It's 4:57pm...)
06:57 dcook         That's 3 minutes of checking emails at least!
06:57 cait          heh ok
06:59 dcook         ^_^
07:02 dcook         [off] I'll never understand Australian bureaucracy. I need to fill out a government form so that one department can issue me a certificate that I can give to another department if they request it. Why put the onus on me and not just contact said department if they have need of extra info?
07:03 cait          [off] maybe they can't exchange your personal data without your consent/getting active?
07:04 dcook         [off] I thought about that a little bit. I hope that's the case, but I haven't seen anything stating that :/. It seems to me that the departments just don't communicate that well with each other.
07:50 ashimema      the left hand never knows what the rights hands doing over here eiter dcook
07:50 ashimema      morning cait.
07:50 cait          morning ashimema :)
07:53 ashimema      Why is it whenever you get back to a piece of code you were working on a few month before, that you just want to tear it apart and start again from scratch?
07:55 Joubu         Good morning #koha
07:55 dcook         ashimema: I think Australia learned it from England ;)
07:55 dcook         hehe
07:55 cait          morning Joubu
07:55 dcook         Also good question about the tearing apart
07:55 cait          ashimema: gues... don't let it lie around that long then? :P
07:55 * dcook       wants to tear apart his OAI client code
07:55 dcook         I was going to work on this code over the past few weeks, but been so busy...
07:56 dcook         (ashimema: In my case, it's that my coding ability has improved drastically since I originally wrote that code a year or so ago)
07:56 ashimema      yeah.. same issues dcook.. other things had to start taking priority.. finally getting back to stuff now and OMG, this code is aweful1
07:57 ashimema      likewise I reckon.
07:57 cait          which project is it? *curious* heh
07:57 ashimema      The bit that's currently bugging me.. is that it's making me really want to shift a bunch of surrounding stuff into Koha namespace and do them 'nicely' before I get back to this code
07:58 ashimema      it's my borrower import re-write cait..
07:58 ashimema      I see khall took the 'easy' route for a similar patch..
07:58 ashimema      but now I'm thinking all my work really isn't good enough to go into Koha:: as it's so intertwined with the C4:: members mechanicals..
07:58 ashimema      :(
07:59 dcook         Yeah, I know what you mean, ashimema. I had a bunch of plans for Search, but I think I'll have to incrementally improve it
08:00 dcook         Once I get a handle on all the current stuff I have...
08:00 * dcook       really needs a minion
08:00 cait          step by step... and noone is perfect :)
08:00 * cait        hands out cookies  and hugs to dcook and ashimema
08:00 dcook         It'll be good when my boss is back to help lighten the load, but then I go away, and I'll have lots to catch up on when I'm back from holiday..
08:00 dcook         D'awww
08:00 * dcook       hugs cait back
08:00 dcook         I have oreos? Not everyone considers them to be cookies, but I'm happy to share :)
08:01 * cait        loves oreos
08:01 cait          it's not so long that you can get them here i think
08:01 ashimema      :)
08:02 ashimema      It's really hard to know where to draw the line between adding more technical debt atop old cold and when you should bite the bullet and recode something before adding an enhancement atop it.
08:02 ashimema      s/cold/code
08:03 cait          but we also need to be careful not to rewrite constntly, i think there needs to be a gain when doing it
08:04 rangi         http://blog.bigballofwax.co.nz/2012/07/31/yes-you-should-rewrite-it-no-not-like-that/
08:04 ashimema      What do you think of as 'a gain' though.. if it make's it drastically easier to write new enhancements..?  is that enough of a gain?
08:04 * ashimema    heads off to read rangi's blog post.
08:04 cait          if the enh follows the rewrite i think yes
08:04 cait          but not rewrite just to rewrite :)
08:07 ashimema      so in your method cait.. would one do the rewrite and then base a second bug upon that re-write?
08:08 * dcook       is also curious about this ^
08:08 ashimema      'cause i've seen a number of bugs like that that never go in.. bacially because peopel are scared of the re-write part so they get blocked ;)
08:08 * dcook       so far has done some rewrites and waited for them to go in
08:08 ashimema      or would you do the re-write as part of the enhancement bug.. to give it a better chance of going in.
08:09 ashimema      certainly.. having lots of unit tests helps with this ;)
08:09 rangi         first patch should be the tests
08:09 rangi         second patch should be a rewrite
08:09 rangi         such that all the tests still pass
08:10 ashimema      certainly..
08:10 wahanui       hmmm... certainly is confusing.. thanks for bringing your attention to it.
08:10 rangi         almost all of the rewrite ones are the other way round
08:10 ashimema      but should the enhancement be the third patch in the same bug.. or another bug entirely ;)
08:10 rangi         either is fine
08:10 wahanui       i already had it that way, rangi.
08:11 dcook         What about when the rewrite actually fixes something that was broken?
08:11 dcook         In that case, the outcome of the test should be different
08:11 rangi         yes so the test should be failing
08:11 dcook         Sweeet
08:11 rangi         and the patch should fix it
08:11 * dcook       likes this idea
08:12 dcook         I'll have to ask again when I actually get back to the search stuff..
08:12 dcook         Oh, forgot about Francois's email..
08:13 ashimema      I agree in principle..
08:13 dcook         It could be tough in some cases, me thinks, ashimema
08:13 ashimema      and that's actually how I tend to go about re-writing now..
08:14 ashimema      but yeah.. my instance if I'de like to completely re-write Members.pm to be object oriented instead of functional..
08:14 ashimema      and I think a fair chunk of the subs would actually just go away..
08:15 ashimema      that would need to be a staged migration from one approach to the other.. how would you go about such a large shift?
08:15 rangi         you still need to test all the functionality still works
08:15 rangi         and id do it incrementally
08:16 rangi         there is rarely ever a need to do an entire module in one go
08:16 ashimema      yup.. would have to be incremental
08:16 rangi         do a sub, then another, then another
08:17 ashimema      k, i'm starting to get a bit of a map in my head for this now..
08:17 ashimema      huge amount of work in total
08:21 rangi         3.4.1 seriously
08:22 dcook         ashimema: But yay for member rewrite!
08:22 dcook         rangi: 3.4.1?
08:22 wahanui       hmmm... 3.4.1 is http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=tree;h=ad72f266b9a9ee9d60062f4d38f326c92acb5674;hb=03e6e5cb033edceaffef0dd693300df8fa9fb0f6 rather
08:23 * dcook       goes back to doing his taxes
08:23 dcook         One moment Lingua::Stem::Snowball. The next taxes.
08:23 ashimema      huh?
08:23 ashimema      3.4.1 rangi?
08:23 rangi         someone asking about a problem in koha 3.4.1
08:23 rangi         its only 3 years old
08:24 ashimema      oh.. on list somewhere I assume.
08:24 ashimema      ack.
08:24 rangi         yep
08:24 dcook         I'm gobsmacked when I see questions floating around the internet about installing Koha 2.x
08:26 ashimema      [off] I'm not gonna reply to that email.. don't think I would be able to prevent myself from sounding rude and unprofessional
08:28 ashimema      [off] I'm also not a fan of RTFM questions, theres a few today.
08:53 cait          Joubu: can you think of a public library with branche and nice catalog?
08:55 Joubu         cait: what do you mean by "nice"?
08:56 cait          looking nice :)
08:56 Joubu         aix marseille has a big catalog: http://catalogue.univ-aix-marseille.fr
08:56 Joubu         ha
08:56 cait          true, but i need a public one
08:56 cait          public library i mean
08:58 Joubu         http://koha.mediathequeouestprovence.fr/ ?
09:11 dcook         [off] Boo exhausting tax procedures. Yay for being classed as "low income" for the previous tax year. I wonder if I'll still be "low income" after this year's pay increase...
09:31 cait          Joubu: thx!
09:33 indradg       dcook: the reason people are still gung-ho about 2.x is that those were the last to run on a MSFT Windows based system
09:33 indradg       expired and pirated WinXP is still around in millions
09:34 dcook         Ahhhhhhhh
09:34 dcook         That explains so much, indradg!
09:34 indradg       plus... Linux is all commands, and it is verry tough! :P
09:34 dcook         Bah, it's not that tough :p
09:35 dcook         I think you could actually install Koha on Ubuntu with almost no commandline work
09:35 dcook         I think you can set sources via a GUI, install the packages via the GUI...
09:35 dcook         I suppose the stumbling block would be setting up Apache
09:35 dcook         Which is the same stumbling block as now
09:35 indradg       yep... that is not the image Linux has in large parts of Asia
09:36 dcook         That's fascinating :)
09:36 dcook         I don't think we've quite made it to Asia yet. I think we're mostly still Pacific Islands
09:36 dcook         Well, Australia and Pacific Islands
09:36 dcook         Oh, actually, maybe we have done some work in Southeast Asia..
09:37 indradg       trust me! a digital signature is a scanned image of signature
09:37 dcook         O_o
09:37 dcook         The world is an interesting place :)
09:37 indradg       i got this from a very senior federal govt boss last month
09:37 dcook         Ah, well, there's your problem ;)
09:38 dcook         I was watching a show called "Utopia" last night
09:38 dcook         It's a satire of Australian government
09:38 indradg       lol
09:38 dcook         I've worked in Canadian government, and there definitely is a disconnect between hands on reality and perceived reality the further up you go the governmental food chain
09:39 dcook         Which...makes a certain amount of sense I suppose. If one spends all of one's time in boardrooms and meetings, it is likely that one is going to be out of touch.
09:39 indradg       its same every where apparently... just a degree of difference in the levels of spit and polish
09:39 dcook         Agreed
09:39 dcook         I think that's why I love my current job
09:40 indradg       @seen mtompset

09:40 dcook         I can be hands on with Koha and metadata, but still help out with certain policy decisions
09:40 indradg       dcook++
09:40 dcook         (Although policy decisions are usually DSpace rather than Koha...)
09:40 dcook         Hmm?
09:40 dcook         I don't know what I've done :p
09:40 dcook         Other than trying to fix IE bugs :p
09:42 indradg       @later tell mtompset have a look at http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/attachment.cgi?id=31173 adds [% USE Koha %] to all existing intranet templates that did not have them

09:42 indradg       @seen jcamins
09:42 huginn        indradg: jcamins was last seen in #koha 12 hours, 5 minutes, and 12 seconds ago: <jcamins> Likewise, you could add a test plan "try to download jquery.ime plugin using your web browser," but it's hard to see why anyone would want to do that.
09:57 jcamins       You don't need to add me as a CC on bugs.
09:57 indradg       @later tell jcamins I've split up the patch for bug 12815 into a 5 part patch set. Not sure, if I did it alright
09:57 huginn        indradg: The operation succeeded.
09:58 indradg       jcamins: wilco!
10:07 dcook         Whoa, I've been at work long enough that jcamins has gone to bed and risen again :p
10:09 dcook         Ooo, I can get wine delivered to my house.
10:09 dcook         I think the wine store is only about a block away, but... delivery!
10:12 cait          lol
10:12 cait          go home.
10:17 dcook         Nevar!
10:17 cait          *shrug*
10:18 dcook         Actually, I'm just changing addresses and stuff like that, and waiting to hear if my wife wants an escort home.
10:18 dcook         As she is out and about in the city.

10:54 indradg       ok
11:13 ashimema      i'm so happy to see people using the sandboxes outside of a conferance or other event where they're being plugged.. it's awesome Joubu, indradg
11:13 indradg       ashimema: :)
11:16 Joubu         ashimema: yep, I just have a look at the stats, something like 30 requests has been done in August (for BibLibre' sandboxes)
11:16 Joubu         for 4 signoffs
11:17 Joubu         There are 1000 lines in the table since 2013-07-12
11:27 ashimema      That's fantastic Joubu..
11:27 ashimema      we're a bit behind on that.. but then I didn't get them working again at this end until recently.
11:27 ashimema      but yeah.. the stats table is starting to fill up with non ptfs-europe addresses.. which is great to see..
11:28 ashimema      I always wanted to encourage people outside of just our own customer base to use them..
11:28 ashimema      to b fair.. we're struggling to get our own customer base to use them much to start with...
11:37 tcohen        morning
11:40 indradg       morning tcohen
11:46 cait          morning tcohen :)
11:47 tcohen        we need to schedule a deadline for the utf8 patches
11:47 * dcook       needs to head home
11:47 tcohen        hi dcook
11:47 dcook         hey tcohen :)
11:48 cait          go hme dcook
11:48 * ashimema    is getting fed up of monitor issues with this box
11:48 ashimema      still here dcook.. it's way past your home time mate
11:50 dcook         I was just catching up on a few life admin things (and maybe doing a few Koha emails in between).
11:50 dcook         Heading home now ;)
11:51 dcook         Night all :)
11:51 cait          hm
11:51 cait          noone told him to take ashimema with him...
11:51 cait          :)
11:52 * tcohen      thinks ashimema should replace his router
11:52 cait          ah good
11:52 cait          for a moment i thought you had gone with dcook :)
11:53 ashimema      it's not the router.. it's the dual screen issues I'm having with this system.. I've just rebooted a number of times to enable/disable bios settings.
11:53 ashimema      I have dual screns again now..
11:53 ashimema      but the primary one doesn't like me still. :(
11:54 ashimema      i get that horrible tearing when i drag a window accross it :(
11:54 tcohen        what os?
11:54 ashimema      ubuntu gnome edition.
11:54 tcohen        14.04?
11:54 ashimema      14.04
11:55 tcohen        maybe its a compiz problem
11:55 ashimema      I didn't think gnome used compiz?
11:55 ashimema      Gallium 0.4 on AMD BONAIRE
11:56 Joubu         tcohen: how do you schedule a deadline?
11:56 Joubu         for the utf8 patches
11:56 cait          Joubu: just a quick question- it hink currently we have freight cost on invoice level not on aqorders level - will the patch change it? i am cnfused about some of the freight comments
11:57 tcohen        Joubu: we should schedule a dev meeting to take on that topic
11:57 Joubu         cait: yes, I added that in the Questions/notes
11:57 cait          ah ok... not quite there yet
11:57 tcohen        and make sure all interested parties are present
11:57 cait          and it started raining and all my papers ended on the floor in between from the wind
11:57 Joubu         cait: IMO we should remove aqorders.shipment*
11:57 Joubu         and use aqinvoices.shipment*
11:57 cait          hm do you mean freight?
11:58 Joubu         yeo
11:58 Joubu         yep
11:58 cait          i think we only use that currently - but there were libraries who wanted the freight ocst to be divided and the partials being added to the order lines
11:58 Joubu         tcohen: who are the interested parties? :)
11:58 cait          so I think i'd not hastily remove it, but be clear that currently the level is one step higher
11:59 tcohen        we are the interested parties
11:59 tcohen        :-D
11:59 cait          i missed the interest of the party
11:59 cait          which is it?
11:59 * cait        has to check if she belongs to the parties
11:59 jcamins       Cookies!
11:59 wahanui       Cookies are delicious delicacies
12:00 jcamins       Wait, that's not the interest of the party?
12:00 * jcamins     takes his noisemaker and silly hat elsewhere.
12:00 cait          hi oleonard
12:00 cait          heh
12:00 cait          utf-8?
12:00 jcamins       *My* party is about cookies.
12:00 wahanui       i guess utf-8 is lovely apart from the BOMs.
12:00 tcohen        heh
12:00 cait          i think first we need another date for a dev meeting :)
12:00 Joubu         cait: aqorders.feright is not used (and has never been used I think)
12:00 tcohen        next tuesday
12:00 cait          Joubu: i think it has before 3.2 maybe
12:00 oleonard      Hi partgoers.
12:00 cait          so if we remove some libraries might lose data -i'd rather keep it around for now
12:01 oleonard      Partygoers I mean.
12:02 cait          tcohen: works for me
12:02 cait          i thin paola updated the wiki again, but haven't checked closely
12:03 tcohen        as i see it, stakeholders are those interested in having this patches moving, and the utf8 mess cleaned soon
12:03 tcohen        and also, those who have concerns about this patch series
12:03 cait          it blocks other dev too
12:04 tcohen        and might have something to propose/add/change
12:04 Joubu         tcohen: Does someone proposed something?
12:05 tcohen        i'd like to have some regression tests for this, at least for C4::Templates
12:05 tcohen        but didn't seriously take the time to think of how to do it
12:05 Joubu         nobody is going to write them...
12:07 Joubu         Paola updated the wiki to tell "all" is working : http://wiki.koha-community.org/w/index.php?title=Handling_UTF8_in_development&action=historysubmit&diff=13174&oldid=13153
12:07 cait          :)
12:07 tcohen        Joubu: we'll schedule a dev meeting for tuesday, and formally talk about it there, ok?
12:08 cait          i thin we need a plan
12:08 cait          it has been on the agenda  a few times now
12:08 cait          but it's hard to get it really moving
12:08 cait          and we are getting into the second half of the cylce
12:09 * tcohen      would like to have 4 more spare hours a day
12:10 ashimema      just four.. I could do with another 6 at least.
12:10 tcohen        i'll try to write a sample unit test for tuesday, for others to review
12:10 cait          make it 10? :)
12:10 tcohen        just a tiny one, to see what others think testing this should be
12:11 Joubu         tcohen: I will review it, with pleasure!
12:11 tcohen        *be like

12:43 cait          hm quick poll
12:43 cait          what do peopel think about removing items when importing via z39.50?
12:48 oleonard      At my library we would not want to import items
12:48 cait          thx oleonard :)
12:49 oleonard      Why do you ask cait?
12:50 cait          there is a patch that will remove 952/995 from z39.50 records on import
12:50 cait          bug 6681

12:57 tcohen        cait: i'd suggest we implement a way of specifying what to remove
12:58 cait          i'd like that a little better, but was not sure if i was wrong
12:58 cait          i keep thinking there might be use cases where people don't want the fields to be removed, but haven't come up with one yet
12:58 tcohen        the existence of those particular fields/subfields is just a consequence of a bad configuration (or not) and other requirements could arise
12:58 cait          coudl you add a comment on the bug with your thoughts?
12:59 tcohen        hmpf
12:59 cait          don't steal my soudn words! :)

13:16 cait          taxes make my brain hurt
13:17 cait          Joubu++ # he deserves it all the tax thinking :)
13:20 Joubu         cait: good news!
13:20 wahanui       good news is it looks like it's running properly.
13:21 cait          Joubu: taxes are dead and we don't have to care about them?
13:22 Joubu         it's the first config: 0 0, no?
13:24 cait          hm i think 1 1 - inclue include
13:24 cait          or... depens if there are no taxes anymore both woudl work the same i guess :)
13:25 * cait        is confused now
13:26 ashimema      pants.. Sorry I missed that LDAP regression tcohen
13:26 tcohen        we didn't have that code fully covered by unit tests, regressions can occur
13:27 cait          dpavlin: around? :)
13:27 ashimema      I should have spotted it.. it's obvious now I look at it.. but the case didn't even occure to me :(
13:27 * ashimema    feels like a bad QA'er
13:28 cait          ashimema: do I have to repeat the hug and cookie thing? :)
13:28 cait          you are only human
13:28 ashimema      lol.. i'm always in acceptance of hugs cait ;)
13:28 cait          heh
13:28 tcohen        ashimema: use the mocked ldap object, configured to fail, and make sure it falls back to a successful authentication (create a user you know credentials)
13:28 cait          *cookie and hug* then
13:29 ashimema      did dpavlin submit a bug for it yet?
13:30 cait          didn't check, only get the bug mail where i am cc at work
13:31 cait          ashimema: is there a trick to make bug link sin the wiki maybe?
13:32 ashimema      hmm.. I could create a template to do it for you cait?
13:33 ashimema      would look somthing like {{bug|12345}} in wiki markup.. and would come out as 'bug 12345' with a link on page

13:33 ashimema      haha.. silly huginn
13:34 ashimema      all the template would do is translate to [[url|bug 12345]] dynamically
13:35 cait          ashimema: that sounds nice :) dokuwiki can do wimilar with interwiki links, so i wondered
13:36 cait          [[bug>xxxx]] in ours .)
13:40 ashimema      there you go..
13:40 ashimema      {{bug|12345}} should now work..
13:41 ashimema      we could now retrospectively replace all occurences of 'Bug 12345' with the template syntax to get all to link.

13:57 cait          ashimema++
13:59 ashimema      Yeah.. it'll work throughout..
13:59 ashimema      we just can't easily apply it retrospectively..

16:33 cait          oh
16:33 tcohen        it seems a really bad default configuration!
16:33 cait          yeah
16:33 cait          including passwords?
16:34 tcohen        shhhh
16:36 * tcohen      is happy the sru protocol doens't provide a way to write stuff..
16:37 cait          some interesting comments too
16:37 cait          :P
16:39 tcohen        DEAD!!!
16:40 cait          yep hehe
16:40 gmcharlt      oy
16:41 reiveune      bye
16:42 tcohen        the explain file is there just for explaining, right?
16:42 tcohen        so people using SRU/SRW know how to query our Zebra server
16:43 tcohen        otherwise, that 2008 dated file should've been modified the last 6 years
16:43 ashimema      ack.. I dislike how allot of our unit tests are so picky about the database they are run against!
16:43 tcohen        ashimema: that is changing
16:43 ashimema      indeed..
16:44 tcohen        ashimema: feel positive, now :-D
16:44 gmcharlt      ashimema: obey the RM!
16:44 gmcharlt      ;)
16:45 ashimema      I'm still up and down regarding testbuilder btw.. I kinda want someone else to weigh in.. but I do think in the particular case I'm now getting annoyed about it would have helped prevent it.
16:45 cait          oleonard++ woohoo thx!
16:45 ashimema      gmcharlt: not seen you in ages. how goes it?
16:45 gmcharlt      ashimema: busily
16:46 ashimema      I know that feeling.
16:46 tcohen        same here
16:47 ashimema      Hmm.. I tihnk to QA this patch I'm going to have to blow away my test database and start again..
16:47 ashimema      :'(
16:47 tcohen        which one?
16:47 wahanui       which one is probably that? The fixed navbar?
16:48 ashimema      anyone fancy grabbing bug 11577 and running a prove on db_dependant/Circulation.t
16:48 huginn        04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=11577 new feature, P5 - low, ---, h.meissner.82, Signed Off , [ENH] Automatic renewal feature
16:48 cait          i tried, fails for me after 24
16:48 ashimema      I can't get the tests to actually reach his changes.. they die long before that due to db constraint failures on my test db.
16:49 ashimema      fails after test 15 for me.. or rather.. dies after test 15 rather than fails.
16:51 tcohen        oh, dbic needs to be updated to properly test
16:52 ashimema      on your system you mean tcohen?
16:52 ashimema      It's perfectly understandable that Circulation.t dies on my setup..  the line that dies makes a bunch of assumptions that simply aren't true in my test db.
16:53 ashimema      either we need a definitive test db that we all test against (which I don't really like the idea of).. or we need to build all the data for every test properly on a per test run.
16:53 ashimema      TestBuilder is basically exactly for that me thinks.
16:55 tcohen        http://snag.gy/OPSPg.jpg
16:56 tcohen        ashimema: jenkins runs on top of kohastructure + all default data chosen on web installer
16:56 ashimema      looks like you forgot to run updatedatabase tcohen?
16:56 tcohen        and also, you might be noticing a bug, on Koha or the tests
16:57 ashimema      it adds the required auto_renew column ;)
16:57 tcohen        because there is a $dbh->do('DELETE FROM issues');
16:57 tcohen        line on the first place
16:57 ashimema      yeah.. Circulation.t is horrible.. it randomly mangles data into and out of the database all over the shop it seems
16:57 tcohen        heh, the relevant part was that tests pass on my box
16:58 ashimema      lol.. I didn't read down far enough..
16:58 ashimema      haha.. thanks.
16:58 * ashimema    is happy now :)
16:58 tcohen        that's why i like wrapping tests inside subtests,
16:58 tcohen        with a proper rollback at the end
16:58 ashimema      certainly.
16:58 wahanui       certainly is confusing.. thanks for bringing your attention to it.
16:59 cait          tcohen: at least we are getting better :)
16:59 tcohen        exactly :-D
16:59 ashimema      I'm thinking I'm going to pass TestBuilder now... but may request some other QA'ers weight in too
16:59 tcohen        we just need a newer libtest-more-perl, or deprecate squeeze :-P
17:00 * tcohen      tries to start a flame war
17:01 ashimema      haha...
17:01 ashimema      My shib tests use subtests...
17:02 ashimema      I take it that means they will fail on squeeze then :(
17:04 tcohen        eythian will build the more recent one soon, don't worry
17:05 ashimema      what is our policy on adding 'contributing institutions' ?
17:05 tcohen        Sponsored-by: Institution on the patches?
17:06 ashimema      this bug adds a line to about.tt with the institution that sponsored this particular bug (it's actually the second bug they've sponsored with the first one already in master)
17:06 tcohen        i don't think we have a policy for that
17:07 ashimema      K.. so it 'should' be ok to add it within this bug..
17:07 ashimema      I can't see any real reason why not.. just thought it worth askin in case I'de missed a policy somewhere ;)
17:07 tcohen        my opinion would be that those attributions should be release-wise
17:07 tcohen        that's why i'm thinking on how to refactor the about page
17:10 cait          hm I think it's nice to have history
17:10 tcohen        cait: me too!
17:10 cait          and it's all we can offer volunteers
17:10 cait          having your name there :)
17:10 cait          i think it shouldn't go away with new releases - and in this case it's even a library contributing new features
17:10 tcohen        i was toying with a version carousel
17:10 cait          :)
17:11 jcamins       tcohen: I have a page that can help you with that.
17:11 tcohen        with all version + release teams
17:11 tcohen        ah, eythian showed me one
17:11 jcamins       http://shouldiuseacarousel.com/
17:11 tcohen        :-P
17:11 tcohen        not *that* kind of carousel
17:12 tcohen        just a means to avoid having zillions of tabs for each version
17:13 tcohen        http://snag.gy/SgGM5.jpg
17:13 tcohen        ^^^^^ if I put all versions... it will grow a lot
17:15 * tcohen      facepalms about Zebra's SRU explain
17:15 tcohen        "Unfortunately, the data found in the CQL-to-PQF text file must be added by hand-craft into the explain section of the YAZ Frontend Server configuration file to be able to provide a suitable explain record. Too bad, but this is all extreme new alpha stuff, and a lot of work has yet to be done .."
17:16 cait          tcohen: is tuesday agreed on for the dev meeting?
17:17 tcohen        you need to send an email de koha-devel to be sure :-P
17:18 cait          *hides*
17:39 cait          tcohen: can you delegate on someone else?
17:42 ashimema      ok.. properly stupid question here..
17:43 ashimema      how does the dbh->rollback call work?
17:44 ashimema      This test script is full of calls to things like AddIssue.. will just a dbh->rollback at the end of the test file also roll back those actions?
17:44 ashimema      and if now.. should that be a fail ?
17:49 tcohen        ashimema: it rolls the db changes back
17:50 tcohen        for example addissue changes
17:50 tcohen        ashimema: note that AUTO_INCREMENT will keep growing even on rollback
17:50 ashimema      great..
17:51 ashimema      so it works more comprehensively than I thought..
17:51 ashimema      I couldn't see anything in the script that sets the start of a transaction to rollback to.. I must have just missed that somehow.
17:52 ashimema      tcohen.. you can ignore most of the last comment I make on bug 11577 then..
17:52 huginn        04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=11577 new feature, P5 - low, ---, h.meissner.82, Passed QA , [ENH] Automatic renewal feature
17:52 ashimema      :)
17:53 tcohen        :)
17:53 tcohen        cait: did my email hit koha-devel?
17:55 cait          yep just now
17:55 oleonard-away I got a dev meeting one if that's what you mean tcohen
17:55 cait          ashimema++ :)
17:55 tcohen        yes, thanks oleonard
17:56 ashimema      right.. think I need khall to clarify what his followup to TestBuilder achieves.. then I 'think' I'm happy passing that one too..
18:02 cait          khall_away:
18:02 * cait        tries her new super power
18:02 cait          khall_away
18:02 wahanui       i guess khall_away is familiar with DBIx::Class too, so he probably would know what to do
18:51 oleonard      Bye #koha
19:00 indradg       evening #koha
19:01 indradg       @seen mtompset
19:01 huginn        indradg: mtompset was last seen in #koha 13 hours, 27 minutes, and 9 seconds ago: <mtompset> Have a great day, #koha.
19:06 indradg       hi all, I need a suggestion - bug 12815 needs TT plugin include in the intranet template i.e. [%- USE Koha -&]
19:06 huginn        04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=12815 enhancement, P3, ---, indradg, Needs Signoff , Adding browser based multi-lingual jquery.ime input method support to Koha
19:07 indradg       the part of the patch for the staff client *depends* on that plugin being included. How do I proceed?
19:08 jcamins       indradg: you put the patch adding the [% USE Koha %] line on that bug before the patch that adds your functionality to the staff client.
19:09 jcamins       indradg: actually, I just looked at your patch, and I don't see why you can't just add [% USE Koha %] at the top of doc-head-close.
19:10 jcamins       In that same patch.
19:11 indradg       jcamins: I can do that, but from what I saw, everywhere it was added it was inside a .tt file
19:12 jcamins       Did you try just adding it to the .inc file
19:12 jcamins       *?
19:12 jcamins       Because I can think of no reason it wouldn't work, and adding one line to one file is preferable to adding one line to hundreds of files.
19:14 indradg       jcamins: thats was what I did originally and yes that had worked
19:14 jcamins       Yeah, that's fine. When you asked me before, it sounded like you were planning on adding the line to every single file, which is why I said you needed to make it a separate patch.
19:16 indradg       aah
20:22 rangi         @later tell ashimema yep, saw the comment, still think our own db astraction layer for testing is a step back not forwards, will promote less understanding of the db structure not more
20:22 huginn        rangi: The operation succeeded.
20:34 andrew_       Hi. Does anybody have any idea on how to do a batch write-off of fines?
20:37 * andrew_     slaps andrew_ around a bit with a large fishbot
20:38 cait          andrew_: what are you trying to do?
20:38 andrew_       We are trying to eliminate all the fines for all current patrons
20:39 andrew_       something better than manually going through and forgiving each individual fine
20:39 cait          hm you could do it with sql, i think not from the staff interface currently
20:39 cait          what is the reason you eliminate them?
20:39 andrew_       I've been working on doing it through sql for the past 5 hours.
20:41 andrew_       We are a school library so if books were checked out before the summer they accrued fines during the summer. We wanted to clear them and start over for the school year
20:41 cait          is this a production system? or just getting started?
20:41 andrew_       This is production
20:41 cait          hm ok
20:42 andrew_       The changes I have been making have been very minor and in a vm so I have sufficient backup protection should something go wrong
20:42 cait          for migations i woudl have suggested deleting the lines, but htat's not very clean
20:42 andrew_       yeah.
20:42 cait          another suggestion to speed things up a bit
20:43 cait          write a report for the users with fines and into the report put a link to patron acount fine page
20:43 cait          that way you can wlak through them faster
20:44 cait          maybe you can even craft a link to the waive fines thing
20:44 andrew_       thats possible but the head librarian doesn't want to take that route. He wanted it automated if all possible.
20:44 cait          i think the other thing would be to write a little program to do it
20:44 cait          how many students have fines?
20:45 cait          also have you thought about how to prevent for next year?
20:46 andrew_       Around 70 and no. I just got this position this year and havne't been doing much more than trying to maintain what we have
20:46 andrew_       and figure out how koha works
20:47 cait          i'd suggest doing it manually - 70 is less than an hour with a report and opening the links in a tab... and so on
20:47 cait          probably
20:48 cait          and then for next school year, prevent fines to accrue during summer
20:48 cait          there are ways to make sure hte due date falls into the new school year
20:48 andrew_       ok
20:48 cait          but: if hte student hasn't returned the book yet, I am not sure, but i think the fine might accrue again over night - i'd check that
20:49 andrew_       that was one problem I ran into
20:49 cait          it gets recalculated - over night or on return
20:49 andrew_       I can change all of the fines to 0 but then as soon as I manually run the script it redoes it
20:49 cait          so you also need to renew I tink
20:50 cait          there is also a preference that will recalculate the fne from the due date on return... that could give you trouble too
20:50 andrew_       I also figured out how to do that, but the library staff wants to know if someone still has an overdue book but just not charge fines on it. It is possible but involves manually going through and paying all the fines for that book.
20:51 andrew_       I found that when you go in koha and writeoff a fine it adds a new entry in the database that just says write off and has the amount but I havne' figured out how it knows what it is paying of because the item number is null
20:52 andrew_       and thats where I got stuck and started googling like crazy till i just came here
20:52 cait          i think it will also change the amountoutstanding of the fine
20:52 cait          entry
20:52 cait          but that won't fix your reappearing fines problem i think
20:52 andrew_       nope
20:53 andrew_       I already tried it :)
20:53 cait          hm.
20:54 cait          sorry - not having a good idea right now
20:54 andrew_       oh its fine.
20:54 cait          i'd suggest honestly to just waive the fines on return of the books
20:54 andrew_       ok
20:55 andrew_       I guess I just figured that there had to be someone else somewhere who wanted to forgive all fines one time but I guess not.
20:55 cait          waiving fines on books the patron still has is the tricky part i think
20:55 cait          without reneweing
20:55 andrew_       agreed
20:57 andrew_       Well thanks for your help. I guess I'd better go and get working on them
20:57 cait          sorry to be not more helpful
20:57 andrew_       its fine. :)
21:13 WNickC        just randomly, does anyone happen to know what impact, if any, opening a library as a Z39.50 source has on system performance?
21:13 ashimema      time for bed..
21:14 ashimema      night #koha
21:14 WNickC        I mean I suppose it depends on use
21:14 cait          hm would think so
21:14 cait          not sure, we haven't been asked to do that so far
21:15 WNickC        just noticing that all our incoming sources are INNOPAC or HORIZON
21:15 WNickC        would be nice to see us pulling from other Koha users
21:15 WNickC        or maybe I am being idealistic
21:16 cait          :)
21:16 wizzyrea      WNickC: it's negliglble.
21:16 wizzyrea      negligible*
21:16 cait          hi wizzyrea - and (belated) happy birthday!
21:16 wizzyrea      and yeah, depends on usage
21:16 wizzyrea      :) thanks :)
21:16 cait          WNickC: i think the reason we didn't get asked to is that the records are in the union catalog and that offers a z3950
21:17 cait          maybe some of the bigger consortias offer z3950 to their koha systems?
21:17 wizzyrea      NExpress does I think
21:17 wizzyrea      we have a Crown Research Institute that offers one
21:17 WNickC        oh, maybe I should ask NExpress then since we are both Bywater
21:17 wizzyrea      it's made no apparent impact on the performance of the system
21:17 wizzyrea      can't hurt, just email heather
21:18 WNickC        we all shared a bunch of our sources at NAKUG, but none of us shared our own
21:18 wizzyrea      she'll know if it's public or not.
21:18 WNickC        and she'll know if Larry endorses the idea or nit
21:18 bag           ha
21:18 wizzyrea      Larry can be convinced
21:18 wizzyrea      >.>
21:18 cait          ah here is bag :)
21:18 wizzyrea      hi bag.
21:18 cait          i was about to suggest to ask bywater if they know of libraires with activated z39.50 :)
21:19 bag           hey cait and wizzyrea
21:19 bag           yeah we have quite a few that are opened up
21:19 * wizzyrea    suspects bag has an alert on the word bywater
21:19 bag           yup
21:19 wizzyrea      bywater bywater bywater bywater
21:19 WNickC        yeah, I just wnated to see if it was common or not before asking consortia and then Bywater
21:19 bag           HI HI HI HI wizzyrea
21:19 wizzyrea      BING BING BING BING
21:19 wizzyrea      :)
21:19 wizzyrea      It's early and the sun is shining!
21:20 wizzyrea      well early, 9:30
21:20 wizzyrea      not that early.
21:20 WNickC        thanks all
21:20 wizzyrea      gl WNickC
21:20 bag           BTW WNickC vokal has their z3950 open
21:20 cait          yay vokal
21:20 wizzyrea      oh vokal I should have thought of them too.
21:20 WNickC        I thought we did, but I don't think we publicize it anywhere
21:20 * wizzyrea    has too many libraries stuffed into her head now
21:21 WNickC        was really thinking it would be nice to have a list of open z39.50s for koha
21:21 bag           yeah WNickC is from Vokal
21:21 WNickC        cover=blown
21:21 bag           hmm I think we may have started a list on the wiki awhile ago?  not sure
21:22 WNickC        I didn't see one
21:24 bag           I thought it was somewhere like this page http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/KohaUsers/NorthAmerica
21:24 bag           but I'm an wrong
21:25 bag           if you want a nice list of Z3950 targets - I use this a bunch http://irspy.indexdata.com/
21:25 magnuse       bag: HI
21:25 bag           magnuse: HI THERE
21:25 wahanui       hi, bag
21:26 WNickC        bag: yeah, I like IRSpy, just thought it would be nice to have some Koha targets specifically
21:26 WNickC        like in solidarity or somthing?
21:26 bag           yup
21:27 wizzyrea      Could just make a wiki page
21:28 wizzyrea      or add to that one but I don't see why it has to be US only
21:29 WNickC        yeah, I think I might do that
21:30 bag           wizzyrea: I just clicked on a link - didn't want to make it only US :)  if you go back one page - it's all broken out
21:31 bag           http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_Users_Worldwide
21:53 wizzyrea      yeah that's probably a better place :)
21:55 wizzyrea      actually I'd rather either make sure our targets are listed in irspy
21:55 wizzyrea      or have our own equivalent to irspy.
21:55 wizzyrea      but probably 1, nobody needs another place to look.
21:58 WNickC        well, I put this there http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_Open_Z39.50_Sources
21:59 WNickC        making web pretty, not my skillset
22:08 wizzyrea      :) nice one
22:13 WNickC        thx
22:43 eythian       hi
22:43 wahanui       niihau, eythian
23:07 eythian       @later tell cait http://youtu.be/zcOhrtAFc-Y <-- things are different in Germany eh
23:07 huginn        eythian: The operation succeeded.
23:20 eythian       dcook: would enabling QueryParser cause non-advanced searches to stop working?
23:34 * dcook       ponders
23:34 dcook         In the OPAC or the staff client?
23:34 dcook         In the OPAC, no - non-advanced searches should work
23:34 dcook         In the staff client, I have noticed that non-advanced searches don't seem to work in 3.14.5
23:35 dcook         Unsure if that's a bug or something broken on my end though.
23:35 dcook         eythian^
23:40 * dcook       stalks gmcharlt's LJ mover and shaker page
23:40 dcook         Just realized LJ could be LiveJournal or Library Journal. Hmmm
23:45 eythian       dcook: this is 3.12.10 ('s ok, we're planning an upgrade RSN :)
23:46 eythian       > Enabling UseQueryParser breaks all searching in opac and simple search in intra unless a field is manually specified
23:47 dcook         Hmm. Could be.
23:47 dcook         I noticed it seemed to break simple search in 3.14.5 in intra
23:48 dcook         Although opac seemed ok
23:48 dcook         But... maybe I'm imagining that about the opac
23:48 dcook         I shut it down pretty fast as it wasn't working well enough
23:48 eythian       Ah right
23:48 * dcook       would so love people to give him some money to improve QP
23:48 eythian       the issue here is that there are some advanced searches that don't work without query parser, but show up anyway (which strikes me as bad)
23:49 dcook         mmm, those subject ones, eh?
23:49 eythian       yeah
23:49 dcook         Yeah, that drives me a bit nuts
23:49 eythian       su-br and su-na etc
23:49 dcook         You might notice that one of them does work
23:49 dcook         su-na is nasty
23:49 dcook         As it's actually defined in ccl.properties as well
23:49 dcook         For a totally different purpose
23:49 eythian       ick
23:49 dcook         yarp
23:50 dcook         I think they could work without queryparser, if ccl.properties were updated
23:50 dcook         I think it's PQF.pm or something that manually adds those aliases/indexes into the QP config
23:50 dcook         No idea why that's happening but could be remedied fairly easily (I think)
23:50 dcook         Although that su-na thing is...just ick
23:51 eythian       yeah, that needs to be renamed
23:51 dcook         yep
23:56 eythian       oh yeah, I have package building to do
23:58 dcook         3.14.3?
23:59 eythian       yeah
