huh. Ubuntu Saucy has Encode.pm 2.51 (http://packages.ubuntu.com/saucy/libencode-perl), so unless someone is running Jessie or Fedora or has manually upgraded their version of Encode, they're unlikely to hit the changed decode_utf8() behaviour |

dbs: Is there a solution that works whether one has upgraded or not? |
09:27 |
dbs |
Dyrcona: It would be great if someone not on one of those distros would test my branch and tell me how much breaks :) |
09:30 |
Dyrcona |
dbs: I only look at LTS releases from Ubuntu, so 14.04 would be the next that I experiment with. |
09:31 |
dbs |
Dyrcona: right, but if you have a 12.04 box at the ready it would be instructive to just check out the branch and run 'make check' on it |
09:32 |
Dyrcona |
dbs: Will do. |

i've been having "fun" with 13.10 since i updated on friday. twice now lightdm has switched from my user to "guest login" while i've been typing the password. once the kernel crashed, and once it just wouldn't boot at all. |

working/user/dbs/encode-changed-behaviour <- that branch? |
09:50 |
Dyrcona |
This is not good. |
09:51 |
Dyrcona |
I told osrf_control to stop-all, and cstore would not stop right away. |
09:51 |
Dyrcona |
I check the database afterward and there are three queries running from the 12th. |
09:51 |
Dyrcona |
I think this is related to upgrade scripts. |
09:53 |
Dyrcona |
Yeeup, select * from metabib.browse(....) |
09:55 |
* Dyrcona |
thinks someone else needs to have a good look at those upgrade scripts with "real" data, to make sure it isn't just my dev. environment. |
09:59 |
dbs |
Dyrcona: yessir |
10:00 |
Dyrcona |
dbs: How would I know if things are broken? That is, what should I look for after applying the branch? |
10:01 |
dbs |
Dyrcona: does make check |
10:01 |
dbs |
Dyrcona: does "make check" pass for starters? |
10:01 |
dbs |
And then if that passes, "eg_db_config <yada yada> --load-all-sample"? |
10:02 |
Dyrcona |
I'm testing this on a system that already has data loaded. |
10:02 |
dbs |
three queries from the 12th? Wow. |
10:02 |
paxed |
dbs: not sure. i know i haven't done such a post. i could try to compile one... |
10:03 |
dbs |
Dyrcona: ah, okay, my branch doesn't have any upgrade scripts for the database functions yet, so just "make check" or running "prove -l lib t" in the Open-ILS/src/perlmods directory would be great |
10:03 |
Dyrcona |
I'm about to paste the output from make.check, looks some tests fail. |
10:04 |
dbs |
paxed: yeah. I mean, I know you have a long list of bugs but some level of abstraction & prioritization would probably help us understand our failings |
10:04 |
dbs |
Dyrcona: thanks |

One of the tests that fails is entityize diacritics. |
10:05 |
dbs |
Dyrcona: perfect. that's what I was worried about. |
10:05 |
paxed |
dbs: for example, today i found out the "Serials" as done by both Eg and Koha does not really serve our needs - our expert on it said the Serials is more for scientific papers and such, rather than "periodicals" (as he said), or magazines. |
10:06 |
Dyrcona |
paxed: You'll just have to implement your own ILS, then. :) |
10:07 |
paxed |
Dyrcona: in java, perhaps? :) |
10:07 |
jcamins |
paxed: node.js is more fun. :P |
10:07 |
dbs |
paxed: yeah, given how much Evergreen's serials does (in several different ways) for serials, some insight into that would be interesting. Your expert wants to track at the article level or something? |
10:10 |
jcamins |
Koha has rudimentary support for analytics, but there's not a separate module. Just a few tools you can use to simplify creation of article-level records. |
10:10 |
paxed |
dbs: i'm not sure, it could be his workflow, too. one of the things that is missing is the ability to place a hold on specific magazine number? say, "Pet Care, 2012, 10" |
10:10 |
Dyrcona |
paxed: Of course, in Java. It would only cost 1.4 billion euros! |

heh, no mention of ESB, EIP, POJO, REST, JMS, etc. I can't take it seriously as a Java project. |

Dyrcona |
See, this all reinforces my conclusion from yesterday: "Software sucks!" |
10:21 |
Dyrcona |
Well, I guess most bridges collapsed for the first hundred or so years that people started building them, so we've got a few years before we know what we're doing. |
10:21 |
jboyer-isl |
Eh, there are types of data where sql works fine, and some where it doesn't. I don't think there's going to be a good point to say "ok, throw away those SQL books, we won't ever need that old thing again!" |

Damn! Why do all graphic novels have to go in Young Adult? |

jboyer-isl |

mumbles something derogatory about bun heads. |

Dyrcona: We had a few donated at my last lib that frazzeled some buns, I think they've got some in Adult now. :D |

jboyer-isl: PostgreSQL has this feature where you can throw in a blob of data and get an OID back that can be listed in a relational table for later retrieval. |
10:24 |
Dyrcona |
jboyer-isl: PostgreSQL is officially an object/relational database. |
10:25 |
jcamins |
jboyer-isl: I was thinking of BLOB-ish data, but databases with staggering volumes of non-relational data also probably doesn't require an RDBMS. |
10:25 |
dbwells |
paxed: looking at the "Anna" record you posted, something is not working as designed. When you click on a summary (like "2013:1, 2013:3 - 2013:5, 2013:11"), you should get a list of issuances, and that is where you can place issuance-level holds. |
10:25 |

10:27 |

to set it up, follow the "prev" link from that documentation page to seoe the section on administration |
10:28 |
dbwells |
paxed: My only guess would be that your distributions don't have a "Display Grouping", but I think you can set a library-level default for that as well. |

hello Evergreen Community, can you tell me if EG can be in Arabic? I saw this listserv message http://list.georgialibraries.org/pipermail/open-ils-general/2011-March/004343.html but as you see its from 2011 |
14:31 |
* bshum |
imagines it's possible, but doubts we've tested RTL extensively |
14:31 |
bshum |
(or at all) |
14:31 |
JennB |
ok, thanks Ben! |
14:32 |
bshum |
In theory, if we had the translations for arabic, we could try reviewing various parts of the GUI for right to left compatibility. |
14:32 |
Dyrcona |
Well, I've processed some records recently that had Arabic in them. |
14:32 |
|
hopkinsju joined #evergreen |

* bshum |
imagines we'd have similar quirks like Koha does with RTL CSS problems. |
14:32 |
JennB |
and the records were OK? |
14:33 |
JennB |
I have a library in Jordan asking so Id imagine all would need to be in Arabic |
14:33 |
Dyrcona |
JennB: Some had issues, but I shared them with gmcharlt, and IIRC he updated MARC::Charset and I believe they work now. |
14:33 |
JennB |
ah, good to know Dyrcona |
14:33 |
Dyrcona |
You will need the latest MARC::Charset from CPAN. |
14:34 |
JennB |
ok, thanks |
14:34 |
Dyrcona |
Of course, these were only a handful, and only parts of the records were in Arabic, like proper names. |
14:35 |

As for the user interface, like bshum said, that's a bigger job. |

Are there plans to have the 655 fields be validated in the future so we can keep what comes with the bib record and they will be useful in a controlled VEL vocabulary context? As opposed to keep them and not have a way of checking them against the controlled VEL vocabulary. |

And yes I asked this question on the listserv but haven't gotten a response and I have a library waiting for a response. Thanks. |

getting it out there lets people know there's a need/interest |

wasn't sure if it was something like that or some standard he'd never heard of. :) |

Dyrcona: Ummm - I'm not sure - does it make a difference? |

csharp: Terms indicating the genre, form, and/or physical characteristics of the materials being described. A genre term designates the style or technique of the intellectual content of textual materials or, for graphic materials, aspects such as vantage point, intended purpose, or method of representation. A form term designates historically and functionally specific kinds of materials distinguished (1 more message) |

roses: validation (iiuc) is validating against your authority file - do you have those genre headings entered? |
15:12 |
roses |
csharp: Had to call the librarian/cataloger who asked the question and we are not sure. If they have been downloaded - they (655) should validate? |
15:13 |
roses |
csharp: 650 validates. |

looks like stock Evergreen uses '155','180','181','182','185' from loaded auth records to validate 655 |
15:21 |
dbs |
based on authority.control_set_authority_field anyway |
15:22 |
dbs |
Also from the control map for the staff client -- roses ^^ |
15:24 |
roses |
dbs: That helps a whole bunch. |
15:25 |
roses |
dbs: That 655 can be validated against loaded authority records - right? |

was going to dig into the code but got sidetracked ;-) |
15:26 |
roses |
csharp: The librarian/cataloger that was asking is from Georgia and used Georgia Pines. |
15:26 |
dbs |
roses: that's the idea. so if it isn't, it's either a bug in our code, or in the auth records, or in my understanding :) |
15:26 |

Also note that that is Evergreen master, I haven't dug into older code |

roses: is it Sara? If so, tell her hello ;-) |

csharp: Yes it was Sara. She's my troublemaker :-) |
16:06 |
roses |
csharp: She is also our advanced cataloger trainer and I think she is super - even though she asks difficult questions (to me a non-cataloger) |

csharp: That's even better to have that connection. Thanks for all of your help today. |

Alrighty… and now for the question I just inadvertently posted to #code4lib... |
17:07 |
hopkinsju |
I cannot for the life of me figure out this Org Unit Hiding Depth setting. Anyone using this that can advise? |
17:08 |
hopkinsju |
I'm trying to get a basic handle on how it works and I can't seem to get it to have any effect at all. |
17:09 |
hopkinsju |
In the description of the setting it says it bases the users OU on the ol parameter. Is that still used? It seems like TPAC just throws it away most of the time. |

I'm really wondering if it's working at all. |
17:17 |
tsbere |
hopkinsju: I think it works with physical_loc only |
17:17 |
tsbere |
so if you don't have one you see no effect |
17:17 |
hopkinsju |
tsbere: What's a physical_loc? |
17:18 |
tsbere |
hopkinsju: An attempt to say "the user is physically at...." though we use it with subdomains to say "this subdomain represents..." |
17:18 |
tsbere |
I believe it can be set with a url param in addition to IP based and apache-level configs |
17:19 |
hopkinsju |
tsbere: Any chance of documentation on this? Particularly the apache config |
17:20 |
tsbere |
hopkinsju: At the apache level you set an environment variable named "physical_loc"...for that matter for your testing just add physical_loc=id to the query string (add a ? or & or whatever before it as needed) |
17:20 |
hopkinsju |
Gotcha |
17:21 |
tsbere |
we do some fancy rewrite tricks to set all of that stuff for our subdomains, but you can also just hardcode it if you have widely varying configs |
17:22 |
tsbere |
hopkinsju: Once you have physical_loc set then the hiding depth (if >1) says "start the tree at that depth". 1 would be the "System" in a standard setup, I believe (with 0 being "everything" and 2 being "branch within the system") |
17:22 |
tsbere |
err, >=1 |
17:24 |
hopkinsju |
tsbere: Thanks a lot. That really helps. |
