10:56 * Dyrcona installs translations on his training server.
11:05 * dbs was just updating some translations on his production server
11:05 dbs 'tis the season!
11:05 Dyrcona :)
11:05 Dyrcona 'Tis the season to be poly.....glot.
11:08 Dyrcona I never can get the automatic updates to work on a Linux client.
11:08 Dyrcona I always have to download the tbz and unarchive it.
11:10 bshum Dyrcona: I didn't know that auto updates worked on anything other than the Win client.
11:10 bshum Or at least, I've never been that lucky
11:10 Dyrcona bshum: It tries, but fails.
11:12 Dyrcona I built new clients, too, because of the translations.
11:12 Dyrcona Think I'll see what fr-CA looks like.
11:14 Dyrcona Nifty. It requires more screen real estate. French is a verbose language.
11:15 Dyrcona Quite a few things are not translated.
11:15 Dyrcona Oh well. That was fun. Back to English. ;)
11:17 * Dyrcona wonders if his ADB French keyboard would work with his Linux laptop with an ADB to USB adapter.
11:17 bshum @quote search pretty
11:17 pinesol_green bshum: 2 found: #20: "<bshum> The staff client looks pretty in Armenian" and #96: "< jeff> and yes, i am pretty sure i just quoted..."
11:18 Dyrcona heh.
11:19 Dyrcona It certainly does.
11:19 Dyrcona @quote
11:19 pinesol_green Dyrcona: Try restarting apache.
11:19 Dyrcona @quote random
11:19 pinesol_green Dyrcona: Quote #21: "< Dyrcona> Writing software is more fun than working." (added by csharp at 09:29 AM, November 29, 2011)
11:21 Dyrcona Now, to set prohibit negative balance settings.
11:25 Dyrcona It's always fun having two staff clients open on different servers.
11:45 Bmagic true dat
12:02 bmills joined #evergreen
12:06 dbs Dyrcona: staff client updates on linux never worked for me either
12:07 dbs also, using the staff client in any non-English language is pretty much a non-starter, alas
12:19 * tsbere had several machines doing updates on linux successfully...
12:20 tsbere I wonder if the working ones were all 32 bit distributions
12:50 Dyrcona tsbere: Could be. I've only tried it on 64-bit systems.
12:51 Dyrcona @quote search Armenian
12:51 pinesol_green Dyrcona: 2 found: #20: "<bshum> The staff client looks pretty in Armenian" and #5: "<senator> the armenian regression sounds like a..."
12:51 bshum @quote get 5
12:51 pinesol_green bshum: Quote #5: "<senator> the armenian regression sounds like a spy novel" (added by bshum at 03:44 PM, February 22, 2011)
12:52 bshum That was a fun one
12:52 Dyrcona Yes, indeed.

13:43 jeff hrm. what was 96?
13:43 jeff @quote get 96
13:43 pinesol_green jeff: Quote #96: "< jeff> and yes, i am pretty sure i just quoted dick cheney in the context of reports on bibliographic data" (added by csharp at 07:04 AM, November 06, 2014)
13:45 jeff ah: < jeff> you run your reports on the metadata you have, not the mumble mumble mumble...
13:45 jboyer-isl hah, jeff++
13:58 Dyrcona Nope. Not gonna do it.....
14:01 * Dyrcona plays Beck, Mellow Gold, starting with track 1.
14:02 jeff vendor provides "full" files as well as "adds for the month" and "removals for the month"
14:02 jeff the "full" file is updated each month.
14:02 jeff the first month i look at, the full file contains all of the bibs in the "added this month" (good!), but ALSO contains some of the bibs in the "removed this month" (bad!)
14:03 * Dyrcona is not surprised.
14:03 Dyrcona We have a similar arrangement with a vendor, but we only get the full files once a year in January.
14:03 Dyrcona Actually, we can get them any time, but only get them once a year.
14:04 Dyrcona The monthly updates often tell us to delete records that we never received in the first place. :)
14:08 jeff @decide doveryai no proveryai or proveryai i proveryai
14:08 pinesol_green jeff: go with doveryai no proveryai
14:09 jeff pinesol is apparently still the trusting type.
14:11 Dyrcona Ха! Очень смешно, товарищ.

14:30 dbs oh, openils.widget.AutoWidget, it probably _should_ be easy to tell you to set the default ordering_agency value to the user's workstation OU.
14:32 tsbere dbs: set widgetValue when creating it?
14:33 dbs tsbere: maybe; it's confusing, as po/create.js already has "ordering_agency : { orgDefaultsToWs : true }" but that doesn't seem to be doing anything
14:34 tsbere dbs: Looks like AutoFieldWidget supports that (if widgetValue isn't provided)
14:35 tsbere dbs: Which may be your answer. Use Auto*Field*Widget instead of just AutoWidget?
14:38 dbs I dunno. Right now po/create.js uses an EditPane wrapped in an EditDialog
14:40 dbs E_TOO_COMPLEX_FOR_THIS_SIMPLE_BRAIN
14:47 mceraso For hold shelf expiration time, does the set time typically include closed days?
14:48 mceraso Or will it skip over days that are closed?
14:52 tsbere mceraso: If it does anything on that I imagine it is only in relation to "falls on a closed day"....and I don't recall if it checks that.
14:54 Dyrcona tsbere mceraso: It does. If the shelf_expire_time falls on a closed day, it moves to the next open day.
14:54 jeff it pushes it to the next open day if it falls on a closed day, but it does not make the shelf expire time include "X open days"
14:54 Dyrcona It does not count closed days in the middle, apparently.
14:55 mceraso Interesting! Of course, with the upcoming holiday, we are getting some questions
14:55 jeff also, if you're looking at an existing hold, you can usually tell the ones that were pushed to the next open day, because they have 23:59:59 in the time.
14:55 dbs fascinating, this.orgDefaultsToWs seems to be undefined when it hits _buildOrgSelector in AutoFieldWidget.js so it never sets the default
14:59 mceraso Many thanks tsbere, Dyrcona and jeff!
15:03 * dbs just sets it whenever this.widgetValue is null instead of worrying about this.orgDefaultsToWs
