10:37 Dyrcona Software tests are nice, but it's no fun waiting 15+ minutes for the software tests to finish when you install somthing from CPAN.
10:42 jeff cpanm --notest Package::Here
10:42 jeff :-)
10:43 rfrasur On first read, I read "no fun waiting 15+ minutes for the software tests to finish while you watch something on CSPAN."
10:44 rhamby there are some CPAN modules with so many layers of dependencies I begin to feel like I'm installing a tower of jenga blocks
10:44 Dyrcona :)
10:44 Dyrcona rfrasur++ # But, it's no fun watching CSPAN, either.
10:45 rfrasur Oh, I know.  That's why it nearly made complete sense.
10:45 Dyrcona rhamby: Yes, I have a similar feeling.
10:46 Dyrcona Related: Manjaro, at least with the default package repositories, have fewer Perl modules available as packages than Debian or Ubuntu.
10:47 Dyrcona rhamby: Installing things via Node gives me a much worse feeling.....
10:48 rhamby dyrcona: I was catching up on an email thread on another opensource project the other day about stability of how they do releases and one statement was almost exactly "at least we don't use node"
10:49 rhamby I'm saying it's correct or not as a sentiment but it's certainly out there.
10:51 Dyrcona Yeah.
10:52 Dyrcona I was just adding the Perl modules that I need to run my parameter dump script on my new laptop. It works. The "funny" thing is just after I opened the spreadsheet, "Too Much Information" by The Police came up on my playlist. :)
10:53 Dyrcona jeff: Yeah, I always forget --notest, but at the same time, with an ARM laptop, tests are probably a good idea.
10:54 rfrasur Too_Much_Information--; The_Police++

10:57 Dyrcona Speaking of things I'm not fond of: I actually set up a user systemd service unit to start ssh-agent whenever I login on my laptop. It seemed like the most appropriate way to do that.
11:43 jeff The KKR thunderdome results are in: the RBdigital platform is going away.
11:47 rfrasur Hmm.  Oh.
12:05 jihpringle joined #evergreen
12:05 gmcharlt oh wow
12:06 gmcharlt any details available?
12:07 rhamby KKR has a brief statement out but lacking details
12:07 rhamby bit more here https://media.kkr.com/news-releases/ne​ws-release-details/kkr-acquire-rbmedia
12:08 rhamby @gmcharlt ^
12:08 pinesol rhamby: I see nothing, I know nothing!
12:08 rhamby gmcharlt ^
12:08 gmcharlt hmm, that's the 2018 acquisitions PR
12:09 rhamby yep
12:09 rhamby not sure about the date discrepancy, maybe just finalized?
12:10 gmcharlt looks like 2018 they bought RBMedia, completed purchase of OverDrive on 6/9/2020
12:10 rhamby oh, I'm brain dead, RBdigital is going away as is being removed as a brand?
12:11 rhamby I took that as going away as in incorporated inot kkr
12:11 gmcharlt ah, here we go: https://twitter.com/JillRhud​y/status/1275459776110002179
12:11 rhamby (and obviously I somehow missed the purchase when it happened)
12:11 rhamby gmcharlt++
12:11 rhamby so yeah, the brand is going away
12:13 jeff both Recorded Books and OverDrive have released a communication to libraries.
12:14 rhamby in the darklands one download will rule them all
12:14 jeff the RBdigital platform is going away, some content will move to OverDrive quickly, other things like the RBdigital Zinio partnership may take longer to work out.
12:15 rhamby I always liked Zinio but found it was hard to get users to adopt.  I wonder how it's faring these days.
12:48 JBoyer It's almost as if groups of venture capitalists can't be depended on to run library services in the long term.

13:21 Dyrcona KKR was part of the group that gutted Toys R Us for profit. Unlike the other two members of that little consoritum, they do have a history of hanging on to their acquisitions.

13:55 jeff it's not that I expect a regex match on acp.barcode to be *fast*, but I shake my fist at the planner or whatever is making it this *slow*
13:55 jeff oh hey, that small optimization seems to have helped.
13:56 jeff (or maybe it was the ranting here)
13:56 jeff (it wasn't)
13:57 Dyrcona regext searches have a tendency to skip indexes, don't they?
