The patch changes the sequence of cronjobs in the crontab example
file and in the cron.daily file of the packages.
This is why:
1) Renew automatically
... only when we can't renew, we want to
2) Calculate fines
... once the fine are calculated and charged
we can print the amount into the
3) Overdue notices
Before the change it could happen that you'd charge for an item,
that would then be renewed. Or that you'd try to print fine
amounts into the overdue notices, when they would only be
charged moments later.
To test:
- configure your system so you have items that should
- be charged with fines
- renew automatically
- configure your crontabs according to the example file
or switch the cron.daily in your package installation with
the new one
- configure your overdue notices so that one should be generated
<<items.fine>>
- Wait for the cronjobs or schedule them to run earlier
- Verify all is well and as it should be

Note that the cronjob only does something when the pref is set now.

This patch adds a new cron script automatic_renewals.pl and a new
entry in crontab.example.
To test:
1) You need a few issues, some with automatic renewal and some without.
2) Confirm that each time you run misc/cronjobs/automatic_renewals.pl
those issues are renewed that meet all of the following criteria:
- automatic renewal has been scheduled either by issuing rule or by
checkbox on the checkout page
- the number of allowed renewals isn't exceeded
- renewal isn't premature (No renewal before)
3) Confirm that all other issues are not affected.

The sharedate column is documented as having the following meaning:
"date of invitation or acceptance of invitation"
This patch adjust the new list-sharing code to stick with that
interpretation, as otherwise the column should have been renamed
to 'invite_expiration_date' or the like.
It also removes the "housekeeping" functionality from AddShare, as
otherwise the routine should have been named AddShareAndDoOtherStuff.
To prevent list shares from piling up, a new --list-invites flag
has been added to cleanup_database.pl. The default crontabs have
been modified to use the --list-invites flag by default.
To test
-------
[1] Make some list share invites and accept some, but now all of them.
[2] Wait 14 days (or more reasonably, manually edit the sharedate
values for the unaccepted shares to put them at least 14 days in the
past.).
[3] Run cleanup_database.pl --list-invites
[4] Verify that accepted shares remain, as to share invites that have
not yet reached more than 14 days of age.

Install the packages with this patch, observe the /etc/cron.daily/koha-common

This causes backups for the last two days to be stored by default. The
backups will go into /var/spool/koha.

By default the packages now set up the cron jobs to handle things like
overdues and email etc. By default, email is off, 'koha-email-enable'
and 'koha-email-disable' can manage this.
