Extended help on the alternate circulation rules
form to list the order of issuingrules lookup as
follows:
same library, same patron type, same item type</li>
same library, same patron type, default item type</li>
same library, default patron type, same item type</li>
same library, default patron type, default item type</li>
default library, same patron type, same item type</li>
default library, same patron type, default item type</li>
default library, default patron type, same item type</li>
default library, default patron type, default item type</li>
This includes modifying two routines in C4::Circulation to
follow this order: GetLoanLength() and GetIssuingRule().
The reason for this change is to have Koha exhaust all issuingrules
possibilities for a branch before checking the rules for
the default branch - this is consistent with what an admin
might expect from looking at the issuingrules forms, which display
settings a branch at a time, and is more consistent with how
circulation rules should work for indepdendent branches.

Issuing rules are now explicitly sorted by patron category,
then item type. The default patron category sorts last; within
a list of item types for a given patron category, the default
item type sorts last. This follows the order in which
the issuing rules are applied.
Since the primary sort is patron category, also moved that
to be the first column in the issuing rules table.

Improvements to smart-rules.pl to allow it to
replace issuingrules.pl.
* standardized "borrower type" to "patron category"
* made default item type and patron category ('Any')
translatable
* regularized construction of parameters for rule
deletion operatrion

The first new table is branch_borrower_circ_rules.
This table is used to store circulation rule attributes
that apply to a combination of patron category and branch
across all item types. The one attribute defined is
maxissueqty, which sets the maximum number of loans
that a patron of a given category can take out at a given
branch.
Note that branch_borrower_circ_rules is for attributes
that apply across all item types. This means that
issuingrules.maxissueqty has a different meaning: it is
the maximum number of loans per branch, category, and item type;
if issuingrules.itemtype is '*', that is a *default*
circulation rule used if no more specific rule is found.
The new table will allow the implementation of total
loan limit across item types without making the wildcard
'*' in issuingrules ambiguous. Specifically, if branchcode,
categorycode, or itemtype is issuingrules is '*', that will now
always mean a loan rule to be applied if a more specific rule cannot be found.
Setting issuingrules.itemtype to '*' will no longer mean
to set a total limit across item types for maxissueqty.
The remaining new tables are used to store default
rules for the default branch, the default patron category,
or both:
default_branch_circ_rules - for a given branch, specify
the rule to apply if no more specific rule on
branch and patron category is found (i.e. patron category is default)
default_borrower_circ_rules - for a given patron category,
specify the rule to apply if no more specific rule
on branch patron category is found (i.e., branch is default)
default_circ_rules - global default if no more specify rule
on patron category and branch is available. Note that this
table is constructed so that it can have at most
one row.

The basic problem is that the SIP logic doesn't know where the
input is coming from. It might be a RAW socket, and it might
be telnet. If it is telnet, although the specs declare a
character set (from MS, unfortunately), they do not specify a telnet
implementation. So you might get telnet handshaking or
renegotiations in the middle of an otherwise peaceful session and
these should not be taken as SIP commands. Patches include a move
towards using $CRLF from Socket to avoid problems w/ foreign platform
mapping \n and \r to \015 or \012.

When edting only a part of the patron record (e.g.,
the library use section or the alternate address), the
zipcode and city were cleared due to an error in
form processing. Now the city and zipcode are set
only of those fields are actually in the submitted form.

The template for the guarantor search implies that
the zipcode is one of the values to be copied from
guarantor to guarantee. Fixed so that the transfer
can actually take place.

Prior to this patch, rebuild_zebra.pl -z was effectively
hanging on to a lock on the zebraqueue table, preventing
other scripts from inserting new entries into the table.
This had the effect of causing circulation operations
to time out.
Refactored by having rebuld_zebra.pl pull the active
queue into memory, then mark entries done by zebraqueue.id.
Consequently, rebuild_zebra.pl should no longer
block adding new entries into zebraqueue.

Created a new script, sync_items_to_marc_bib.pl,
to replace the item tags embedded in the MARC bib
records with fresh versions taken from the items table.
This script should be run as follows:
maintenance/sync_items_to_marc_bib.pl --run-update
Assuming that you're using Zebra, rebuild_zebra.pl -b -z
or rebuild_zebra.pl -b -r should be run after running
this script.
This script should be run if you have used
link_bibs_to_authorities.pl prior to the first
patch for bug 2258. It can also be used if there
is any reason to suspect that the embedded item tags
do not reflect the items table.
With this script I am creating a maintenance/ subdirectory of
misc/ to hold scripts that are meant to fix problems
in the database but are not (or should not be, anyway) necessary
for regular use.

This patch modifies 13 HTML templates and includes that have lines in them longer than 998 characters. Lines this long are known to break git.
I believe that none of these change behaviour at all, but I'm concerned about one of them. It adds whitespace (carraige returns) inside a <title> tag. I'm not certain that all browsers will deal with this OK.
No documentation changes necessary here.

If a MARC bib is modified by this batch job,
do not duplicate the item tags embedded in
it (e.g., 952 for MARC21). When modifying
a bib record, any embedded item tags must
be removed before calling ModBiblio - perhaps
this should be moved to ModBiblio itself.
Also removed an error in the job's help text.

The issue was that the index for itemtype is different depending
on whether you're using item-level or bib-level itemtypes. This
patch detects the system choice and sets the index properly
For documentation, please indicate that as part of profiling,
staff can refer to the AdvancedSearchTypes system preference to
choose where to draw the advanced search 'Types' from. Currently
this is implemented as a choice, between itemtypes and ccodes,
but it's been designed to work with any authorised value so long
as an index exists for searching by that authorised value.
By default, and if this syspref doesn't exist, it will pull from
itemtypes as before.
C4::Reserves::_Findgroupreserves(), instead of
getting all requests for a bib, now gets only the
requests that are title-level (itemnumber is null)
or for that specific item. This prevents an item
from filling an item-level hold for a different item
attached to the same bib, which is the expected
behavior for item-level holds.

Pagination was working for searching, but the "type" and batch_id
were not making it onto subsequent pages (i.e., the 2nd page of "B"
names). This corrects the problem with the base URL passed to
pagination_bar.

The section in KOHA_CONF was moved inside <config> and renamed
<ldapserver>. Perldoc updated to correspond. Tested with local
LDAP and existing test (t/db_dependent/Auth_with_ldap.t).
Patch can be applied with confidence based on comparison of 2 dumps:
perl -e 'use C4::Context; use Data::Dumper; my $context=C4::Context->new("./old_config.xml"); print Dumper ($context->{server}->{ldapserver}),"\n";'
and
perl -e 'use C4::Context; use Data::Dumper; my $context=C4::Context->new("./new_config.xml"); print Dumper (C4::Context->config("ldapserver")),"\n";'
These dumps reflect the way Auth_with_ldap accesses configuration info before and after.
