From 54152268aea7fdeb0a48b8c1ced00dde61bb9c59 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Galen Charlton Date: Wed, 19 Feb 2014 20:04:22 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Bug 11644: (follow-up) add FIXME Arithmetic with monetary amounts is a *hard* problem -- or if not hard, at least super-fiddly, particularly since in theory a Koha database could have to deal with dozens of currencies if used by a large research library. This patch adds a FIXME implicitly commenting on the poor state of affairs of available monetary calculation modules on CPAN.
