Hi George,
The bug described in DS-2602 definitely exists in 5.2. So, it's really
up to you and your users can "live with it" for a brief period of
time...or you can manually apply the Pull Request to your local
installation to fix it locally, if you want to upgrade to 5.2 but don't
want to experience this bug. Again, here's the fix:
https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/pull/981
The 5.3 release is not yet scheduled, but the developers are actively
working on fixing several other minor bugs in 5.x. My hope is that 5.3
will be ready to release in the next few weeks. We are progressing
nicely on 5.3 at this point, but I cannot guarantee a particular release
date quite yet. The best I can do is say it should be out in July, and
hopefully in mid-July.

This is exactly what I am seeing. We were planning on going live with
DSpace 5.2 this week or next week. Would you recommend that I wait
until 5.3 is ready?

Hi George,
To me, this sounds very similar to DS-2602:
https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-2602
While 2602 describes this as "clicking on a letter", it's actually
performing the same sort of "jump to" that would occur if you entered
something into the "Starts with" box and pressed "Go".
I'm able to see this same general behavior on
http://demo.dspace.org/xmlui/ <http://demo.dspace.org/xmlui/> . Either
clicking on a letter or entering something in the "starts with" box
don't function properly for "Browse by Title" or "Browse by Issue
Date". But, it does still work for "Browse by Authors" and "Browse by
Subjects" (as far as I can see).
I can also see the same behavior in my local test instance.
However, if I (locally) apply the PR which fixes DS-2602, then
everything seems to work for me:
https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/pull/981
We are planning to fix this DS-2602 in a DSpace 5.3 release coming
soon (hopefully in the next few weeks here). So, I *think* this will
fix the problems you are seeing in 5.2.
Is this the same thing you are seeing? Or am I misunderstanding the
issue here?
Thanks,
Tim

Hi…
I am almost ready to cutover out DSpace 1.8.2 JSPUI system to
DSpace 5.2 XMLUI (Mirage 2 theme), but our user testing uncovered
a problem that I didn’t notice before.
Testers found that if they put anything in the input fields of
Browse by Title, Browse by Author, Browse by Date or Browse by
Subject, that the search results in a display of the whole index
and the starts on the last page of the index.
The fields that I am talking about are
<input
id="aspect_artifactbrowser_ConfigurableBrowse_field_starts_with">field
in the Browse by Title or Browse by Author or Browse by Subject
And
<select id="aspect_artifactbrowser_ConfigurableBrowse_field_year">
and <input
id="aspect_artifactbrowser_ConfigurableBrowse_field_starts_with">
in Browse by Date
Has anyone seen this before at their site? I am assuming that
there is something wrong with my index, but I did a ./dspace
index-discovery -b and it didn't help.
