Hi Martin,
Thanks for that info! I have a pause account already, so maybe I should look at tracking down one of those people… I probably won’t have time to work on this for a while, but a long-term fix might be to take over maintenance of that module… I suppose I’m not a bad option as I find encryption interesting and who doesn’t want to maintain a CPAN module? :p David Cook Systems Librarian Prosentient Systems 72/330 Wattle St, Ultimo, NSW 2007 From: Renvoize, Martin [mailto:martin.renvo...@ptfs-europe.com] Sent: Monday, 22 February 2016 7:22 PM To: David Cook <dc...@prosentient.com.au> Subject: Re: [Koha-devel] NorwegianPatronDB One can request to take over maintenence of abandoned cpan modules. You need a pause account obviously to start with, then need to find someone to add your commit bit to the repository for the abandoned module. There are a few such people around in the various perl irc channels.

The CPAN module has issues which the Debian team have patched, and the CPAN author appears to have zero interest in patching the CPAN version (or talking about it at all). I wonder what CPAN’s policy is on abandoned modules… My point is that if you’re not using the Debian package, you’re that Crypt::GCrypt dependency appears to always fail now.

I don’t think a system preference is needed. Just a $debug prepend, perhaps? https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=15795 Sign it off, kill it, suggest a counter-patch, whatever. I do think this addresses the issue.

I’ve noticed the same thing. In fact, the “Unable to load Koha::NorwegianPatronDB” was added after the fact to stop the absence of those libraries causing Koha to die. I don’t necessarily see the point of having that warning there though, as most Koha users probably aren’t going to use the NorwegianPatronDB. Maybe that could have a system preference… so the warns (or the dying) only happens when the system preference is set?

I'm working on 3.22.02 and my logs are FILLED with the following warnings: Members.pm: Unable to load Koha::NorwegianPatronDB at /blurred/C4/Members.pm line 46., referer: http://blurred/cgi-bin/koha/acqui/booksellers.pl admin-home.pl <http://admin-home.pl> : Unable to load Koha::NorwegianPatronDB at /blurred/C4/Members.pm line 46., referer: http://blurred/cgi-bin/koha/admin/preferences.pl I look at the code, and beside wondering why that custom feature is so profoundly imbricated into master Koha, I was wondering what is not working. So I hacked the code to add verbose => 1 on the can_load call, and found that NorwegianPatronDB was not compiling because it was missing the following libraries: apt-get -y install libsoap-lite-perl apt-get -y install libcrypt-gcrypt-perl apt-get -y install libconvert-basen-perl Those modules are specified as NOT mandatory in 3.22. As such, I should not be flooded with Norwegian errors because they are not available, for a module which I and most do not care for. Or am I getting it wrong?
