-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Please bear in mind that I'm a Debian n00b, but I have a wiki HOWTO on how to install this on Ubuntu: http://wiki.jon.geek.nz/index.php/Koha/Install
I imagine it isn't very different from installing on Lenny, and I plan to try this out soon on a virtual server. I also imagine that we could fairly easily split koha into two packages: koha - deps: libapache2-mod-perl2 mysql-server libalgorithm-checkdigits-perl libbiblio-endnotestyle-perl libcgi-session-perl libclass-accessor-perl libclass-factory-util-perl libdata-ical-perl libdate-calc-perl libdate-ical-perl libdate-manip-perl libdatetime-format-mail-perl libdatetime-format-strptime-perl libdatetime-format-w3cdtf-perl libdatetime-locale-perl libdatetime-perl libdatetime-timezone-perl libdbd-mysql-perl libdbi-perl libgd-barcode-perl libhtml-template-pro-perl libimage-magick-perl liblingua-ispell-perl liblingua-stem-perl liblist-moreutils-perl liblocale-gettext-perl liblocale-po-perl libmail-sendmail-perl libmarc-charset-perl libmarc-crosswalk-dublincore-perl libmarc-record-perl libmarc-xml-perl libmime-lite-perl libnet-ldap-perl libnet-z3950-zoom-perl libpdf-api2-perl libpdf-reuse-barcode-perl libpdf-reuse-perl libpoe-perl libschedule-at-perl libtext-charwidth-perl libtext-csv-perl libtext-csv-xs-perl libtext-iconv-perl libtext-wrapi18n-perl libtimedate-perl libtime-duration-perl libtime-format-perl libunix-syslog-perl libxml-dom-perl libxml-dumper-perl libxml-libxml-perl libxml-libxslt-perl libxml-namespacesupport-perl libxml-parser-perl libxml-perl libxml-regexp-perl libxml-rss-perl libxml-sax-perl libxml-simple-perl libxml-xslt-perl libyaml-syck-perl libhtml-scrubber-perl libdata-uuid-perl libemail-date-perl libparams-util-perl ........ (others from Makefile.PL) libcgi-sessions-serialize-yaml-perl libcgi-session-yaml-perl libclass-adapter-perl libsms-send-perl // not sure if these last four are packaged in lenny? // hence the extra dh-make-perl steps in above howto. // assuming we'd use Debian packages rather than rely on CPAN koha-zebra-daemon - deps: yaz idzebra-2.0 daemon koha The main koha package would be separate from an optional koha-zebra-daemon package for the separate zebra processes, which would postinst invoke a dpkg-reconfigure on the koha package to tweak its settings to use the zebra daemons. We can probably ask the questions needed for the perl Makefile.PL step in the packaging script and pass them in. We could probably curl our way through the web-based installer (at localhost:8080 by default). Potential conflicting sticking points in the Koha install instructions: - MySQL needs to be configured (allegedly) to treat everything as UTF8 with the following in /etc/mysql/my.cnf under [mysqld]: default-character-set = utf8 character-set-server = utf8 skip-character-set-client-handshake - Apache2 requires: Listen 8080 AddDefaultCharset UTF-8 - odd CPAN mods that may require manual installation, see above. Not sure if any of this helps... just that it might make an interesting "learn how to package something for Debian" project. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkkiKEIACgkQYkPxHmxlcMaLsACcC0PA2+RMh4vYZ68KYrjREGek QNsAnR9YN3HbdvpvjFehuPxSmVGbxkaO =cYoX -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
