RELEASE NOTES FOR KOHA 3.12.2
22 Jul 2013
========================================================================
Koha is the first free and open source software library automation package
(ILS). Development is sponsored by libraries of varying types and sizes,
volunteers, and support companies from around the world.
The website for the Koha project is
http://koha-community.org/
Koha 3.12.2 can be downloaded from:
http://download.koha-community.org/koha-3.12.02.tar.gz
Installation instructions can be found at:
http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Installation_Documentation
OR in the INSTALL files that come in the tarball
Koha 3.12.2 is a bugfix/maintenance release.
It includes 9 enhancements and 50 bugfixes.
New dependencies
======================
* Library::CallNumber::LC
IMPORTANT: in order to fix annoying bugs related to call numbers a new
dependency is introduced for this release (Library::CallNumber::LC). This
means people using packages will have to do
$ sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
instead of the normal
$ sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get upgrade
As usual, people building from sources should run
$ ./koha_perl_deps -m -u
to check for missing dependencies before running the upgrade process.
