Command-line importing with marc2bre + pg_loader [1] in EG RC2
Virtual Image, the import went fine but the Global Flags settings
"Maintain 001-003-035 according MARC" = TRUE and "Cat: Use Internal
ID for TCN Value" = TRUE are being ignored.
In other words: I am getting a Record ID and TCN that are
derivatives of the control number in the imported 001 field: wrong.
Can this be a result of calling marc2bre with --idfield=001 rather
than --tcnfield=001 ?
As per my Global Flag settings: I don't want TCN's to follow from my
imported record but maybe this is a way to kick the Global Flag
settings into action when doing the command-line import?
Or should one of the pg_loader calling parameters be different to get
the desired Global Flag settings behaviour?
The odd thing is: using marc2are for authority records importing
[2], everything works as expected with Global Flag settings being
followed.
Help appreciated !

The "--idsubfield b" is a mistake 'cause the records are straight
MARC with the ID in 001; marc2bre gracefully ignored this mistake
