Other Linux distributions can't use the Debian packages to start with,
which is primarily where my concern lies :)

It's a problem in other linux distributions as well, such as openSUSE.

The only hard coded references to files not installed by Koha are the 
idzebra modules and the DejaVu fonts.  (Having the wrong location for 
the fonts causes failures in "make test")


Perhaps you should do something like "find / -xdev -name mod-dom.so 
2>/dev/null" and "find / -xdev -name DejaVuSans.ttf 2>/dev/null" to find 
out where they are.

Greetings,

I got my git dev install running on Debian Jessie.


Is anyone aware of outstanding issues running this
configuration?

This patch is in 3.18.06.2, which is in the repo now.

I'm not, however I've only tested package installation, I haven't
actually brought a system up to running. So you should give it a go and
see how it works out for you :)

Stable packages are targeted for everything. I'm going to replace the
content of that page with this one pretty soon:
http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Talk:Koha_on_Debian#Debian_Packages_on_Koha

I'd kinda prefer that you review the new version and update that if you
feel things need correction :)

[Koha] Running koha on Debian Jessie.

2015-04-29 Thread Alex King
I have been given the task of checking an install of koha running on a 
recently installed Debian server.


The instance is a 3.19 snapshot installed from a deb from 
koha-community.org running on Debian 7.7 (Wheezy).


I'd like to upgrade the OS to Debian 8 (Jessie), which has recently been 
released as stable.


I came across a message from Robin, which I can't find now, to the 
effect that a dependency issue required a patch which was due to land in 
3.18.06.


So after I take a backup, I'm going to (up)grade koha to 3.18.06 and the 
OS to 8.0.  Is anyone aware of outstanding issues running this 
configuration?


The wiki documentation at 
http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_Debian seems out of date, 
further down the page it talks about squeeze and even lenny. I assume 
stable packages are targeted for wheezy or both wheezy and squeeze.


If there are no objections, I'll update that page to refer to wheezy 
instead, and put a note to the effect that it should be possible to run 
it on jessie but as of April 2015 it's a less well tested configuration 
than running on Wheezy.


Thanks,
Alex
