[Koha-devel] zebra config files [IMPORTANT]

[paul POULAIN]

Hello folks,

working on unimarc for zebra, I've seen some strange things in etc zebra 
files :
- ccl.properties don't have popularity anymore
- bib1.att : att 9002 is biblioitemnumber, shouldn't it be biblionumber 
as in ccl.properties (biblionumber 1=9002) ?
- bib1.att : att 9910 Koha-Auth-Number and ccl.properties says 
Authority_number 1=8910

- the zebra files in etc don't reflect at all the ones in misc/zebra. 
The etc directory has been added by MJ installer. Which should we 
consider as the correct zebra config file ?
If we use etc (which I've nothing against, but we would have been 
pleased to have been warned), then how to handle UNIMARC settings during 
install ?
   * during perl Makefile.PL, we can't request the sysadm to know if 
the library want MARC21 or UNIMARC !
   * during web install, we won't probably have a write access to those 
files.

So, how to do the job ?
I imagined the script rebuild_zebra.pl, that does the stuff from the 
systempref, and can be run after the web install.
but it seems MJ choose another way. But now, I don't know how to solve 
the "unimarc setup" problem !

Any idea/comment welcomed.
