[Koha] Barcode

[TSBC Librarian]

We gave up on the barcode module. Nothing we did could get it going. We
purchased printed barcodes from Leigh Mardon in Australia. So, as you say
that part is not being used.

I think I spoke too soon. MJ Ray's patch called barcodefix.patch
shows the following:

-use PDF::API2::PDF::Utils;
+use PDF::API2::Basic::PDF::Utils;

It seems that there is a PDF Utils module, by a different name.

What concerns me is that the printing and barcode stuff seem not
to have worked for quite a while. Either this functionality is
not being used by the Koha community or librarians are awfully
mum about system errors.
