sucessfully without any of the dependency issues.but still unable to perform
som of the basic functionalitie like

1.Unable to search books using OPAC .it says No results found .does it have
any thing to with my database and encoding(iam using mysql5).

2.there is a koha wiki page "
http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=encodingscratchpad"
which talks about
"Changing Default Character Sets for MARC21 libraries using UTF-8"Is it
necessary that i should so it since it is specified for an earlies version
