[Koha] Records not showing in OPAC and multiple biblionumbers

[Elaine Bradtke]

The bug report  says:

If someone edits the framework to make any field of the 999 visible,
then any edit to any field of the MARC record results in a duplicate
999 with the biblionumber repeated.

I just checked our framework,  Our 999 subfields are hidden. . . . Which
makes me wonder if the problem has somehow gotten worse in 3.10?

will add a note to the bug report.
