[Koha] Patron Club feature

[Katrin]

Hi Krishna,

I think this bug is the reason why the patron clubs didn't install properly:

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=19067

It's on his way into the next stable releases.

For DBMS, see here: 
https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_Debian#Debian_Packages_on_Koha

'Koha does not work well with MySQL 5.7 which is shipped with Ubuntu 
16.04. use MariaDB instead'

Hope this helps,

Katrin
