I'm doing the work importing the data i was talk some days ago, and the
first pass was to do a fresh koha installation.

But i'm also working on a koha debian package, so i've joined the two
jobs.


For now i'm tring to do a simple, very simple, koha package, so there's
no installation nor a debconf script.
Only files are put on correct places, i've write an example
configuration file and i've to write a README.Debian to make some
installation hints.
I've completely skipped the Z39.50 part. ;)


For now i've some problem. I've put perl C4 modules on /usr/lib/perl5,
and koha and opac things on /usr/share/koha/ and /opac/.
I've had to put on koha.conf the lines:

	opacdir=/usr/share/opac
	intranetdir=/usr/share/koha

to make all the thinkg work. There are so many undocumented
configuration options?! ;)

I've also moved the config file from /etc to /etc/koha, editing
accordingly the C4 modules.


The package install flawlessy, and seems work well.


I've only a doubt about the auth schema.
Apart that koha require me login twice (?!), i've see that i can create
account for every user via card number, but i can also create users,
via password link.
Ok, but now... modify user flags link refer to card number or users?!
These are the same thing?! ;)


I'm a bit confused... ;)


PS: you speak about AuthenDBI to make authentication, but i've not
installed some strange perl module or configured exotically apache, and
koha require me user and pass.
AuthenDBI is ``transparent'', so this is a feature?! ;)
