[Koha] Bulk import problems in 3.0 alpha

[Bünzli Daniel]

Hello,

I have problems in importing data with bulkmarkimport and fail to see  
were they actually come from. The file notices.marc (see http://erratique.ch/tmp/notices.marc) 
  contains 12 record in utf-8 encoded UNIMARC. That is characters  
26-29 of 100 $a are set to "50##" (where # is space) which should mean  
utf-8 encoded AFAIK. Here's what I get when I try to bulk import it :

> > ./bulkmarcimport.pl -c UNIMARC -d -file notices.marc
> deleting biblios
> .attempting to use non-existent class sorting routine
> ....no mapping found for [0x96] at position 2 in BÖSIGER  
> g0=ASCII_DEFAULT g1=EXTENDED_LATIN at /opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/

> .no mapping found for [0x85] at position 1 in Åren utan nåd

> ERROR: failed to perform character conversion for record 6
> ......
> 12 MARC records done in 2.88230204582214 seconds

The thing is that I don't know if this is a problem of my records  
(though I know of one other ILS that imports them fine), of Koha, of  
MARC::Charset or of my perl installation.

Besides when I do a rebuild_nozebra I get the following errors :

Can anyone provide a hint ?

Another thing is that I find it quite hard to actually see the data I  
import besides trying to search it. Is there a way to get lists of the  
data I have (say browse my catalog by title), know the number of  
records I have, browse my thesaurus and authors alphabetically ?

Thanks for your answers,

Daniel
