System requirements
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
Changes since 3.0:
|
|
|
|
* The minimum version of Perl required is now 5.8.8.
|
|
* There are a number of new Perl module dependencies.
|
|
Run ./koha_perl_deps.pl -u -m to get a list of
|
|
any new modules to install during upgrade.
|
|
|
|
Upgrades
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
The structure of the acquisitions tables have changed significantly
|
|
from 3.0.x. In particular, the budget hierarchy is quite different.
|
|
During an upgrade, a new database table is created called fundmapping
|
|
that contains a record of how budgets were mapped. It is strongly
|
|
recommended that users of Koha 3.0.x acquisitions carefully review
|
|
the results of the upgrade before resuming ordering in Koha 3.2.x.
|
|
|
|

|
======================

|
|
|
