I updated our jobs page and reviewed some pages of the Developer Guide.

Edmund told me how upgrade the LibreOffice on my machine:

sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:libreoffice/ppa && sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade -y && sudo apt clean

Worked like a charm!

I upgraded Jane. I remembered vaguely that there was some manual migration to do, but didn’t even try to check my changes after the last upgrade, simply did make_snapshot.sh and then restore.py, which told me that I had removed the Comment.published field from the database.

I also had a warning which I didn’t investigate deeper:

django/db/backends/mysql/base.py:101: Warning: (1265L, u"Data truncated for column 'regular_hours' at row 1")

Some optimizations in Lino Noi while sending our service reports for February.

• ServiceReports.insert_layout

• Session.set_widget_options(‘break_time’, hide_sum=True)

• cal.Room now inherits from users.TimezoneHolder Which has the challenge that TzH defines a chooser with a context argument “partner”. cal.Room does have a property “partner”, but Lino doesn’t support this. It says AttributeError: ‘property’ object has no attribute ‘name’.

• New field Session.room

• There was a place in working.models.welcome_messages where we still passed a lazily translated text as child of an ET element.
