[Evergreen-general] A missing template file in the Bootstrap OPAC

[Linda Jansová]

Dear all,

When switching on the Bootstrap OPAC in Evergreen 3.6.2, we have 
encountered the following error:

Mar 15 09:09:46 osok20 apache2[2246]: [perl:warn] [pid 2246] [client 
193.165.158.242:38716 <http://193.165.158.242:38716/>] egweb: template 
error: file error - opac/i18n_strings.tt2: not found

We have found out that the file in question (i18n_strings.tt2) is really 
missing (see 
https://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=Evergreen.git;a=tree;f=Open-ILS/src/templates-bootstrap/opac;h=5e0a76752dd0f3bc89b08c4b34119a442e4525f4;hb=HEAD) 
and so we added it as a symlink to the Bootstrap OPAC:

ln -s ../../templates/opac/i18n_strings.tt2 i18n_strings.tt2

Duplication of files, or rather how to avoid it, has been thoroughly 
discussed on Launchpad, see for example Jane's contribution to the 
discussion: 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1778972/comments/27 
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1778972/comments/27> 
(actually mentioning the file i18n_strings.tt2 as an example).

Nevertheless, in order to avoid encountering the error and having to add 
the symlink, shouldn't the file be copied to the Bootstrap theme also in 
the master?

Linda
