Hi all,

The Template Toolkit OPAC branch has now been merged to Evergreen master.  
Release notes may be found at [1].

For those tracking master, some configuration changes are required to
get the template-based UI's working (tpac, acq, serials, conify, etc.).

1. /openils/conf/oils_web.xml is no more.  It has been replaced with
settings in the Apache configuration.  Of particular note are the
changes to Open-ILS/example/apache/eg_vhost.conf that affect the 
"<Location /eg>" and "<Location /eg/opac>" sections.

see:

git diff origin/rel_2_1:Open-ILS/examples/apache/eg_vhost.conf
origin/master:Open-ILS/examples/apache/eg_vhost.conf

2. All Template Toolkit templates are now installed into
/openils/var/templates and not /openils/var/web/templates.  Unless you
configure Apache otherwise, templates in /openils/var/web/templates/
will be ignored.

3. It's now necessary to install the Template::Plugin::POSIX and
Locale::Maketext::Lexicon Perl modules.

Happy testing!
