[OPEN-ILS-DEV] Different Everygreen search screens

[swills at beyond-print.com]

Hi Robert,

It looks as if someone clicked the "Enable TPAC" toggle which is on the third
column of the staff client 'home page'.  The clients are now toggle in opposite
state of one another.   The 'good' one has TPAC enabled.

That's my guess anyway.
