So now we can do this, add a line to our sources.list deb http://apt.workbuffer.org/ unstable main run apt-get update Then chris@ubuntu:~/git/koha.git$ sudo apt-get install cpan-libbundle-kohasupport-perl Reading package lists… Done Building dependency tree Reading state information… [...]

More profiling fun
Earlier this year I did a quick little post about profiling the koha code . And I noticed today that Devel::NYTProf (which I used) has been updated, and now has a module for use under mod_perl. So that’s my next mission, once I shake off this cold. Related Posts:A geeky way to spend your lunch [...]
