Description Galen Charlton 2014-02-18 22:01:20 UTC 
The patch for bug 8437 added a system preference lookup to C4::Charset::SetMarcUnicodeFlag(), which in turn forces a dependency on C4::Context (c.f. bug 11730).

This is a bit of a wart, as there's nothing else in C4::Charset that is dependent on there being a Koha database.  It builds on yet another wart, introduced by commit 7eca37db, that overloads SetMarcUnicodeFlag() to set fields in the UNIMARC 100 that have nothing to do with the character encoding.

This should be split apart so that

- C4::Charset doesn't require a dependency on C4::Context
- code that handles anything beyond setting the character set flags is moved out of SetMarcUnicodeFlag

This is a quick patch and does not provide a complete fix for this issue.
Feel free to provide another one.

[PASSED QA] Bug 11790: Remove dependency C4::Context from C4::Charset

C4::Context is only used to retrieve a syspref value.
This patch moves the use of C4::Context to a require.

Test plan:
Try to reach the SetMarcUnicodeFlag subroutine (batchmod, add/update a biblio, etc.)
