Description Nick Clemens 2021-02-27 17:24:50 UTC
The job reports errors when deleting items.

The issue seems to be that Koha::Object->delete claims in the POD to return -1, 0, or 1 as a result, but it in fact returns the Object itself on a successful deletion

The errors are reported as:
ERROR DELETING ITEM 501740: Koha::Item=HASH(0x55ce407a1a78)

To recreate:
1 - Find or create a record with some items
2 - Ensure those  items can be deleted (not on loan, etc.)
3 - Edit the record leader and set position 5 to 'd'
4 - perl misc/cronjobs/delete_records_via_leader.pl -i -v --confirm
5 - Deletion succeeds, but reports failure on items
