Comment 3 Paul Poulain 2012-10-24 16:07:13 UTC
testing this patch I can't reproduce the bad behaviour before the patch.
What I did:
Koha > Plus > Cataloguing > default framework > reach 700 field > click on the button to open the popup "auth_finder" > entering "Jér" => I get only valid results, including, for example :
Auffret Jérôme Cécil 

With you patch applied, I get the same -valid- result

Did I miss something ?

Comment 5 Gaetan Boisson 2015-10-08 13:21:10 UTC
Just tested and couldn't reproduce the issue. Is it still valid?
Comment 6 Owen Leonard 2016-08-12 12:18:32 UTC
This appears to be fixed in master.
