CAcert Code Development list.

[Bernhard Fröhlich <bernhard AT cacert.org>]

Hi Jan, hi Wytze,

as I already wrote in a comment to 
https://bugs.cacert.org/view.php?id=1456 it would make sense to install 
the coapnew.php script on some non-critical system, so it's easier to 
maintain.

Which non-critical system are currently available? Is 
community.cacert.org available to host such a little script?

Also, on test.cacert.org the TCPDF package necessary for coapnew.php 
does not seem to be installed. And maybe other things are also missing, 
see the installation info in the script's header:

> **  Installation:
> **     std PHP lib:
> **         recode_string(), zcompress() (PHP-ZLIB) only used if present
> **         zcompress (pdf compression) gives performance loss, disable it?
> **     PDF generation package (tcpdf/tcpdf.php):
> **         TCPDF package + define the TCPDF_DIR install directory (GPL)
> **         tcpdf package is patched for text subtypes see tcpdf diff file.
> **         Add free embedding zapfdingbat font
> **         ttf2pt1 -F zapfdinbats.ttf -> zapfdingbats.utf metrics file
> **         php -q makefont.php zapfsdingbats.ttf zapfdingbats.utf -> 
> .php,.ctg.z,.z
> **         install files: zapfdingbats.{php,z,ctg.z} in tcpdf/fonts dir
> **     UTF8 package for unicode (utf8/native/core.php):
> **         utf8_substr() only when package is found and needs to be used
> **     transliteration (and abbreviation):
> **         if full name has non-ascii char(s) try to use: utf8_to_ascii()
> **         First from transtab.php package which is Markus Kuhn compliant
> **           transtab.php is CAcert php package.
> **           Transtab depends on on its turn on UTF8 package.
> **         Secondly if not found utf8ascii lib tried (artistic license)
> **           http://sourceforge.net/projects/phputf8
> **           .../utf8_to_ascii-0.3.tar.gz
> **           see UTF8_ASCII definition for location requirements
> **         Thirdly: if not found transliteration feature is disabled.

Can anyone install these rerequesites, so we can try to debug the script 
on the testserver? And probably this should be included on 
https://infradocs.cacert.org/systems/test.html also...

Kind regards
Ted
