Include Item Status in marc_export Items Export

The marc_export script now includes the item status in the 852 subfield s when exporting items.

Ability to Reingest Certain Record Attributes In pingest.pl

An option, --attr, has been added to the pingest.pl support script that allows the user to specify which record attributes to reingest. It can be used one or more times to specify one or more attributes to ingest. It can be omitted to reingest all record attributes. This option is ignored if the --skip-attrs option is used.

The --attr option is most useful after doing something specific that requires only a partial ingest of records. For instance, if you add a new language to the config.coded_value_map table, you will want to reingest the item_lang attribute on all of your records. The following command line will do that, and only that, ingest:

$ /openils/bin/pingest.pl --skip-browse --skip-search --skip-facets \
    --skip-display --attr=item_lang
