A '|| true' at the end of the install chain swallowed any earlier failure, so a
transient/blocked apt step produced a successful build with no Koha in it (found
when an update rebuilt without the proxy CA). Steps are now separate, memcached and
cron are installed explicitly, and a final step refuses to produce an image that is
missing koha-create, memcached, cron, apache2ctl, zebrasrv, ... Quick Add's image
verifies yaz and python3 the same way.

- OPAC_URL / STAFF_URL let Quick Add build correct links behind a reverse proxy
- restore the Catalogue/Staff header links (lost when the init block was
rewritten) and verify them in the browser test

Quick Add:
- barcode choices: automatic (zero-padded, >= 7 digits), scan a pre-printed
sticker per item, or none for now; bulk 'give barcodes to items without one';
reserve a block of numbers and print the sheet ahead of time (link opens
Koha's range printer prefilled)
- default shelf saved on the server (shared by every device)
- item types follow Koha; CSP allows cover redirects; aria attrs fixed
Koha bootstrap:
- default lending rule (3 weeks, 25 items, 3 renewals, no fines) - a fresh
Koha refuses every checkout without one
- automatic library-card numbers (start at 1000001), fines off
- Koha's own auto-barcode off (one numbering scheme)
- patron card template (Avery 5371) and layout with a scannable barcode
- LIBRARY_CODE, SHELVES and ITEM_TYPES honoured at first install
Why 7 digits: decoded printed sheets - 7-digit Code 39 read back 40/40, 6-digit
all-numeric symbols were reinterpreted as Code 32 for ~1 in 10 values.

- Quick Add: choose the shelf/room (Koha LOC values) once; every scanned item
gets it and the choice is remembered; invalid values are ignored
- install.sh --status shows localhost in loopback mode; port probing works
without ss
- library/README.md; kiosk Readme.md add-on section and licenses

- BIND_ADDR (default 0.0.0.0) on every published port; 127.0.0.1 keeps the
stack reachable from the host only (Docker bypasses ufw, so this is the
actual control the kiosk addon's 'this kiosk only' choice uses)
- Koha serves its web-installer page with HTTP 200 before the database
exists, so 'port answers' was not 'ready': the entrypoint now writes
/run/koha-ready, the healthcheck requires it, and install.sh waits for
healthy + the quick-add health endpoint

A small standard-library Python service next to Koha:
- looks the code up via Z39.50 (yaz) then Open Library over HTTPS
- checks Koha for an existing copy (ISBN-10/13 and UPC/EAN aware)
- adds the record + an item with the next barcode via Koha's REST API
- scanner-friendly UI: auto-focus, audible feedback, duplicate card with
'add another copy', manual entry when nothing is found, undo, and the
barcode range to print labels for
Also: enable RESTBasicAuth, map 024$a to the ean column, wire the service,
port and credentials into compose/install.sh.

- Seed Avery 5160/5167 and Demco spine templates plus Spine, Spine+barcode
and Barcode-only layouts (Dewey call number split across lines)
- Default 942$c (item type) to BOOK so a Z39.50 import saves without edits
- Enable Plack includes in addition to the plain ones (static files/rewrites)
- Swap Apache from mpm_itk to prefork after koha-create (itk can't switch
users in a container and returned HTTP 500 on every page)
- Drop unneeded SETUID/SETGID caps
Verified live: staff login, Z39.50 search/import against a local server,
save + auto barcode, label PDF with Dewey spine + barcode.

- koha-shell -c wraps the command in single quotes, which broke the env
assignments; use runuser + env instead and verify tables were created
- koha-create requires mpm_itk, so keep it and grant the caps it needs
- stop any Apache started by koha-create before running it in foreground

- Run Apache as the instance user instead of mpm_itk AssignUserID
- Add Listen for the staff port; start zebra/indexer/worker/plack explicitly
- Tolerate koha-plack --enable returning non-zero under set -e
- install.sh: only fail on a crash loop, not a single restart

Compose stack (MariaDB + Koha built from the Koha project's Debian
packages), headless bootstrap replacing the web installer, seeded item
types and LoC Z39.50 server, and an install.sh that installs Docker,
generates passwords and waits for the site. End-to-end testing in progress.
