#108 No rule to make target `citationlistx/*.html', needed by `al

This problem seems to be fixed now, see revision 769. I can build the code from svn on Debian without problems.

Mathieu Malaterre — Thu, 04 Oct 2012 07:12:52 -0000

Apparently the POD in refdb-perlmod is buggy. The generated man page says:

POD ERRORS
Hey! The above document had some coding errors, which are explained below:

Around line 2044:
=cut found outside a pod block. Skipping to next block.

refdb does not compile on debian

refdb does not compile after libdbi-0.8.4 install

akusmin — Mon, 19 Sep 2011 20:40:53 -0000

After Installation of libdbi-0.8.4, and compilation and installation of libdbi-drivers 0.8.3-1, compilation of refdb (revision 718, but also revision 751) fails.
see attached file for details.

keyword scan too unspecific

Markus Hoenicka — Fri, 18 Mar 2011 09:15:59 -0000

The keyword scan needs to be reworked as it is too unspecific. If there is a keyword "rat", the keyword will be assigned to articles that e.g. contain the word "regenerative" in their title. The code should be reworked to match only entire words

RISX of a conference entry should use "periodical name"

Torsten Bronger — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 08:48:22 -0000

Currently the T2 field is used as publication title in RISX exports of CONF entries. According to Refman specs, this is the conference name, however, the proceedings title seems to be more appropriate which is in the JO/JF field.

AU field: Once capitalized, always capitalized

akusmin — Tue, 19 Jan 2010 19:59:32 -0000

I add citations to my RefDB databases using the command "addref foo.ris "
where foo.ris is the file containing citations. When in one file there are two citations sharing the same author,
and if in the first such citation the author name is capitalized (FOONAME,F.B while in the second it is not (Fooname,F.B) then,
after citations are added, the command getref returns the *capitalized* author name for both citations.

Moreover, if there are three citations sharing the same author, the first citation contains AU field Fooname,Frank B. the second FOONAME,F.B
and the third Fooname,F.B, then, after adding references from this file, again, the command getref returns FOONAME,F.B.

Why I am complaining:

I get citations from ISI Web of Science, as you know, until 1995/1996 Author names and Titles are capitalized. Thus, some of citations
have capitalized names and some not. When I make bibliography for my LaTeX document, sometimes
I see capitalized author names.

May be this is already fixed in the SVN version? could you please check?
Thank you.

P.S.
Attached is the zip file with three ris files. In ex1.ris the citation with AU Stuhrmann, H.B, the second file contains one more citation (the very first) where AU has STUHRMANN,H.B, and the third files contains three citations, where the 1st has STUHRMANN,Heinrich.B.
