4 Discussion
FN (10.6.2010): I recognized that the permission check for linked glossary terms is differently handled by learning modules and glossaries. If a term is linked by a learning module, it is displayed by the learning module presentation GUI and read access to the learning module is enough to display the term. Then the media in the terms definition should be accessible, too. If a term is linked by another glossary definition, then the links leads to the original definition and the permission is checked there (which may fail).
JF 12 Jul 2010: We highly appreciate the improvements. Fred, please commit the changes to the trunk. We will test it there and decide on making it part of a 4.0.x release later.
5 Follow-up
FN (13 Jul 2010): Committed to the 4.1 trunk (revision 24584) and extended the installation description.
FN (2 Dec 2010): Patch for ILIAS 4.0.10 includes further bug fixes done for ILIAS 4.1.3
