Search results on ckan.net are mistakenly all 'open'

[adrian.pohl@…]

All package search results on ckan.net are labelled as 'open' even when their license is closed or unknown: ​http://ckan.net/package

[dread]

We have an unresolved issue with the display of the 'open data' icon that showed up when we upgraded ckan.net to the latest beta last week, but I didn't realise the search page ​http://ckan.net/package was showing all packages as open (the revision page and package pages seem fine).

Last week when I upgraded from 1.4.1 to 1.4.2beta, there was an exception thrown when loading the home page. The exception was in doing the isopen call. It was solved by making some code changes directly on the ckan.net server to make it an attribute query instead of function call. It was strange because this behaviour didn't occur on my machine and all the tests passed. Here are the manual patches on ckan.net (the application.js change is unrelated, by someone else):

I'm afraid to say I don't understand any of this: the faulty display of openness is triggered as removing the brackets turns the isopen() check into a check for the existence of the method. Reverting the changes on the server seems to work without generating exceptions. What exactly is the issue that was supposed to be fixed originally?
