Package: libc6 Version: 2.3.1-10 Severity: normal Tags: sid In GNU iconv, "" as a character encoding is an alias for "char". In fact on many systems it seems "char" is the local 8-bit encoding while "" means nothing.
But glibc iconv works for "", but fails on "char". This is unfortunate. I haven't tried out "wchar", but I believe it is supposed to be the "local" 16-bit encoding. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux debian 2.4.19-ck10 #1 Thu Oct 24 05:34:48 EST 2002 i686 Locale: LANG=en_US.ISO-8859-1, LC_CTYPE=en_US.ISO-8859-1 (ignored: LC_ALL set) Versions of packages libc6 depends on: ii libdb1-compat 2.1.3-7 The Berkeley database routines [gl -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
