Bug#220856: ITP: convmv -- converts filenames from one encoding to another



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : convmv
  Version         : 1.05
  Upstream Author : Bjoern Jacke <bjoern [at] j3e.de>

  Description     : converts filenames from one encoding to another

 convmv is meant to help convert a single filename, a directory tree and
 the contained files or a whole filesystem into a different encoding. It
 just converts the filenames, not the content of the files. A special
 feature of convmv is that it also takes care of symlinks, also converts
 the symlink target pointer in case the symlink target is being converted,
 too.
 .
 All this comes in very handy when one wants to switch over from old 8-bit
 locales to UTF-8 locales. It is also possible to convert directories to
 UTF-8 which are already partly UTF-8 encoded.

It's already packaged, I'am looking for a Sponsor :)

The package:

Or via apt:
deb http://www.rdrz.de/~killekulla/debian ./
deb-src http://www.rdrz.de/~killekulla/debian ./
