Bug#212080: libc6: EUC-JP-MS missing
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.2-7
Severity: important
Hi,
'iconv --list' says it supports EUC-JP-MS (and EUCJP-MS,
EUCJP-OPEN, EUCJP-WIN), but it doesn't work.
$ iconv -f CP932 -t EUC-JP-MS test.txt
iconv: conversion to `EUC-JP-MS'
Because EUC-JP-MS support doesn't break Windows specific characters
with converting from Unicode (EUC-JP breaks them), it is really needed
by some Japanese people using Samba, WebDAV, and so on (For more
details, please see
http://www.monyo.com/technical/samba/docs/Japanese-HOWTO-3.0.en.txt).
Mr. Topia has already created unofficial dpatches (pulled from CVS?),
you can get 82_glibc232-euc-jp-ms-fix.dpatch and
82_glibc232-add-cp932-test.dpatch from
http://nickle.ath.cx/~topia/debian/libc6/.
The iconv of this libc6 looks work fine. I succeeded to convert
files written in Windows SJIS (CP932) or UTF-8/16 to EUC-JP-MS, vice versa.
