Bug#315481: iconv: had to convert indirectly
Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.2.ds1-22
Severity: minor
File: /usr/bin/iconv
Odd, I had to do this indirectly in iconv 2.3.2:
$ echo =E6=9C=80=E6=96=B0=E5=8A=A8=E6=80=81|qp-decode|\
iconv -f utf8 -t gb2312|iconv -f gb2312 -t big5
However, there are still characters that emacs and firefox know about
that iconv can't deal with in http://www.planning.org/china/
e.g.,
$ echo =E2=80=94|qp-decode|iconv -f utf8 -t gb2312
iconv: illegal input sequence at position 0
P.S.,
$ iconv --help
