Package: minicom
Version: 2.3~rc1-2
Severity: normal

Once I connect to a remote host which uses latin1 messages via serial console
from a system defaulting to UTF-8 I get:

�Y�minicom: ../iconv/loop.c:425: internal_utf8_loop_single: Zusicherung »inptr - bytebuf > (state->__count & 7)« nicht erfüllt.
                                               Abgebrochen (core dumped)

(the German text means "Condition ... not fulfilled - Aborting")

Since I do in general not know the encoding of the remote host it should
be more tolerable.
