Description Ross Burton 2005-09-28 16:35:23 UTC
The current test for UTF-8 support in iconv converts from a Japanese charset to
UTF-8.  Whilst this is just as correct any other combination, it has a tendency
to fail on systems with reduced resources where the Japanese locales have been
removed.  The Nokia 770 is one of these: there are no Eastern languages on the
prototype devices to save space.

Attaching a patch to which converts from ISO 8859-15 instead. This will still
verify that UTF-8 is supported but far more systems will have the 8859-15 codecs
available.
