Package: libc-bin
Version: 2.40-3
Severity: normal
Previously this worked successfully without error exit.
rwp@bookworm:~$ echo dæmon | env -i LC_ALL=UTF-8 PATH=$PATH HOME=$HOME
USER=$USER TERM=$TERM iconv -f UTF-8 -t ASCII//TRANSLIT ; echo $?
daemon
0
But now it still "works" and completes the conversion but it exits
non-zero.
rwp@sid:~$ echo dæmon | env -i LC_ALL=UTF-8 PATH=$PATH HOME=$HOME
USER=$USER TERM=$TERM iconv -f UTF-8 -t ASCII//TRANSLIT ; echo $?
daemon
rwp@sid:~$ echo $?
1
This causes a secondary failure on man. See for example Bug#1087663
which now causes a problem with man due to this non-zero exit.
Thank you for maintaining iconv in Debian!
