Hello, I'm using OpenBSD 4.9 and I'm having troubles when rsync'ing data to a GNU/Linux box. As I have Umlauts in the file names I tried to use rsync's iconv feature to convert between different charsets. But rsync from the OpenBSD packages doesn't support iconv at all:
$> rsync --version rsync version 3.0.7 protocol version 30 Copyright (C) 1996-2009 by Andrew Tridgell, Wayne Davison, and others. Web site: rsync.samba.org Capabilities: 64-bit files, 32-bit inums, 32-bit timestamps, 64-bit long ints, socketpairs, hardlinks, symlinks, IPv6, batchfiles, inplace, append, no ACLs, no xattrs, *no iconv*, no symtimes Are there any ways to get rsync with iconv support without building it from source? And why was iconv support dropped from the rsync binary? Thanks, Gerald
