Package: lynx-ssl
Version: 1:2.8.4.1b-3.1
Severity: normal

It seems like lynx(1) ignores -assume_charset and treats the contents as
ISO-8859-1.

        $ xxd < foo
        0000000: c80a                                     ..

Which is:

Standard    Hex  Description
-----------------------------------------------
ISO-8859-2  C8   LATIN CAPITAL LETTER C WITH CARON
ISO-8859-1  C8   LATIN CAPITAL LETTER E WITH GRAVE

        $ lynx -dump -assume_charset=ISO-8859-2 \
                -assume_local_charset=US-ASCII foo
        E

Hmm, this should be `C', not `E'.

Or do I miss something?

Jan.
