Package: x11-utils Version: 7.7+3 Severity: normal Tags: upstream I find myself in the situation of wishing to change the charset for a remote session, i.e. ssh to a cp1252 system from an UTF-8 system. I thought to use luit for this, but:
tglase@tglase-nb:~ $ luit -encoding 'CP 1252' echo mäh Warning: couldn't find charset data for locale CP 1252; using ISO 8859-1. mäh tglase@tglase-nb:~ $ luit -encoding microsoft-cp1252 echo mäh Warning: couldn't find charset data for locale microsoft-cp1252; using ISO 8859-1. mäh tglase@tglase-nb:~ $ luit -list | fgrep 1252 CP 1252 This is not specific to Debian (Cc’ing the original author from the manpage), as I can reproduce it also on MirBSD with XFree86®. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.4.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/lksh Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages x11-utils depends on: ii libc6 2.21-9 ii libfontconfig1 2.11.0-6.3 ii libfontenc1 1:1.1.3-1 ii libfreetype6 2.6.1-0.1 ii libgl1-mesa-glx [libgl1] 11.1.2-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.3-1 ii libx11-xcb1 2:1.6.3-1 ii libxaw7 2:1.0.13-1 ii libxcb-shape0 1.11.1-1 ii libxcb1 1.11.1-1 ii libxcomposite1 1:0.4.4-1 ii libxext6 2:1.3.3-1 ii libxft2 2.3.2-1 ii libxi6 2:1.7.6-1 ii libxinerama1 2:1.1.3-1+b1 ii libxmu6 2:1.1.2-2 ii libxmuu1 2:1.1.2-2 ii libxrandr2 2:1.5.0-1 ii libxrender1 1:0.9.9-2 ii libxt6 1:1.1.5-1 ii libxtst6 2:1.2.2-1+b1 ii libxv1 2:1.0.10-1+b1 ii libxxf86dga1 2:1.1.4-1+b1 ii libxxf86vm1 1:1.1.4-1 x11-utils recommends no packages.
