Bug Description
In ubuntu 11.10 iconv (package libc-bin 2.13-20ubuntu5.1) is broken. If you run a command (with encoding koi8-r)
echo проба|LC_ALL= LC_CTYPE=
then you get output
?????
while when encoding is utf-8 then command
echo проба|LC_ALL= LC_CTYPE=
generates output
proba
iconv in 12.04 (libc-bin 2.15-0ubuntu6) has no such bug, both encodings generate 'proba'. Hope you'll backport the fix. Thank you.
