Bug Description

Binary package hint: libc6

Some charsets aren't available in the Ubuntu version of libiconv. For instance, most of the mac encodings that are included when I compile the source are unavailable on the Ubuntu version.

Actually there seems to be more encodings in the Ubuntu version but we still miss the mac encodings.
