<p>now delivers a reasonable result.</p>
<p>Another question. Jim Klimov initially created this package. He
also prepared a README stating:</p>
<p><i>It is expected that ultimate deployments might not want to run
all of</i><i><br>
</i><i>the components in the same operating environment. In
particular, the</i><i><br>
</i><i>maintenance of a local copy of the virus definitions
database adds a</i><i><br>
</i><i>considerable storage and internet-traffic overhead which
would be not</i><i><br>
</i><i>needed on systems that do not run `clamd` or other
implementations of</i><i><br>
</i><i>the scanning engine directly.</i><i><br>
</i></p>
<p>So, he created several packages to allow distinct installations.
Currently I've created only one package, but for update reasons
should I stick to the original packages (I think storage shouldn't
be a problem nowadays, despite I'm an educated engineer trying to
be as efficient to environment as possible, basically it is a
consideration of minimum space requirements and kind of
convenience, also without updating databases a virus scanner on a
regular basis is kind of useless, right)?</p>
<p>kind regards,</p>
<p> Fritz<br>

I just ran into this a couple weeks ago with a different test
suite.
<br>
Based on how I read iconv_unicode(5) (and iconv(5), for non
unicode),
<br>
OI's iconv has a limited set of supported conversions.
<br>
<br>
The tables in iconv_unicode(5) list "SJIS", though, which is the
alias
<br>
OI uses, so in theory it should be possible to go from UTF-8 to
SJIS.
<br>
<br>
That it's not showing up in the output from iconv -l has me
wondering if
<br>
it's the case of a missing package. My guess is there should be a
module
<br>
somewhere in /usr/lib/iconv/ that has "SJIS" (or perhaps some
variant of
<br>
Kanji, since that's listed as the name, and SJIS is apparently the
alias?)
<br>
somewhere in its name.
<br>
<br>
Note the 'eucJP' does show up in the iconv output, and that is an
<br>
alternate (incompatible) pre-Unicode encoding.
<br>
<br>
This page has a lot of good info on the various encodings for
Japan:
