Subject: [PATCH] config.mak.uname: use iconv from Homebrew on macOS
Date: Tue, 9 Dec 2025 20:35:34 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <16efc726-34be-44f5-aa92-4e82b663ab3d@web.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <53690064-1c98-40e9-8b9a-7ba6bee63703@web.de>
The library function iconv(3) supplied with macOS versions 15.7.2
(Sequoia) and 26.1 (Tahoe) is unreliable when doing conversions from
ISO-2022-JP to UTF-8 in multiple steps; t3900 reports this breakage:
not ok 17 - ISO-2022-JP should be shown in UTF-8 now
not ok 25 - ISO-2022-JP should be shown in UTF-8 now
not ok 38 - commit --fixup into ISO-2022-JP from UTF-8
As a workaround, use libiconv from Homebrew, if available.
