Description Péter, Soós 2004-03-26 13:53:08 UTC
Description of problem:
man smb.conf command shows only the first part of the bage with the
following error message:
iconv: illegal input sequence at position 4080

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
samba-3.0.2-7.FC1

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.man smb.conf

  
Actual results:
only the first part aapears

Expected results:
whole page appears

Additional info:
$ locale
LANG=en_US
LC_CTYPE="en_US"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US"
LC_TIME="en_US"
LC_COLLATE="en_US"
LC_MONETARY="en_US"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US"
LC_PAPER="en_US"
LC_NAME="en_US"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US"

LC_ALL=en_US

It works well if locale is set to en_US.UTF8

I tried it with hu_HU and hu_HU.UTF-8 locales, with same result.
