Package: libc6 Version: 2.24-2 Followup-For: Bug #748215 Something important has changed w.r.t. that matter:
export LANG=C.UTF-8 echo "ça va が" | iconv -f UTF-8 -t 'ascii//translit' in Jessie, it returns expectedly > ca va iconv: illegal input sequence at position 7 in Stretch, it returns > ?a va ? Causing a bug like https://bugs.debian.org/837285 because using C.UTF-8 for LC_CTYPE was the only way i found to get ascii//translit to throw an error when it cannot find a match. Is there now another way to get the same result ?
