The result of `uchardet_get_charset' gives nothing, which is not normal. The `uchardet' lib is an optional dependency used by preconv to detect the encoding of the input file. I've added it several months ago because `mom' example files could fail badly (preconv would default to latin1). On HEAD I don't have any problem to generate mom examples pdf, and preconv -d mom-pdf.mom gives me: default encoding: `UTF-8' file `mom-pdf.mom': no encoding tag len: 21946 uchardet read: 21946 bytes charset: ASCII encoding used: `US-ASCII' Which version of `uchardet' do you have on your system? On mine I have version 0.0.6. Another thing is that if `uchardet_get_charse' returns NULL we use the default encoding, but we could also test that this function returns an empty string (which should be your case).
