[Bug 2002856] Re: iconv does not support MACGREEK encoding

[Simon Chopin]

Hi,

Thanks for reaching out.

While glibc does provide a libiconv-compatible interface, it's not the same project and does not provide support for that encoding
We're not in capacity to introduce this kind of changes directly in Ubuntu. Could you instead file a bug upstream?

Title:
  iconv does not support MACGREEK encoding

Status in glibc package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  According to https://www.gnu.org/software/libiconv, the GNU iconv
  implementation should support the MACGREEK encoding. Performing iconv
  -l | grep GREEK on different systems with Ubuntu 22.10 and Ubuntu
  20.04 only brought me lists of other greek encodings.

  Convertings something from MACGREEK to UNICODE doesn't work.
