Bug Description
Binary package hint: convmv
Hello!
I have a filesystem with filenames encoded in iso8859-1. I try to convert these names to utf-8 with convmv.
"convmv -f iso8859-1 -t UTF8 ." wrongly reports all files as being already encoded in UTF-8
"convmv -f iso8859-1 -t UTF-8 ." does the conversion as requested (when used with --notest of course). But the few files already in utf8 are not detected but are double encoded.
