Homepage: https://github.com/win-iconv/win-iconv
Description-en: iconv implementation using Windows API (for cross-building)
Windows systems have native character set conversion
routines. win-iconv wraps those routines in a standard-looking iconv
interface. This package provides a means to cross-build tools for
Windows that depend on libiconv.
.
On native Debian systems, iconv is provided directly by glibc; you
should not need this package unless you are cross-building Windows
tools.
