+Subject: [PATCH] Unset need_charset_alias when building for musl
+
+localcharset uses ac_cv_gnu_library_2_1 from glibc21.m4
+which actually shoudl be fixed in gnulib and then all downstream
+projects will get it eventually. For now we apply the fix to
+coreutils

+Subject: [PATCH] remove the test to convert euc-jp
+
+Remove the test "Test against HP-UX 11.11 bug:
+No converter from EUC-JP to UTF-8 is provided"
+since we don't support HP-UX and if the euc-jp is not
+installed on the host, libunistring will be built without
+iconv support and will cause guild-native configure fail.
+
+Upstream-Status: Inappropriate [OE specific]

+SUMMARY = "Library for manipulating C and Unicode strings"
+
+DESCRIPTION = "Text files are nowadays usually encoded in Unicode, and may\
+ consist of very different scripts from Latin letters to Chinese Hanzi\
+ with many kinds of special characters accents, right-to-left writing\
+ marks, hyphens, Roman numbers, and much more. But the POSIX platform\
+ APIs for text do not contain adequate functions for dealing with\
+ particular properties of many Unicode characters. In fact, the POSIX\
+ APIs for text have several assumptions at their base which don't hold\
+ for Unicode text.  This library provides functions for manipulating\
+ Unicode strings and for manipulating C strings according to the Unicode\
+ standard.  This package contains documentation."
