software only have latin-1

Definetly not for two very good reasons; no amiga hardware and no such thing as latin-1.

please dont fix msged then, if anything should be changed you should in vim make valid w3.org text (HTML) :)

if people understand why its not happend we could all use latin-1

Nope. We have no use for things that do not exist, such as latin-1. Personally I vote for 7-bit ascii characters and to hell with stinkin' human languages.

in fidoterms latin-1 does exists, in iconv it does not

i dont have references to why amiga did it, more or less maybe filesystem was build with latin-1 in mind

A bunch of heathen bastards if you ask me. :-)

feel free to not get an amiga emulator on linux

Life is good,
Maurice

don't blame me then

Out of interest I have a Raspberry pi3B+ and a Pi4 8Gb.
I have bullseye 32 bit on the 3 and had Bullseye 64 bit on the 4.

I just built golded-plus on lfs (very minimal) without issues.

Installed Ubuntu 22.04.1 on the 4 and rebuilt Golded, again with warning msgs but again it will not run just comes back immediately.

Is it finding your golded.cfg? I "export GOLDED=/usr/local/etc" where my golded.cfg is and it works well for me.

If I forget that export that's what happens, golded just doesn't run, it returns you to the command prompt.
