Ah, I see I managed to circle back to where you were in comment #6 and had
lost track of where this ticket had been.

I went to [https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/uchardet/uchardet uchardet's
upstream repository] and cannot find _any_ documentation of the library API;
[https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/uchardet/uchardet/-/blob/master/test/uchardet-tests.c?ref_type=heads
the closest thing to an example of its use that I could locate is not useful
because it expects the "uchardet.h" header to be within the same source
tree].

For practical purposes, this library is undocumented.  I feel that to be a
significant defect.
