Follow-up Comment #6, bug #58165 (project groff):


  I looked at the issue again.

1) unset the LESSCHARSET environmental variable in the test script.

  Result: correct operation.

2) looked at the first case test with "locale charmap" in "nroff".

  Issued "LC_ALL=C locale charmap".

  Result: ANSI_X3.4-1968

  This shows that the real culprit is a missing case candidate in the
first case test, not the LESSCHARSET, nor the result of the "locale" I
use in the environment.

  "groff" supports four output devices, so one is missing in the first
case test.

  A case of wrong conclusions, suggestions is seen in the bug
report #58098.
