Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/10.X/PHCO_18030

Symptoms:
	PHCO_18030:

	Four Japanese characters are being incorrectly mapped
	to different Unicode characters than expected.

	These mappings are not comformant to the Japanese
	national standard JIS-0221.

	Data loss may occur when sending this converted data to
	Unicode-aware systems (eg. NT).

Defect Description:
	PHCO_18030:

	Japanese iconv converter tables contain several incorrect
	entries when converting between SJIS/eucJP and UCS-2/UTF-8.
	Specifically, the following characters have incorrect
	mappings:  Overline, EM Dash, Yen Sign, and (eucJP only)
	Fullwidth Tilde.

	Resolution:

	The table mappings have been aligned with those specified in
	the JIS-0221 Extended mapping.

	                 (incorrect)
	SJIS     eucJP   current UCS-2  correct UCS-2  character
	----------------------------------------------------------
	0x8150   0xA1B1    0xFFe3         0x203E       Overline
	0x818F   0xA1EF    0xFFe5         0x00A5       Yen Sign
	0x815C   0xA1BD    0x2015         0x2014       Em Dash
	n/a      0x8FA2B7  0x02DC         0xFF5E   Fullwidth Tilde

	This affects the following iconv tables:

	eucJP=ucs2       ucs2=eucJP
	sjis=ucs2        ucs2=sjis

	Fixing these tables also fixed the incorrect UTF-8
	conversion mappings.

Installation Instructions:

	------------------------------------------------------------
	1. Back up your system before installing a patch.

	2. Login as root.

	3. Copy the patch to the /tmp directory.

	4. Move to the /tmp directory and unshar the patch:

		cd /tmp
		sh PHCO_18030

	5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the
	    patch:

		swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \
			-s /tmp/PHCO_18030.depot

	5b. For a homogeneous NFS Diskless cluster run swcluster on the
	    server to install the patch on the server and the clients:

		swcluster -i -b

	    This will invoke swcluster in the interactive mode and
	    force all clients to be shut down.

	    WARNING: All cluster clients must be shut down prior to the
		     patch installation.  Installing the patch while the
		     clients are booted is unsupported and can lead to
		     serious problems.

	    The swcluster command will invoke an swinstall session in which
	    you must specify:

		alternate root path  -  default is /export/shared_root/OS_700
		source depot path    -  /tmp/PHCO_18030.depot

	    To complete the installation, select the patch by choosing
	    "Actions -> Match What Target Has" and then "Actions -> Install"
	    from the Menubar.

	5c. For a heterogeneous NFS Diskless cluster:

		- run swinstall on the server as in step 5a to install
		  the patch on the cluster server.

		- run swcluster on the server as in step 5b to install
		  the patch on the cluster clients.

	By default swinstall will archive the original software in
	/var/adm/sw/patch/PHCO_18030.  If you do not wish to retain a
	copy of the original software, you can create an empty file
	named /var/adm/sw/patch/PATCH_NOSAVE.

	Warning: If this file exists when a patch is installed, the
	         patch cannot be deinstalled.  Please be careful
		 when using this feature.

	It is recommended that you move the PHCO_18030.text file to
	/var/adm/sw/patch for future reference.

	To put this patch on a magnetic tape and install from the
	tape drive, use the command:

		dd if=/tmp/PHCO_18030.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k
