Hi, I'm trying to compile a C++ software on FreeBSD. While compiling, this error shows up: error: stray '\357' in program error: stray '\273' in program error: stray '\277' in program This file is reported (by file[1]) to be "UTF-8 Unicode (with BOM) C program text, with CRLF line terminators" while the rest of the files in the package are "ASCII C program text, with CRLF line terminators". While I can convert the file with iconv -c -f utf-8 -t ascii file > new_file in the post extract stage, I wonder if there is a more suitable way for achieving the same thing. Also I would like to avoid this software from depending on iconv. Thanks in advance.
