Has this been incorporated into GPSBabel 1.4.2?

[Comment 5 progserega 2010-11-20 08:38:38 UTC]

No, i test 1.4.2 version. Option 'encoding' not supported in code. Without it - waypoints in garmin with russian locales gets by gpsbabel with '$$$$$$' name.

[Comment 6 Tomáš Chvátal (RETIRED) 2011-06-10 09:32:56 UTC]

The patch is not applying cleanly for the 1.4.2.

Please make upstream accept the patch as we do not patch new features that were not accepted by upstream into gentoo-shipped packages.
