Thanks for caring! And thank you very much for your work.

For now, I have "reviewed" (read the text of the commit message, and had
a look at the changes in the code) these commits:

dl10n-check: cache the Text::Iconv objects
a0106c8b

dl10n-check: move simple ASCII fallback to subroutine
13c97654

dl10n-check: make Text::Iconv mandatory
41adc507

dl10n-check: save DB at end only if needed
0ecf23fd

dl10n-check: add optional value for --careful
d1fb3695

dl10n-check: simplify org type collection
fe4563de

And all of them look good for me, but my Perl skills are very very few,
and I had not time to actually test... so more reviews welcome.

About the new dependency (libtext-iconv-perl) I have checked that it is
already installed in tye.debian.org. If looking at the remaining commits
I find that we need some other dependency and it is not installed, I
will send an RT ticket to DSA asking for it.

I will go on reviewing the commits and will test the "new" dl10n-check
launching manually the process in tye (when there are no other processes
running) and comparing the current and new databases (and running the
other jobs over the new database, to see if everything works ok).

Yes! I hope to put time on this during the week for tests, and I will
report to the bug the results.

Cheers
