Gucharmap is a Unicode character map and font viewer. It allows you to browse through all the available Unicode characters and categories for the installed fonts, and to examine their detailed properties. It is an easy way to find the character you might only know by its Unicode name or code point.
This package is known to build and work properly using an LFS-8.3 platform.

User Notes: http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/gucharmap
Install Gucharmap by running the following commands:
LIBS="-ldl" \
./configure --prefix=/usr \
--enable-vala \
--with-unicode-data=download &&
make
This package's testsuite is only intended to be used by the maintainer to check the i18n help files.
Now, as the root user:
make install
LIBS="-ldl" ...: Allows linking some system libraries. This is currently broken in version 10.0.4.
--with-unicode-data=download: This
switch forces the build process to download the Unicode data instead of trying to look for it
locally.
--enable-vala: This switch
enables building of the Vala
bindings (auto-detection of vapigen is currently broken).
Remove if you don't have Vala-0.40.8
installed.
--enable-gtk-doc: Use this parameter if
GTK-Doc is installed and you wish
to rebuild and install the API documentation.
