Steps to reproduce:

Trying to compile and use jp-kanji. 
Following directions found here: 
B2G/gaia/apps/keyboard/js/imes/jskanji/dict/Makefile




Actual results:

Expected a new dict.json file


Expected results:

Crashed
$ make
find ipadic -name "*.dic" -exec cat {} >> dict \;
iconv -f euc-jp -t utf-8 dict > dict.utf8
iconv: illegal input sequence at position 3
make: *** [dict.utf8] Error 1

If I change file
B2G/gaia/apps/keyboard/js/imes/jskanji/dict/Makefile
changing line 
iconv -f euc-jp -t utf-8 dict > dict.utf8
to
iconv -sc -f euc-jp -t utf-8 dict > dict.utf8

This also crashes:
$ make
python conv.py
dict.utf8
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "conv.py", line 27, in <module>
    kana = kata2hira(arr[base+2][:-1])
IndexError: list index out of range
make: *** [json] Error 1

If I use the dictionaries found in ipadic-2.5.0.src.rpm instead of ipadic-2.5.1.src.rpm the the same crash occurs a little later in the script.

these directions do work:
tar zxvf ~/naist-jdic-0.4.3.tar.gz
cd B2G/gaia/apps/keyboard/js/imes/jskanji/dict
mkdir ipadic
cp naist-jdic-0.4.3/naist-jdic.dic ipadic/
make json
