As far as we know there is no programmatic way of getting a list of the available encodings at runtime, (the equivalent of the `iconv --list` command).  If you find one let us know.

Yes the nightlys are provided by one of the developers, but they are for checking the build on a number of configurations, the packages produced are intended only as an artifact, although they may work if your system matches the build one.  But the scripts are not published AFAIK and probably the build scripts are very specific to the particular setup and would not be useful even if they were published.

Packages for Debian are not built by the packagers any more IIUC, the packagers submit jobs to a Debian build farm that makes packages for all the platforms and systems Debian supports, so only authorised people can make packages for Debian.  Ubuntu is the same IIUC.  Other distros may vary :)  Packagers are of course individual contributors and their ability to immediately respond to a new Geany release may vary from time to time.
