HP Roman 8 is also known as 'hp-roman8', 'cp1051' and 'ibm1051'. They are missing from the aliases.py.
serhiy-storchaka commentedon Aug 28, 2018
Please provide references for the definition of 'cp1051' and 'ibm1051'.

The hp-roman8 codec was added in bpo-996067. The link to the original data (ftp://dkuug.dk/i18n/charmaps/HP-ROMAN8) is dead now.
