hi,

do you mean that?

sorry cant see the anjuta linking problem here...

On systems other than GNU/Linux, the iconv program will be 
internationalized only if GNU gettext has been built and installed 
before GNU libiconv. This means that the first time GNU libiconv is 
installed, we have a circular dependency between the GNU libiconv and 
GNU gettext packages, which can be resolved by building and installing 
either

    * first libiconv, then gettext, then libiconv again,

or (on systems supporting shared libraries, excluding AIX)

    * first gettext, then libiconv, then gettext again.

Recall that before building a package for the second time, you need to 
erase the traces of the first build by running "make distclean". 
XXXXXXXXXX worth a try XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

This library can be built and installed in two variants:

    * The library mode. This works on all systems, and uses a library 
libiconv.so and a header file <iconv.h>. (Both are installed through 
"make install".)

      To use it, simply #include <iconv.h> and use the functions.

      To use it in an autoconfiguring package:
          o If you don't use automake, append m4/iconv.m4 to your 
aclocal.m4 file.
          o If you do use automake, add m4/iconv.m4 to your m4 macro 
repository.
          o Add to the link command line of libraries and executables 
that use the functions the placeholder @LIBICONV@ (or, if using libtool 
for the link, @LTLIBICONV@). If you use automake, the right place for 
these additions are the *_LDADD variables.
      Note that iconv.m4 is also part of the GNU gettext package, which 
installs it in /usr/local/share/aclocal/iconv.m4.

    * The libc plug/override mode. This works on GNU/Linux, Solaris and 
OSF/1 systems only. It is a way to get good iconv support without having 
glibc-2.1. It installs a library libiconv_plug.so. This library can be 
used with LD_PRELOAD, to override the iconv* functions present in the C 
library.
          o On GNU/Linux and Solaris:

$ export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/libiconv_plug.so

          o On OSF/1:

$ export _RLD_LIST=/usr/local/lib/libiconv_plug.so:DEFAULT

      A program's source need not be modified, the program need not 
even be recompiled. Just set the LD_PRELOAD environment variable, that's it!
