[Gtk-osx-users] libiconv woes

[David Lowe <doctorjlowe verizon net>]

Thanks for such a great project!

	I just got started on this a few days ago and am really impressed so far, particularly the way that jhbuild keeps the Terminal title updated as it works.

	I've run into a problem during the 'jhbuild build meta-gtk-osx-bootstrap' step.  During configure of glib i see this:

> checking for iconv_open... no
> checking for libiconv_open in -liconv... no
> checking for iconv_open in -liconv... yes

	and build ends this way:

> gconvert.c:55:2: error: #error GNU libiconv not in use but included iconv.h is from libiconv
> make[4]: *** [gconvert.lo] Error 1
> make[3]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
> make[2]: *** [all] Error 2
> make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
> make: *** [all] Error 2
> *** Error during phase build of glib: ########## Error running make   *** [2/10]

	My system is like this:

OS 10.6.3
XCode 3.2.2 [with 10.4u and 10.5 SDKs]
/usr/lib/libiconv2.dylib [linked to libiconv.dylib and libiconv2.4.0.dylib]
/usr/include/iconv.h

	Are the last two items supposed to be there, or are they something that got built along the way and didn't get removed?
