It is unusual that $(LIBICONV) comes out empty while $(LTLIBICONV) comes out as '-liconv'. Usually these two variables should only differ in -L, -R, -Wl,-rpath options. You'll need to inspect the execution of the configure script more closely: Look at config.log, run configure with "bash -x", and similar. One possibility is that LIBICONV was set to empty in the environment or the configure command line. Bruno
