You don't need to: lakeview ok % nm -D /lib/libc.so.6 | grep iconv 000000000001f3c0 T iconv 000000000001f570 T iconv_close 000000000001f1a0 T iconv_open iconv is built into glibc, so Debian systems come with it out of the box. The GNU libiconv is only useful for those systems that don't come with one or come with one that is very limited. There's really no reason that a Debian system should ever need a separate libiconv. -- brian m. carlson / brian with sandals: Houston, Texas, US +1 832 623 2791 | http://www.crustytoothpaste.net/~bmc | My opinion only OpenPGP: RSA v4 4096b: 88AC E9B2 9196 305B A994 7552 F1BA 225C 0223 B187
