Bugzilla Bug 225747

The evolution-data-server fails because of error: You need to install a working
iconv implementation, such as ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/libiconv

Why does it even look for this as everything seems to indicate it should not be
required?

This is not a duplicate as it is not related to pilot-link

evolution-1.12 is way too outdated by now. Fill free to open a new bug report
if you can reproduce with eds 2.24 or 2.26 (soon to be added).
