Description Joseph M. Hinkle 2004-10-13 01:27:29 UTC 
emerge gnome-libs (needed by "grass" GIS application) fails:

./.libs/libgnome.so: undefined reference to `libiconv_open'
./.libs/libgnome.so: undefined reference to `libiconv'

libiconv is part of glibc.  Separately emerging libiconv is discouraged and at this point is masked.



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge gnome-libs
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
./.libs/libgnome.so: undefined reference to `libiconv_open'
./.libs/libgnome.so: undefined reference to `libiconv'

and

!!! ERROR: gnome-base/gnome-libs-1.4.2 failed.
!!! Function src_compile, Line 69, Exitcode 2
!!! (no error message)


USE="-nls -apm -gpm -spell doc java tcltk postgres mmx sse -kde -arts -alsa -oss"


Expected Results:  
It should have successfully emerged gnome-libs
Comment 1 foser (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-10-13 16:41:18 UTC 
why is every freaking bug coming without 'emerge info' while it is in the bugreport form ?

& post some more output, please, please be verbose... we are not sensing problems here.

Spurious /usr/local/include/iconv.h discovered without a /usr/local/lib/libiconv.so
