[Comment 3 foser (RETIRED) 2003-01-14 16:42:58 UTC]

can you unpack the pan tarball in a local dir and try compiling iconv-test.c in
it's root ? Return me the ouput and check if it exists normally.

albert pan-0.13.3 # ./iconv-detect 
System prefers iso-8859-1
System doesn't support any ISO-2022 formats
System prefers iso-10646
