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? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge openoffice 2. 3. Actual Results: checking for GNOME_PLATFORM... yes checking for regexec... yes checking Berkeley DB... yes checking for iconv in -liconv... no checking for iconv... yes checking for gnu_get_libc_version... yes checking if iconv() handles UTF-8... no configure: error: You need to install a working iconv implementation, such as ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/libiconv !!!
