I tested on S10, SNV (probably somewhere around SNV_14, can't quite remember) and S9 (whichever the latest update was). None need -liconv, it's a build error on S10 (which was the one I cared about). I can dig into the Iconv situation further later in the week, or next.

I couldn't find an S8 machine to test on, so I left S8 alone - existing behaviour, I had no basis to judge it incorrect. S8 is /really/ old now btw. ;) > Btw, like Uwe, I also don't have a "gtar" and "ginstall" on this machine. S10, maybe S9 too (not sure), install these to /usr/sfw/bin, if you installed everything. regards, -- Paul Jakma paul@clubi.ie paul@jakma.org Key ID: 64A2FF6A Fortune: Interference from lunar radiation
