[kde-freebsd] Qt 4.5 and GNU iconv

[David Naylor]

Hi,

I've been trying to get Qt4.5 to behave properly with libiconv and it just 
doesn't.  My best understanding is that, under linux, glibc provides all the 
iconv functionality and that, somehow, libiconv and glibc differ in their 
implementation and thus it breaks Qt (or Qt handles them differently).  

I cannot find anyone who has tried to compile Qt without glibc under linux (or 
if Gentoo has managed to get Qt working under their version of FreeBSD).  

I don't know if, or by how much, libiconv and glibc differ, perhaps 
converters/iconv would work better than libiconv in replacing glibc?  

Does anyone know why Qt is failing to behave with libiconv?

Regards,

David

P.S. I updated libiconv to 1.13 (after compiling Qt) and still same issue
