Having failed to configure AxKit because it claimed iconv was missing, I grabbed GNU libiconv and installed that, so I now have /usr/local/include/iconv.h and /usr/local/lib/libiconv.so in place.
AxKit *still* claims I don't have iconv installed. Is there a way around this?
Is it possible that /usr/local/* aren't in your include and lib paths?
I did some googling and found an index to the mail archives, but
the only mention of iconv refers to Text::Iconv which looks like
it's a Perl library, and it doesn't appear to be anything to do with
AxKit failing to see GNU iconv and libiconv.
Text::Iconv and AxKit bind to iconv the same way so it's the same thing.
The error seems to be in Apache/AxKit/Makefile.PL, where it says
if (have_library("iconv", "iconv") || have_library("iconv", "libiconv"))
{
and have_library is define in the top-level Makefile.PL, but my
Perl isn't up to working out where it's looking...obviously not
in /usr/lib, /usr/local/lib, /usr/include, or /usr/local/include.
One option is to comment out that check and see if it works. Some systems have very stupid bugs that prevent it from working.
Has anyone managed to get AxKit installed on a Red Hat system?
Yes, many people :)
