Hi all, I was thinking about all the iconv stuff, the detection and all and I was wondering... Do we really need to check if iconv is installed and use all those conditional macros? Wouldn't it be simpler to just require libiconv on the target system (which should be present anyway)? Consider that glibc has libiconv embedded, so all Linux flavours should have it by default. Other operating systems have libraries which provide the same functionality and I could bet that most of the modern systems have libiconv installed by default. Isn't it a bit too much hassle to make all this conditional behaviour just to support... what really? I'm pretty sure it's really hard to find a system without libiconv, especially one that needs an IM client. What do you think? Can we simplify our lives by requiring that the users have libiconv installed on their systems?
