Greetings,

I'm new to this list, and couldn't get at the archives online, so
apologies if this has been answered before.  I'm desparate, you see.

I've been working to install a few packages that are required for a sound
editor i need to use.  Using fink from the command line, I decided that I
should run self-update before downloading the packages i needed.  It all
started out fine, but upon trying to install libiconv-1.9.1-11 (a
dependancy i guess, since I didn't ask for it) fink fails with the
following message:

..............Tons more above here..................
mkdir .libs
chmod 777 .libs
 gcc -I. -I. -I../include -I./../include -I/sw/include -g -O2
-DLIBDIR=\"/sw/lib\" -DENABLE_RELOCATABLE=1 -DIN_LIBRARY
-DINSTALLDIR=\"/sw/lib\" -DNO_XMALLOC
-Dset_relocation_prefix=libiconv_set_relocation_prefix
-Drelocate=libiconv_relocate -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -c ./iconv.c  -fno-common
-DPIC -o .libs/iconv.o
./loop_wchar.h:28: header file 'wchar.h' not found
cpp-precomp: warning: errors during smart preprocessing, retrying in basic
mode
make[1]: *** [iconv.lo] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2
### execution of make failed, exit code 2
Failed: compiling libiconv-1.9.1-11 failed

I can't figure out what this 'wchar.h' is and why it can't be found.
Unfortunately, now that I've run into this problem, installing any fink
package runs me into the same trouble.  I always seem to find libiconv
listed in the group of packages that will 'need to be installed' and the
installation always craps out in the same place in the same way.

Any suggestions on how I can get out of this bind?  I'd love not to have
to totally nuke my /sw directory and start over from scratch, but that's
next on my list. . .

Thanks for any help you all can offer,

Cris
