Comment:
The iconv spkg installs a binary called "iconv" to `SAGE_LOCAL/bin`, a
directory which is under revision control. Usually, we don't put
executable binaries under revision control. After installing the iconv
spkg, I get this:
{{{
[mv...@sage bin]$ hg st
? iconv
}}}
The file `.hgignore` needs to be configured to ignore this file. I have
attached
[http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/attachment/ticket/8191/trac_8191-reviewer.patch
trac_8191-reviewer.patch] which does this. Apply that patch to the script
repository. It depends on the patch at #8307. Only my patch needs review
by anyone but me.
