Comment:
Well, meanwhile iconv was buried rather deep in one of my stacks of
notes...
The latest patch looks quite fine, so my reviewer patch will be fairly
small. :)
Can you confirm that ''reinstalling'' iconv still works, since you also
dropped ''the code'' that removed the traces of previous iconv
installations?
(I only meant ''the remarks in {{{SPKG.txt}}}'' were confusing, especially
the second - perhaps unrelated - paragraph; see my
[http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/9603#comment:21 comment above].
I suggested replacing this by ''"When updating the package, one should
make sure all traces of previous installations of iconv still get removed
prior to [re]installation."'', unless this has become obsolete now, which
I don't know.)
Also, can you check if using {{{$MAKE}}} instead of {{{make}}} in both
{{{spkg-install}}} and {{{spkg-check}}} (especially when doing a parallel
build, i.e. with multiple {{{make}}} jobs) would work?
(You haven't [yet] changed that, but we should ''always'' use {{{$MAKE}}}
instead of {{{make}}}, since the user might have set it to something else,
not limited to e.g. {{{"make -j"}}}. As noted above, in case parallel
build/check doesn't work, we should use {{{$MAKE -j1 ...}}}.)
