Compiling R-2.9.1 from the source
I just tried R-patched and the same problem happens. libiconv is available too: bcarvalh$ ls -l /usr/lib/libiconv* lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 16 Feb 21 2008 /usr/lib/libiconv. 2.4.0.dylib -> libiconv.2.dylib -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 4147008 Nov 24 2007 /usr/lib/libiconv. 2.dylib lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 20 Feb 21 2008 /usr/lib/ libiconv.dylib -> libiconv.2.4.0.dylib -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 795 Feb 19 2008 /usr/lib/libiconv.la On R-2.8.1, which I compiled from the source a while back, here's what I get: bcarvalh$ otool -L ~/bin/R-2.8.1/lib/libR.dylib | grep iconv /usr/lib/libiconv.2.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0, current version 7.0.0) And I also have Xcode 3.1.2. Thank you very much for your attention and time, b

Why not try to compile R-patched, aka 2.9.2 RC? It works for me on Mac OS X, but then 2.9.1 did too? On Wed, 19 Aug 2009, Benilton Carvalho wrote:
Hi, I was hoping to be to able to compile R-2.9.1 from the source as I've always done. './configure' always worked nice, but now it fails to find 'iconv', which is installed:
But is libiconv? It is the C function that it is not finding, not the
executable. (It might be part of Xcode: both my Macs have Xcode 3.1.2
on, so I can't tell.) E.g.
tystie% otool -L ~/R/R-patched/lib/i386/libR.dylib | grep iconv
/usr/lib/libiconv.2.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0,
current version 7.0.0)
bcarvalh$ which iconv /usr/bin/iconv bcarvalh$ iconv --version iconv (GNU libiconv 1.11) Copyright (C) 2000-2006 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Here's what I get with ./configure checking iconv.h usability... yes checking iconv.h presence... yes checking for iconv.h... yes checking for iconv... no checking for iconvlist... no configure: error: --with-iconv=yes (default) and a suitable iconv is not available I'm running Mac OS X 10.5.8... any ideas on what I may be missing? Or suggestions on what to report in order to try to find the source of the problem? Thank you very much, benilton
