[Samba] iconv not working on Sparc Solaris 8

[Graeme Hindmarsh]

Hi,

 

I am trying to compile Samba 3.0.13 but when I run configure I get the
following in the output.

 

checking for iconv in /usr/lib... yes

checking can we convert from CP850 to UCS2-LE?... no

checking can we convert from IBM850 to UCS2-LE?... no

checking can we convert from ASCII to UCS2-LE?... no

checking can we convert from 646 to UCS2-LE?... 646

checking can we convert from UTF-8 to UCS2-LE?... UTF-8

configure: WARNING: Sufficient support for iconv function was not found.

    Install libiconv from http://freshmeat.net/projects/libiconv/ for better
cha

rset compatibility!

 

I have compiled from source and installed libiconv-1.9.2 in /usr/local but
it just does not seem to work.

Without iconv Samba will just fill up its log files with character
conversion errors and generally not work.

 

I have tried libiconv-1.9.1, libiconv-1.8 and Samba 3.0.11.

GNU gcc 2.95.3 and gcc 3.4.2

 

Can anybody help?

 

Thanks

Graeme
