I have tried to compile the ysm (ysmv7_2_9_0) ICQ client. The configure script can’t find iconv in -liconv, even though I have installed libiconv 1.7 from the online repository. libiconv.so and libiconv.2.so are both in /opt/lib and /usr/lib, which are both in my path. Setting have_iconv to yes in configure.in and running autoconf makes make end with an error message. What can I do about this?
Just in case you didnt know, i have built YSM for QNX. Grab it here. windoze.doesntexist.com/qnx/
Its gunzipped, so, gunzip -d ysm.gz then chmod a+x ysm. It can be run from anywhere, but i recommend copying it to /usr/local/bin
Yeah i did… tried everything under the sun too. It has to be something in the configure script thats wacked, because every other app ive built finds iconv w/out problems.
But since youre looking for an ICQ client that supports international chars, why not try mICQ? Also at same url.
