This is a common type of problem that you run into with dealing with open source packages. VLC is looking in some standard place for libiconv, but not finding it. Typically the ./configure script will have an option such as --with-libiconv=dirname. To find the option you can run “./configure --help”. Finally, if nothing else works, you can download the latest libiconv and install it yourself. I’ve done this, so I know it can be done.

I’m repeating myself, but I don’t think VLC is finding it.

Here are some ways you might:

./configure --help | more

./configure --help >temp.file ; qed temp.file

Finally, if you configure your shell window with a large enough buffer, you can page back in it using CTRL-ALT up-arrow or page-up.
