When I try to build scrollkeeper, I get stopped at: /usr/libexec/elf/ld: cannot find -lgiconv and then an array of errors reported by gmake. I'm using libiconv 1.9.1_1, which seems to be the most current, and for the hell of it I also installed iconv 2.0_3. According to the archives of this and the ports list, this has come up before, but there wasn't any obvious solution--in one case it just seemed that lgiconv had been in an earlier version of libiconv, and then been deleted, but that had been some time ago and if this had been the problem I would have expected scrollkeeper to have been fixed itself. I've made an effort to get all potentially related ports updated to their most recent version, but it hasn't had any effect. I'd be quite grateful if someone could tell me what I'm missing. Thanks.
