fuse-bindings-python25 0.2 import fails: _iconv not found

[kentk@…]

After a clean install of macfuse 1.7 and fuse-bindings-python25 0.2, I get this:

Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Jul  8 2008, 16:31:55)

Symbols in libiconv:

kkarlsson:~ kkarlsson$ nm /opt/local/lib/libiconv.2.dylib | grep iconv
/opt/local/lib/libiconv.2.dylib(single module):
000f8020 D __libiconv_version

00016590 T _libiconv

00018f50 T _libiconv_set_relocation_prefix
00016610 T _libiconvctl
00016850 T _libiconvlist

The symbol is not something found in libiconv, and I'm not sure where the reference even comes from, because fusemodule.c doesn't ever call anything iconv*

Assigning to maintainer.

Hmm, another iconv vs. libiconv symbol error, like #13055.

If someone can find a solution to this issue (similar to the other tickets fixed and listed here: ​http://trac.macports.org/wiki/blb#libiconv-symbols) I would be eternally grateful.

Hopefully those other tickets have clues for more experienced MacPorts developers to be able to fix this.

Seems to work fine here (MacPorts 1.7.0, OS 10.5.6, XCode 3.1.2). Most things shouldn't be building with flat namespace any more in MP 1.7 because it now sets MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET appropriately.

[macports8@…]

jmr, do you have the libiconv port installed?

Replying to macports8@…:

jmr, do you have the libiconv port installed?

Yes. Python25 depends on gettext which depends on libiconv.

I have this exact problem now with MacPorts 1.8.0.

i just came up against this and fixed with the following:

sudo port patch macfuse

then edit 10.x/libfuse/fuse-2.7.3-macosx.patch in the work dir. find the entries for the darwin_configure shell scripts and append the following arg to the configures: --with-libiconv-prefix=/opt/local

then finish the installation as normal:

sudo port install macfuse

building and using the fuse bindings worked for me after doing this.

Adding macfuse maintainer to cc as per comment:14.

Added --with-libiconv-prefix in r73010
