FWIW I installed the HEAD revision of the validator on a solaris machine, and libiconv was there in /usr/local/lib. We exclusively use gcc, as opposed to Sun's cc, so make of that what you will. All I needed to do to the Text::Iconv Makefile.pl was add '-liconv' to the appropriate place and then it found the existing library and built successfully. All of the SP package built cleanly with gcc under Solaris too. P __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
