I would have wished a similar clear statement in /usr/ports/UPDATING as I am obviously not the only one who is misinterpreting the base iconv role. But may be I am a bit too focused on migrating as I have just recently finish the necessary migration to databases/db5. And of course from time to time I have had some trouble in the past with broken ports dependencies worrying it might be the same with iconv :-). Regards, Peter
