20 This is a known issue. Your workaround is not correct/desired. I will
21 roll out a new snapshot today (hopefully) which fixes this problem.
22
23 If it is not too much work, I'd advise you to restart from scratch
24 (again) once I uploaded the new snapshot. Otherwise you need to fix
25 popt manually, unmerge libiconv again and continue where you left of
26 manually as well.

28 Sorry for the inconvenience.
