Well, now you *do* have otool, why don't you show us the output of

 otool -L /sw/lib/libiconv.2.dylib

? We still try to find out what is wrong on your system, but we need you to 
tell us, our ESP facilities are limited.

There are still several possibilities:

1. Your /sw/lib/libiconv.2.dylib exists, but is really too old. In this case, 
one would have to try to understand how you can have acquired a dpkg that was 
built against a newer libiconv (well, where *did* you get your dpkg from, given 
that  you didn't build it?)

2. Your /sw/lib/libiconv.2.dylib does not exist, and dpkg loads 
/usr/lib/libiconv.2.dylib instead

3. You have a /usr/local/lib/libiconv.2.dylib that is loaded instead of the 
right one.

4. Something else

Only you can find out which one it is.
