Can't do UPDATING: 20130904, libiconv has never been on the system.

Not sure whether to allow portmaster to upgrade[*]. Pretty sure
something will break if I do. What do you suggest?

Hi,

Since then a new commit has changed things a little, it's r341775 [1]

It now allows libiconv to be installed by a few selected ports who really need functionality not available in the base implementation of iconv.



[*]
# portmaster -adwv
===>>> All >> (4)

===>>> The following actions will be taken if you choose to proceed:
         Upgrade php55-iconv-5.5.8 to php55-iconv-5.5.8_1
         Install converters/libiconv
         Upgrade nginx-1.4.4_2,1 to nginx-1.4.4_3,1
         Upgrade owncloud-6.0.0a to owncloud-6.0.1

===>>> Proceed? y/n [y] n



From what I see here I think you can allow it to do that without problems for now. I've seen two PRs stating problems with some ports.

The PRs I've indicate that, after such a step, glib20 and exim fail to build. These problems need fixing at present.

This applies only to ports compiled on the live system, if one is using poudriere or tinderbox they can build anyway(so binary packages have no problems), this happens because when using these software each port is compiled in a clean environment.
