My cd drive has not worked for most of the life of this machine. It
seems a common suggestion to reinstall leopard when there is a
problem, as far as I am concerned that is completely impractical I
doubt I even still have the CD's and there is too much in the way that
it's setup, and not something I would consider, seriously I reinstall
windows when it breaks... macs you can normally fix, I am more likely
to find an alternative approach to macport than reinstall my system.
Maybe installing linux instead when it gets too hard to keep this
leopard alive.
Can anyone suggest how I can fix libiconv-24 or what ever the files
are, is no one running a leopard that can send me privately some
replacement files? Or suggest how I might 'upgrade' this aspect of my
system?

have a copy of rsync that would work for leopard?
This is the error I get.

I tried getting a git of rsync and building rsync myself but it

not make.
Are you sure it's not your libiconv that's broken? Installing the
10.5.8
combo updater should restore rsync anyway.
Yeah, you should never clobber your OS files. It looks as though
your libiconv was clobbered. 10.5.0 and 10.5.8 both had libiconv-24
(see http://opensource.apple.com), so it's likely that the combo
update won't restore your libiconv, but give it a shot anyways. If
it doesn't work, your best bet is to reinstall your OS because you
may have clobbered other files as well.
If you're sure it's just libiconv.dylib that you clobbered, you can
get it off of the install media (just copy over the one file).
