Hello, I tried to install the Text::Iconv module into my Strawberry Perl installation and got a bunch of undefined references when trying to link Iconv.dll: undefined reference to `_imp__libiconv' undefined reference to `_imp__libiconv' undefined reference to `_imp__libiconvctl' undefined reference to `_imp__libiconv_open' undefined reference to `_imp__libiconv_open' undefined reference to `_imp__libiconv_close' Full build log is attached.

Details on my config:
Apparently (judging from the build log), it is not being linked to libiconv. No wonder the functions can't be found. Since I don't have access to a Windows system, this is hard to debug. The need for -liconv is correctly detected, so -liconv should be added to the $config{LIBS}. I don't know why it is not used, maybe it's overwritten. Someone would have to figure this out.

I just managed to install Text::Iconv 1.7 on Strawberry 5.10.1, out of the box:

  CPAN.pm: Going to build M/MP/MPIOTR/Text-Iconv-1.7.tar.gz

Checking for iconv ... ok (added -liconv)

NOTE: If you have multiple iconv implementations installed, you might
      want to make sure that I've found the one you want to use.
      If necessary, you can explicitly specify paths like this:

      C:\strawberry\perl\bin\perl.exe Makefile.PL LIBS='-L/path/to/lib' INC='-I/path/to/include'

Checking if your kit is complete...
