hello,

i already heard of this iconv issue. people had serious problems configuring
galeon with that iconv thing. from what i remember people talked about broken
glibc or something like this. also about some separate packages or something
like this. i am hearing about his more and more not only on #galeon also on
#nautilus, #gimp and #gnome. this must be a serious problem.

cheers.
