Comment:

 libiconv is a dependency of a number of ports, hence it wanting to install
 it.

 There are a few possibilities for this; check the size of the file it
 downloaded
 {{{
 ls -l /opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/libiconv/libiconv-1.12.tar.gz
 }}}
 If it's quite a bit smaller than 4.4MB it's probably an HTML error page
 instead of the file expected.  If it is around 4.4M then it may be a
 corrupt download.

 Can you run the following?
 {{{
 sudo port clean --all libiconv
 sudo port -d checksum libiconv
 }}}
 Post the results here if the checksum still fails, then we may be able to
 track it down to a server problem or something else.  If it works, it was
 probably just a corrupted download and you should be able to continue on
 with your original installs.
