 hi everyone,

 i just bought a new mac book and am currently installing all required
 libraries for my project.
 i have the newest setup possible to date,

 osx 10.7.3, xcode 4.3, macports 2.0.4

 compiling libxml2 always worked flawlessly before,
 now, however, fails:

 $sudo port install libxml2
 --->  Computing dependencies for libxml2
 Error: Dependency 'libiconv' not found.
 Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
 To report a bug, see <http://guide.macports.org/#project.ticke


 the only port file i find here is:
 $port search libiconv
 php5-iconv @5.3.10 (php, textproc)
     a PHP interface to the libiconv character encoding conversion
 functions

 i can not find libiconv on the machine. is it due to a broken ports file
 or the new setup of Xcode that libiconv could be missing? i assume if
 libiconv comes from osX/Xcode by default, it should be in the standard
 directories... ?

 thank you in advance for your help!
