7 years ago It seems the problem is unrelated to libfolia as such, but there is something wrong with some of these basic unix utilities on your mac installation. grep, sed and libtool may all depend on iconv, and something seems to have gotten messed up on the system. I assume if you just run grep or sed in a terminal, it immediately fails with the same error?
On mac I more often see things that are installed through homebrew might conflict with things provided by apple. It's not as neatly organised as on linux distributions. Perhaps a homebrew version of iconv may even stand in the way here.

When I try to install libfolia, I consistently receive the following error message:
grep: /usr/lib/libiconv.la: No such file or directory sed: /usr/lib/libiconv.la: No such file or directory libtool: error: '/usr/lib/libiconv.la' is not a valid libtool archive
I am working on a Mac OS Sierra environment, version 10.12.3. The folder that is mentioned does not contain a libiconv.la file. There is a libiconv.dylib file, however. I have tried to install libiconv using homebrew on my machine, but this did not create a libiconv.la file either.
Does anybody have an idea of what may be causing this problem, and of how I may solve this issue? I have attached the config.log file.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
