System: NetBSD rainier.reedmedia.net 1.6 NetBSD 1.6 (JCR-20020927) #3: Sat Sep 28 13:40:20 PDT 2002 reed@rainier.reedmedia.net:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/JCR-20020927 i386

>Description:
I noticed that converters/libiconv/buildlink2.mk only checks
for the include file.

For example, gtexinfo wouldn't build:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -liconv
>How-To-Repeat:
Try to build something that uses converters/libiconv/buildlink2.mk
but no actual library installed.
>Fix:
Please add a mk/bsd.pkg.defaults.mk option to force that
converters/libiconv is always required when using that buildlink2.mk.

And here is my workaround which should also be applied:
