>Description:
The "balsa2" package cannot be build under NetBSD 1.6.2 any more:

===> Checking for vulnerabilities in balsa-2.0.16nb2
=> Checksum OK for balsa-2.0.16.tar.bz2.
[...]
checking for smtp_start_session in -lesmtp... yes
checking for smtp_option_require_all_recipients in -lesmtp... yes
checking for smtp_starttls_set_password_cb in -lesmtp... yes
checking for iconv_open in -liconv... no
checking for iconv_open... no
configure: error: *** You need iconv for balsa.
*** Error code 1

Stop.
make: stopped in /src/NetBSD-current/pkgsrc/mail/balsa2
*** Error code 1

The problem is apparently that it insists on a symbol "iconv_open" while
the "libiconv" from the "libiconv" package provides "libiconv_open".

>How-To-Repeat:
cd pkgsrc/mail/balsa2
make

>Fix:
None provided.
