Hi,

Please kindly check if you can remove the libiconv dependency.

It should not be needed, as this tool depends on glibc, which has its own iconv() implementation.

Libiconv is GNU's iconv implementation for non-GNU-dependent projects; i.e., projects that don't use glibc.

There is a patch for this issue at https://forum.openwrt.org/t/tools-bison-lib-fseterr-c-build-problems-on-18-06-0-due-to-glibc-2-28-changes/18926 that does fix the compiling issue for me.

I am getting this error and it won't compile:

fseterr.c: In function 'fseterr': fseterr.c:77:3: error: #error "Please port gnulib fseterr.c to your platform! Look at the definitions of ferror and clearerr on your system, then report this to bug-gnulib." #error "Please port gnulib fseterr.c to your platform!
