Hi,
I was trying to install webrat on my Mac, but I've got the error, that the iconv.h is missing. Here is the log:
Building native extensions. This could take a while...
ERROR: Error installing webrat:

The weird thing is, that the iconv.h is already in the /opt/local/include/ directory.
Can anyone recommend a solution?
thx,
