pkg-config requires version 8.0.0 or later, but libiconv.2.dylib provides version 7.0.0

Hi,

I noticed that several port utilities do not work properly anymore (e.g. latex from texlive, xdvi, dvips, dvipdf, etc.). Therefore, after a successful 'selfupdate', I tried 'sudo port upgrade outdated'. However, this failed when configuring 'poppler' for the upgrade.

Saying:

The interesting bits from /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_graphics_poppler/poppler/main.log read:

What can I do there? I was short to re-install macports as a whole :)

Thanks and best wishes, Simon
