Step-by-step OpenJDK on OS X?

[Vijay Kiran]

Hi,

I tried to build the Open JDK 1.7 on Mac OSX 10.5.6

I'm getting the following error while building:

Undefined symbols:
   "_iconv", referenced from:
       _SplashConvertStringAlloc in splashscreen_sys.o
   "_iconv_open", referenced from:
       _SplashConvertStringAlloc in splashscreen_sys.o
   "_iconv_close", referenced from:
       _SplashConvertStringAlloc in splashscreen_sys.o
ld: symbol(s) not found
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[4]: *** [/Users/vijaykiran/dev/bsd-port/build/bsd-i586/lib/i386/

make[3]: *** [all] Error 1
make[2]: *** [all] Error 1
make[1]: *** [jdk-build] Error 2
make: *** [build_product_image] Error 2

Here's my env:
Mac OS X 10.5.6 9G38, 2.5GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

Darwin Kernel Version 9.6.0; root:xnu-1228.9.57~1/RELEASE_I386 i386

Build command:
make
ALT_BOOTDIR=/usr/local/soylatte16-i386-1.0.3
ALT_BINARY_PLUGS_PATH=/Users/vijaykiran/dev/java/jdk-7-icedtea-plugs
ALT_FREETYPE_HEADERS_PATH=/usr/X11R6/include
ALT_FREETYPE_LIB_PATH=/usr/X11R6/lib

Thanks In Advance,
