      <title>Installing git on linux</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Trying to install git from source on our linux server (we're running RHEL4 at work) and I was getting an error running make.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;pre&gt;
undefined reference to `libiconv'
&lt;/pre&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Running make like this worked.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;pre&gt;
make install CFLAGS="-liconv"
&lt;/pre&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But after the install was finished, running git barfed at me about loading a shared library libiconv.so.2.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I had to edit /etc/ld.so.conf and add /usr/local/lib and run ldconfig.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Credit Mark Turner for the ldconfig tip.  Thanks man.&lt;/p&gt;
