Subject: rsync getting old "libiconv.so.2 not found" error, after updating to version 3.2.7-1 (latest)
Hi Matthias
The hardcoded /opt/freeware/lib libpath for libiconv is missing in the latest version.
We will fix this and upload the fixed version to AIX Toolbox.
Any Toolbox related issues can be posted at AIX Open Source forum

Hello community,
we updated the AIX Toolbox RPMs on our AIX 7.3 SAP systems yesterday and now realized, that rsync version 3.2.7-1 is getting errors when running under SIDadm user environment.
h3pdb1:h3padm> rsync
exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program rsync because of the following errors:
0509-150 Dependent module /usr/lib/libiconv.a(libiconv.so.2) could not be loaded.
0509-152 Member libiconv.so.2 is not found in archive
We found out, that this was due to LIBPATH being explicitly set für SIDadm environment. Unsetting "LIBPATH" in SIDadm user environment makes rsync 3.2.7-1 run w/o errors. This symptom/error had been already fixed in version 3.2.3-1 (see AIX Open Source: Member libiconv.so.2 is not found in archive) and unfortunately has been re-invented in new version. Doing a "dnf downgrade rsync", installed version 3.2.3-1 again and error was gone :-)
I wanted to share this information with you and also ask, how to get this info passed to the developers, that they can fix it?
