I'm getting a -liconv but no libiconv with that link.
It's indeed the same error I had.

Update: I have a fresh Mountain Lion (10.8.2) test system now and the build process works fine, so I guess it's MacPorts/Homebrew that is causing these issues. I will try to see what can be done about that (other than uninstalling MacPorts).

Compiling on a clean Mac 10.8.2 system with Xcode 4.6.

FYI, it compiled on my iMac (under 10.8 or 10.7, can't recall), which does have macports. So it might not be strictly linked to that.

Do you mean to say it worked, or didn't work, or it's in progress?

For the wxWidgets/iconv error, it may be helpful to see what wxWidgets' configure scripts are doing. This is logged in config.log in the build directory, "libraries/osx/wxwidgets/wxWidgets-2.9.4/build-release/config.log".

Any version of OS X to this point (including 10.8) should have libiconv available in /usr/include/iconv.h and /usr/lib/libiconv.dylib, but maybe MacPorts or something is confusing it. I have a possible fix that involves using --with-libiconv-prefix=/usr to override whatever configure is finding.

So I tried installing MacPorts, then all the ports required for the old build system, then ran the new build system from scratch, all worked perfectly on 10.8.3 w/ Xcode 4.6. "otool -L pyrogenesis" revealed it wasn't even linking with MacPorts libs - it seems that won't happen by default. Then I tried the same with Homebrew, with the same results. So I'm thinking there is more to those build issues than MacPorts or Homebrew, it could be some other app was installed that mangled the build environment, or they were installed in a non-default way. But I can't reproduce the errors so easily.

If you have errors, I would suggest checking there are no conflicts in your SVN/git repo, that everything updated cleanly, and then looking for any apps that might have modified the build environment in some way. It also may be worth knowing whether you upgraded OS X or it was a clean install?

In response to Geek377's build log from IRC: you need to install cmake as described in the instructions

Thanks, for this and dealing with my busy schedule. Somehow I missed that in the instruction... being stupid as usual
