iconv is either provided by your toolchain (if it has locale support),
or by libiconv. So, your package should do in its Config.in file:

	select BR2_PACKAGE_LIBICONV if !BR2_ENABLE_LOCALE

and in the .mk file:

ifeq ($(BR2_PACKAGE_LIBICONV),y)
<pkg>_DEPENDENCIES += libiconv
endif

Best regards,

Thomas
