>Description:
When building gnome2, it needs gnupg, which it tries to install as a dependency libgpg-error. libgpg-error needs libiconv. libiconv is installed, however libgpg-error wrongly detects libiconv as not installed.
Build goes like:

..................
===>  Patching for libgpg-error-1.10
===>   libgpg-error-1.10 depends on package: libtool>=2.4 - found
===>   libgpg-error-1.10 depends on package: libtool>=2.4 - found
===>   libgpg-error-1.10 depends on shared library: iconv.3 - not found
===>    Verifying reinstall for iconv.3 in /usr/ports/converters/libiconv
===>  Vulnerability check disabled, database not found
===>  License check disabled, port has not defined LICENSE
===>  Found saved configuration for libiconv-1.13.1_1
===>  Extracting for libiconv-1.13.1_1
=> SHA256 Checksum OK for libiconv-1.13.1.tar.gz.
===>  Patching for libiconv-1.13.1_1
===>  Applying FreeBSD patches for libiconv-1.13.1_1
===>   libiconv-1.13.1_1 depends on package: libtool>=2.4 - found
===>  Configuring for libiconv-1.13.1_1
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c -o root -g wheel
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... build-aux/install-sh -c -d
checking for gawk... gawk
......................
===>  Installing for libiconv-1.13.1_1
===>   Generating temporary packing list
===>  Checking if converters/libiconv already installed
===>   libiconv-1.13.1_1 is already installed
      You may wish to ``make deinstall'' and install this port again
      by ``make reinstall'' to upgrade it properly.
      If you really wish to overwrite the old port of converters/libiconv
      without deleting it first, set the variable "FORCE_PKG_REGISTER"
      in your environment or the "make install" command line.

>How-To-Repeat:
In a completely clean system try to install gnome2 by
portinstall -P /usr/ports/x11/gnome
>Fix:
setenv FORCE_PKG_REGISTER
