Transmission requires libiconv and libintl?

I decided to reboot my mybook and noticed that transmission had not automatically started as it usually does.

Upon starting it manually I was informed that it could not find some necessary libraries that were not previously required. Notably libintl and libiconv.

I installed gettext to get libintl, and libiconv is in the optware stream. Were these always required? I don't think so cause I had a look at my old ldconfig -p and there was no sign of either library. Hopefully if others encounter these problems they will easily be fixed.

P.S. I'm on firmware 2.00.15

What version of transmission are you running…did you do an update in ipkg?

I am running:

transmission - 1.06+r5187-2

and haven't see this requirement yet.
