Packages using libarchive-3.6.2 fail to configure because the pkgconfig file references a non existent iconv.pc file. There are two PR that can be used to fix that:

It looks like solutions similar to https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/pull/1817 don't work in some cases (see https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/pull/1812). We might want to wait for some time to see what solution is taken eventually.

Wouldn't sed -e "/iconv/d" -i /usr/lib/pkgconfig/libarchive.pc help fixing that issue for now?

Fighting symptoms rather than the cause.

Archlinux have: sed -i "s/iconv //" "$pkgdir"/usr/lib/pkgconfig/libarchive.pc Which is similar, but keeps the Requires.Private: line
