Most likely because glibc-dev is much more likely to be installed than the standalone libiconv (as in, distros using the GNU C Library should already have an iconv() implementation.) I suspect there's a desync between the glibc and standalone versions (both of them from GNU anyway) or maybe your app just really needs a newer iconv() than the one glibc supplies. -- Zak B.
