[Rails] SaltedHashLoginGenerator no such file to load -- iconv

[Dan Bikle]

ok,

I found the magic sauce.

It's actually on my beastie box

It's here:
/usr/ports/converters/ruby-iconv

If you are new to FreeBSD [ like me ],
/usr/ports/
is loaded up with a bunch of software which you can install.

Usually software I find there installs cleanly with a simple
make
make install

So, I installed ruby-iconv and now
require 'iconv'
returns true rather than an exception.
