Please create pull requests instead of asking for help on Homebrew's GitHub,
Discourse, Twitter or IRC.

I tried installing libiconv and libiconv-devel. Homebrew couldnt find any available formula for libiconv-devel. I got the following message when trying to install libiconv "libiconv is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /usr/local,
because macOS already provides this software and installing another version in
parallel can cause all kinds of trouble"

OSX: 10.14.6 Homebrew: 2.4.9
