The reference to "/home/ekansh/anaconda3/lib/libxml2.so.2" looks
suspicious. This most likely means that you have a self-built libxml2 that
is used instead of the system libxml2 and the linker is not finding a
corresponding libiconv. I would suggest that at least in the beginning you
stick to system libraries or the LibreOffice included copies of libraries.
This normally helps to make it a smoother build experience and as soon as
you manage to get reliable builds you can still experiment with more
complicated setups.
