Woow, good catch!
1,700 packages depend on icu4c so the update would have to go to
‘core-updates’, but that won’t be merged until several weeks.
For ‘master’, in the meantime, I see two solutions:
1. If the bug only affects specific applications, we could add an
icu4c variant and use that only where needed (icecat, 0ad, etc.).
2. If the bug manifests itself pervasively we could graft it in
‘master’ (I guess it’s ABI-compatible, right?).
Thoughts?
Thank you for addressing it!
Ludo’.
