Don't set the out-of-date flag. This package is for people who need icu73, so if you need the latest version, you should use icu. Alternatively, you can post a new icu-bin.

Is this package is still maintained?

The current PKGBUILD does not correctly deal with *.so symlinks in source package, leading to ldconfig spitting errors when using pacman. This will fix it.

Can you also add the header files (/usr/include/unicode-73/*) for icu73-bin?

dreieck commented on 2025-01-12 15:38 (UTC)

Can you please add .soname-provides entries?

Otherwise, icu73-bin is not a drop-in replacement for icu73 because packages depend on libicudata.so=73, libicui18n.so=73, libicuuc.so=73 etc.:

Can you please add pkg-config .pc files for icu73?

I currently fail to manually feed icu73 instead of the latest version of icu into a cmake project without this.

Regards!
