To maintainers of packages that depend on ICU: I'm uploading ICU version 4.0.1 to unstable. This version is fully source compatible but is not binary compatible. As such, your packages will have to be rebuilt but should not otherwise need to be modified, unless you depend on a specific version of ICU.
I am requesting the release team to schedule rebuilds of packages that depend on ICU so the transition can go through. There should be no need for you to do a special upload unless you are currently working around some issue with version 3.8. There will probably be a second ICU transition to version 4.2 in the not-too-distant future, but there were enough issues resolved by going to 4.0 that I decided to do this one anyway. -- Jay Berkenbilt <[email protected]>
