libicu36-dev provides a set of headers for the Apple-supplied ICU library, and includes a icu-config script which is supposed to provide appropriate flags.
However, while icu provides 7 separate libraries holding all its functionality, Apple consolidates these all into one library. This means that programs expecting to link against ICU libraries fail. In fact, the supplied icu-config script itself fails, since it can't find the ICU-named libraries. These problems can all be fixed (at least, they seem to be fixed) by changing the defaultprefix in /sw/lib/icu-config to be "/sw", and by adding the following symlinks (in /sw/lib). lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 55 19 Jun 22:54 libicudata.dylib -> / Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk/usr/lib/libicucore.dylib lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 55 19 Jun 22:54 libicui18n.dylib -> / Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk/usr/lib/libicucore.dylib lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 55 19 Jun 22:54 libicuio.dylib -> / Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk/usr/lib/libicucore.dylib lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 55 19 Jun 22:54 libicule.dylib -> / Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk/usr/lib/libicucore.dylib lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 55 19 Jun 22:54 libiculx.dylib -> / Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk/usr/lib/libicucore.dylib lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 55 19 Jun 22:55 libicutu.dylib -> / Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk/usr/lib/libicucore.dylib lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 55 19 Jun 22:54 libicuuc.dylib -> / Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk/usr/lib/libicucore.dylib Toby ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
