For the record:
I assume that I actually did not run the OpenSUSE installed firebird
version before but a version I compiled myself with ICU 3.0 default and
that OpenSUSE restored the original startscript. I could fix the issue
by copying the ICU 3.0 library files
libicudata.so.30
libicudata.so.30.0
libicui18n.so.30
libicui18n.so.30.0
libicuuc.so.30
libicuuc.so.30.0
from the self compiled Firebird version to /usr/lib64 and to change
/usr/lib64/firebird/intl/fbintl.conf
"
<intl_module builtin>
icu_versions default
</intl_module>
"
to
"
<intl_module builtin>
icu_versions default 3.0
</intl_module>
"
I am still interested how one can find out the used ICU version (or
versions?) of a database file.
BTW, I am the author of the very sophisticated and very unknown cross
platform development environment MSEide+MSEgui for Free Pascal which has
excellent Firebird support - I think. ;-)
