Title: WL: libicu Status in IUS Community Project: New Bug description: The excellent php intl extension you bundle (e.g. php54-intl, php55-intl) is dependant on the system's installed ICU library libicu (http://site.icu-project.org/). This means that even if I with your help can run a recent PHP version on for example a RHEL 5 machine, it will still use a very outdated ICU library. E.g. RHEL 5 has ICU version 3.6 (released 2006-09-01) and RHEL 6 has ICU version 4.2.1 (released 2009-07-01). On RHEL 5 this means my intl extension can't for example provide me with the country name of country code RS (Serbia) due to this: > var_dump(Locale::getDisplayRegion('und-RS', 'en')); string(2) "RS" On a RHEL 6 machine this would give: > var_dump(Locale::getDisplayRegion('und-RS', 'en')); string(6) "Serbia" Would it be an option for ius to start bundling recent versions of libicu and declare php-intl's dependency against that package to keep things up-to-date? How to determine ICU version: $ php -i | grep "ICU version" ICU version => 3.6 $ rpm -qi libicu | grep Version Version : 3.6 Vendor: Red Hat, Inc.
