There was a problem hiding this comment.
Can you explain a little more in depth how this works? We thought you could just set EDIT_CFG_ICUUC_SONAME and friends in any build environment on any version of any Linux distribution. Why is that insufficient on Ubuntu 14.04? (Also: that version is 12 years old, I'm surprised someone is still using it!)
Thanks!

Hi,
It showed that libicu autodetect doesn't work in Ubuntu14.04. I made a fix that solves the issue.
I found that same code can be compiled with apple compiler which would fail. That is reason I added cfg depend.
Otherwise I also made fix for macos if someone likes to use with homebrew licicu. I attach full patch_full.txt.
It compiles with command:
EDIT_CFG_ICUUC_SONAME="libicuuc.dylib" EDIT_CFG_ICUI18N_SONAME="libicui18n.dylib" EDIT_CFG_ICU_RENAMING_AUTO_DETECT="true" RUSTFLAGS="-C link-arg=-Wl,-rpath,/opt/homebrew/opt/icu4c/lib" cargo build --releaseRegards, Primoz
