Today I started some ports' upgrade and icu went from 50.1.2 to 52.1.
As soon as this happened, lots of applications are not working anymore.

Hmmm... so, to make it short:
# ln -s libicudata.so.50.1.2 libicu
# ln -s libicudata.so.50.1.2 libicudata.so.50
and Firefox and LibreOffice are starting again.
This may very well come back to bite you in the future, causing
mysterious failures long after you've forgotten you did it. Here's a
little Ruby script to detect these (it needs updating to work with pkg):

Running pkg_libchk [-q] after port upgrades has worked well for me. It
is from sysutils/bsdadminscripts by Dominic Fandrey, and easily detects
applications that are using old libraries and should be rebuilt. It
worked this time also.
