Grep in gnome-control-center source package in ubuntu and the git
repository reveal no direct icu usage. Are you sure it's not some other
component? Also jhbuild sets trivially allow one building all reverse-
depends include core components and patching stuff if needed.
The risk is high here.
We are late in the cycle and will not have time to fix issues from another
full-archive rebuild.
icu is a core component, if for example some software detects icu-*.pc files
and prefers those above icu-config and there is a bug in icu-*.pc usage....
then an SRU or security update might simply not build. That would be really
bad. The risk is too high here.
Did you rebuild all reverse dependencies all the way up? or did a static
analysis on those?
