Public bug reported: (I am the debian maintainer of ICU)
Ubuntu trusty still has ICU 4.8, which is pretty old and has lots of bugs that have been fixed in the current release, 52.1. Debian has completed its transition to ICU 52.1. I don't plan on uploading any new upstream versions of ICU prior to the release of Ubuntu 14.04. It would be great both for security and functionality reasons if 14.04 LTS would ship with 52.1 instead of 4.8.1. It looks like your delta is small. If adding the same change to the debian version of the package is not incorrect for debian and would help you, I have no problem with making the change. Either let me know here or file an issue in the debian BTS. Thanks. ** Affects: icu (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1263706 Title: request sync: icu 52.1 from debian To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/icu/+bug/1263706/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
