• package containing icu-config

    From Mick Bert@21:1/5 to All on Thu Sep 9 20:00:05 2021
    Trying to compile a software, the configure fails complaining for
    missing icu-config. I have already installed icu-devtools and
    libicu-dev. Which package should I install?

    Are there a way to query which package contains a particular file (maybe through apt-get or apt-cache, or even a service on the web)?

    apt-file search icu-config

    But you won't find it since it was deprecated upstream and you are
    supposed to use pkg-config now with libicu. icu-config wasn't multiarch compatible it seems. Most software using libicu seems to ahve updated
    by now to using pkg-config.
