wrong libicu library version

[dfg]

Binary package hint: source-highlight

When running source-highlight, the following shows up:

source-highlight: error while loading shared libraries: libicudata.so.38: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

It seems that Lucid is shipped with libicu42

Thanks for reporting this bug.

I can't reproduce this on a lucid instance, so I will mark this fix released.

Problem is still happening.
You should be able to reproduce the problem as following:
echo "int x;"|source-highlight

I get the reported error when doing so.

The problem is clearly that source-highlight was linked against libicudata.so.38, whereas the installed version in lucid seems to be 42.

The fix shold just be to recompile and relink source-highlight with the installed library version.

It works in quantal right now, so marking the main part of this bug Fix Released. But I opened a new task in this bug for the Lucid part.

lucid has seen the end of its life and is no longer receiving any updates. Marking the lucid task for this ticket as "Won't Fix".
