Description:
------------
icu-config has been deprecated by its upstream developers for some years now. In icu 63.1,
icu-config is optional to install, but is installed by default. In the next version, icu-config will
no longer be installed by default.
The developers recommend downstream packages use pkg-config to detect the icu libraries.
Debian (and its derivatives, such as Ubuntu) will remove icu-config from its icu development package
(libicu-dev) very soon.
I have patched php7.3 to use pkg-config to detect icu (see attached patch).
I will submit a pull request on github with the same patch.
Please use pkg-config to detect icu.
Thank you
