Not one of ours – local-install, not maintained (2026-09-19)
icu77 already exists on AUR, maintained by hinanoaira (submitted
2026-02, currently 77.1-3) – we are NOT the maintainer. Does not fit
the [[icu74]]/[[icu75]]/[[icu76]] “we own this shim package” pattern.
User wanted it built for archlinuxaba anyway, adapted for
i486/i686/pentium4 (upstream only ships arch=(x86_64)). Followed the
documented local-install workflow (see auto-memory
feedback_local_install_rebuilds.md): fresh git clone
https://aur.archlinux.org/icu77.git /data/INSTALL/icu77 (found a
stale existing checkout there first – backed it up to -old, cloned
fresh rather than reuse, deleted -old after publish succeeded),
edited arch=(x86_64) -> arch=(x86_64 i486 i686 pentium4), pkgrel
3 -> 3.1 (X.Y scheme for local edits, since we don’t own the upstream
pkgrel sequence). Registered as local-install/icu77 in
arch/scripts/install_only_packages.
Built and published clean for all 4 archs (+ debug variants) via
repo_release.sh /data/INSTALL/icu77 (passthrough mode, no arch/
staging since this isn’t a git-submoduled arch/ package). Upstream’s
PKGBUILD is a single-line arch=() so it doesn’t hit the multi-line
parsing gotcha noted in icu74’s memory. Upstream also does its own
validpgpkeys verification (ICU Release Robot key,
D46C5610D06E7001) and gets LICENSE from inside the source tarball
itself rather than a separate download – doesn’t have the
moving-main-branch LICENSE bug icu74/75/76 had.
Local edits do not survive a future re-clone (per the
local-install workflow doc) – if this needs rebuilding again after a
version bump, re-apply the arch=() expansion and X.Y pkgrel by hand,
or note the divergence again here.
