Give 4.0-6 a whirl. Moving icu-config into sources rather than a patch should sort out those warnings, and tweaking the linker link should fix up the shared-lib-without-dependency-information "Error" and related unused-direct-shlib-dependency warnings, along with most of the other warnings.
I looked into 4.0-6 release. rpmlint is silent on SRPM but on RPMs libicu.i386: W: shared-lib-calls-exit /usr/lib/libicutu.so.40.0 exit@GLIBC_2.0 ==> I think if this needs to be really fixed then it needs to open another bug. also after installing libicu rpm in rawhide, I see rpmlint complained same as reported in comment#1.
libicu.i386: W: shared-lib-calls-exit /usr/lib/libicutu.so.40.0 I don't really think it need to be fixed, especially as a warning vs an error, but I guess we *could* submit a patch upstream to e.g. convert all those exits to some sort of throwing of an exception instead
Thanks for your comment. Definitely this is not packaging issue but upstream source code issue. This package is now APPROVED. You can CLOSE this review as reviewed package is already in rawhide.
