Maintainers of packages that depend on ICU --

I have uploaded icu_3.6-1 to sid.  There is an soname change for this
version and the libicu34-dev package is now libicu36-dev.  However,
since ICU 3.6, in addition to providing some new interfaces, maintains
backward compatibility, libicu36-dev Provides libicu34-dev.  It would
probably be a good idea for you to go ahead and change your build
dependency from libicu34-dev to libicu36-dev, but it is not necessary
to do a special upload just for this purpose.  I will request binary
NMUs from the release team for all packages that build depend upon
libicu34-dev.
