- Update to version 3.8:
+ Locale Data: ICU uses and supports data from Common Locale Data
Repository (CLDR) 1.5.0.1, which includes many improvements in
quality and quantity of data.
+ Rule Based Time Zone: This set of classes provides the ability
to read and write time zone data in RFC2445 VTIMEZONE format.
This also provides access Olson timezone transitions.
+ Timezone Formatting: This has changed to give more human
readable results.
+ Relative Date/Time Formatting: A draft of the relative date/time
format class has been added. This functionality can be accessed
through the DateFormat::createDateInstance or DateFormat.getInstance
factory method. It provides the ability to format localized dates
in terms of \"yesterday\", \"today\" and \"tomorrow\", instead of a
specific only date or time.
+ Demonstrations and Tools

* ICU Data Library Customizer: This new online tool provides an
easier way customize ICU\'s data.

* ICU4J Demonstrations: These will demonstrate some features of
ICU4J, like calendars, transliteration, and several other
features.
+ Flexible Date/Time Formatting: A draft of flexible date/time
format generator has been added. This allows multiple date and
time format patterns to be generated that are valid for specific
locales. This funtionality can be accessed through the
DateTimePatternGenerator API.
+ Time Zones: The default time zone is detected more accurately
on Unix machines.
+ Additional Calendars

* AATTcalendar=taiwan: This calendar is a variant of the Gregorian
calendar used in Taiwan.

* AATTcalendar=indian: This is the Indian national calendar.

* AATTcalendar=persian: This is the Persian calendar. It is also
known as the Jal�li Calendar. It is used in several Arabic
countries.
+ UnicodeSet

* The Freezable design pattern is now supported, which can
improve performance for the contains() and span() methods
on frozen UnicodeSet objects.

* A span function was added for iterating through strings.

* The containsAll(string) and containsNone(string) now support
set strings, instead of only codepoints.
+ Performance

* Charset conversion performance has been enhanced. The
amount of improvement varies depending on the converter
being used and platform being used.

* Rule based transliterator construction performance has been
improved.
- s#%run_ldconfig#/sbin/ldconfig# in libicu\'s %post and %postun
- add libicu-regex.patch (bnc#354372).
