looks like more PRs got blocked by this PR, especially the nodejs ones.

[botantony]

Hope I could finish it soon but unfortunately I do not see any progress. If nothing promising comes out today, I'm closing this PR until someone else bothers to fix x64 linux build for dotnet

[daeho-ro]

Can we update icu4c@77 syntax only and then keep qt@5 and dotnet bottles? @Homebrew/core

That's not a good idea. See https://docs.brew.sh/Homebrew-homebrew-core-Maintainer-Guide#summary.

Before making use of a staging branch, there is one important disadvantage to consider: once you have merged bottle updates to the staging branch, it is very difficult to take them back. This typically involves deleting uploaded bottles, which will occasionally require an owner of the Homebrew GitHub organisation to delete uploaded bottles one at a time.

You will probably need to merge this without dotnet x64 Linux bottles.

The dependents will also need to be on icu4c@77. Could cause problems with versioned dependency conflicts. Assuming that isn't an issue, it might work. But I don't think you can get around the versioned dependency conflict issue.

[cho-m]

First thing I would consider is checking if the formulae with version conflicts are functionally impacted by the conflict. If low risk, then would just use versioned_dependencies_conflicts_allowlist.json to get PR over the line.

ICU uses versioned symbols and the risk would be even lower if the ICU usage is in shelled off commands rather than loaded together at once.

[cho-m]

To give an example, undercutf1 has a mixed ICU usage due to its ffmpeg dependency which indirectly needs ICU.

The way it uses FFmpeg is via https://github.com/rosenbjerg/FFMpegCore which is a wrapper around the executable not the library

• https://github.com/rosenbjerg/FFMpegCore/blob/main/FFMpegCore/FFMpeg/FFMpegArgumentProcessor.cs#L273

This means the ICU loaded by .NET shouldn't interact with the one loaded by FFmpeg.

cdxgen uses dotnet runtime for dosai plugin so it should not create conflicts with node
