Installing problen: ld: library not found for -licule

[miguelwon]

Hi, So I'm having some troubles installing pyicu in my mac. I'm running the following command:

CFLAGS='-I/usr/local/opt/icu4c/include -I/opt/local/include' LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/opt/icu4c/lib pip install pyicu

and it results in the error:

ld: library not found for -licule

Which library is this licule?

@miguelwon same problem here still on macOS Sierra. In the end I had to take the steps here:

Short version:

brew install icu4c
brew link icu4c --force

did not work for me. then I need to give ICU_VERSION manually in setup.py.
