The following packages correspond to Rust crates that were refactored away from the ICU4X[1] stack upstream between version 1.5 and version 2.0. See [2] and [3] for details. These packages have now been retired in the EPEL10 leading branch (10.1, not 10.0) and in EPEL9.
- rust-icu_locid
- rust-icu_locid_transform
- rust-icu_locid_transform_data
- rust-icu_provider_macros
When we planned updates from ICU4X 1.5 to 2.0, we decided that
letting these few packages fail to install in Fedora 41/42 and
retiring them in EPEL9/10 would be less bad than branching 10-20
compat packages just to keep them installable. More details are
available in the epel-devel list email[4] about these
retirements.
Since nothing outside the ICU4X stack ever depended on these
four packages (making them leaf packages after the ICU4X 2.0
update), and since Rust library packages are in general only
useful for building other packages rather than for end users,
even developers, the retirement of these packages should have no
effect on anyone in practice.
