Installing ICU ports on freebsd 11.0

[Edwin Ancaer]

Bernt,

thanks for the example. I've got the same libraries:
[edwin at ottopedi ~]$ ls -al /usr/local/lib/libicu*

/usr/local/lib/libicuuc.so.58.2


What makes the size of the files is different from 1 machine to the other?
Do I have to define the supported locales somewhere in FreeBSD before
generating the libraries?

Thanks for helping out

Edwin
