Re: Error compiling with icu support / possible workaround?

Great news. pandoc and citeproc supporting Unicode root collation alone is a big step forward, and getting collation for most, if not all other locales right is even better.

I have been testing a few more locales (my current list includes cy da de de-DE de-u-co-phonebk de-DE-u-co-phonebk de-AT-u-co-phonebk nl es es-u-co-search es-u-co-standard es-u-co-trad et fi fi-u-co-phonebk fo fr fr-CA fr-u-kb fr-FR-u-kb hu is nb nn pl sv sv-u-co-reformed), and all these look ok to me. (Caveat: My tests have been rather superficial so far, usually just a few lines with one or two letters focusing on those bits that diverge from root [e.g., sv: Aa / Ab / B / C / Va / Wa / Vz / Wz / X / Y / Z / Å / Ä / Ö, and still mainly based on info from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alphabetical_order#Language-specific_conventions alone.)

I’ll try to continue testing other locales as well, but there are areas such as CJK that I’ll have to leave to others entirely.

In addition, a few questions:

It seems that "xx-XX" tags can be used instead of "xx" in all contexts, even if not listed in README.md. For example, sv-SV-u-co-reformed falls back to sv-u-co-reformed, and de-DE-u-co-phonebk to de-u-co-phonebk. Is this supposed to be true across the board?

Some collations such as fr-u-kb seem to be gone now (the most recent unicode-collate --verbose tells me fr-u-kb falls back to Tailoring: ROOT). So it seems if you want "cote < côte < coté < côté" (following the "last syllable" rule), you’ll have to use fr-CA. A (maybe hypothetical) question: What about side effects of fr-CA, e.g., suppose you want the "last syllable" collation, but, assuming these are set automatically via the lang tag as well, a non-Canadian date format, currency symbol, etc. (conceivably when using latex commands such as \today in a pandoc -> latex/babel-or-polyglossia workflow)?
