…tu Resolute
libicu-dev was dropped from the Ubuntu Resolute stemcell, breaking
postgres-16/17/18 compilation which requires ICU at build time.
- Add postgres-libicu BOSH package that compiles ICU4C 78.3 from a vendored
source tarball (static-only, --disable-shared) so postgres links ICU
statically with no runtime .so dependency
- Update postgres-15, -16, -17, -18 to support aarch64 in packaging scripts
- Update postgres-16, -17, -18 to declare postgres-libicu as a dependency
and use ${BOSH_PACKAGES_PATH:-/var/vcap/packages}/postgres-libicu in
configure flags with -lstdc++ to satisfy C++ runtime symbols from static ICU
Closes #98

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Please check the ICU release version and name changes between 77 and 78.

Thank you for the notification. We should handle this in a future-proof way, and I've adjusted the CI/CD job. I've also added SHA validation support. |

Ubuntu Resolute dropped
libicu-dev, which broke postgres-16, 17, and 18. This adds a newpostgres-libicuBOSH package that compiles ICU4C from source so postgres doesn't have to rely on the system library being present.The postgres-16/17/18 packaging scripts now point their configure flags at
${BOSH_PACKAGES_PATH}/postgres-libicuand declare it as a dependency. postgres-15 is unaffected — it doesn't use ICU.Also fixes the shebang pattern in those packaging scripts:
#!/bin/bash -exuis silently ignored by BOSH, replaced with#!/bin/bash+set -euo pipefail.On the CI side: Adds an
icu-srcConcourse resource tracking ICU4C releases on GitHub, abump-libicu-packagetask to automate blob bumps, and checksum validation viaSHASUM512.txt(same pattern as the existing yq bump task).Closes #98
