What's that error?

This is a package configuration error on the Mac. The pkg-config command is
saying that the icu-uc package is installed, but the compiler is saying that a
file that should then be there (/usr/include/unicode/uchar.h) isn't. I'm not
sure how Mac tools name packags, but, on my system the missing package is named
libicu-devel.
