Hello café:
I'd very much like to get text-icu working on Windows, as then I could ship pandoc binaries that do proper unicode collation in bibliographies. But I'm having a devil of a time. This may be due to my very limited Windows knowledge. Any help would be appreciated, especially from someone who actually has text-icu working on Windows.
I was able to cabal install text-icu without errors. I used --extra-lib-dirs and --extra-include-dirs to point to the lib and include directories in the 32-bit binary distribution of icu4c.
You don't need to change the .cabal file, if you specify the paths to the libraries and header files in environment variables, see: http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Windows#Tools_for_compilation If there are DLLs missing, you can find out which, using cygcheck from the Cygwin project. Note, that you will get problems if you have both MinGW and Cygwin in your search path; it is best to specify the full path to cygcheck.exe, or copy cygcheck.exe to some location in the search path.
