Test failure: missing BlockCodes ?

[andreasabel]

The CI on macOS for GHC 9.6 reports a failed test case (ICU_VER=73.2):
https://github.com/haskell/text-icu/actions/runs/6341389638/job/17224925448#step:11:26

t_blockCode: [Failed]
*** Failed! (after 76 tests):
Exception:
  toEnum{BlockCode}: tag (322) is outside of enumeration's range (0,320)
  CallStack (from HasCallStack):
    error, called at Data/Text/ICU/Char.hsc:485:17 in text-icu-0.8.0.2-inplace:Data.Text.ICU.Char
'\203257'

The Windows CI has a similar test failure (ICU_VER=73.2):
https://github.com/haskell/text-icu/actions/runs/6341389638/job/17224926997#step:11:25

  t_blockCode: [Failed]
*** Failed! (after 47 tests):
Exception:
  toEnum{BlockCode}: tag (322) is outside of enumeration's range (0,320)
  CallStack (from HasCallStack):
    error, called at Data\Text\ICU\Char.hsc:485:17 in text-icu-0.8.0.2-inplace:Data.Text.ICU.Char
'\201586'

These could be symptomatic that text-icu has fallen behind the ICU lib.
ICU 72 has Unicode 15, but currently only ICU 70 is supported.

I suppose this package needs some updates to the state of the art.

Same with '\202654'

[vshabanov]

Thank you, just uploaded text-icu-0.8.0.3 which fixes the issue.

Some of the tests fail now because they use the pre-72 version of ICU

Yes I see for Stackage LTS:

             : [Failed]                                                                                                             
           expected: [ChessSymbols,CjkUnifiedIdeographsExtensionH,Kawi]                                                             
            but got: [ChessSymbols,NoBlock,NoBlock]           

It would be nice if there was some detection.

CI on ubuntu-22.04 fails now always. This platform comes with ICU 70.1, see https://github.com/haskell/text-icu/actions/runs/6371163841/job/17292886318#step:8:17.
It would be good if text-icu worked smoothly for the latest Ubuntu LTSs (those shipped by github actions) also from the developer perspective. That means, cabal test should run out-of-the-box.

We should probably open a new issue or reopen this one?

I need to allow the tests to fail in Nightly too

[vshabanov]

Should be fixed in text-icu-0.8.0.4

[andreasabel]

I deprecated 0.8.0.3 on hackage.

If you would like the testsuite re-enabled in Stackage, please open a PR for that, thanks
