Re: [icu-support] Problem using ICU Data Build Tool - library size is not reduced

[Shane C. <sf...@go...>]

Did you remember to download the data sources and populate the data
directory with them? This paragraph on the doc page:

You must have the data sources in order to use the ICU Data Build Tool.
Check for the file icu4c/source/data/locales/root.txt. If that file is
missing, you need to download "icu4c-*-data.zip" and replace the contents
of icu4c/source/data with the data directory from the zip file.

If you already did that step, let me know and I'll look closer.
