 Back in time I had big hardware problems and only tested LibreOffice,
which was successful. HW issues is softened by Martin F. Krafft and
Jeffrey Walton since DebConf'16. Catching up with my backlog and the
big rebuild session planned to this weekend.
Meanwhile Ubuntu took my ICU package from experimental and made it
default without any additional patch to their upcoming Yakkety Yak
release[1]. This is a good sign that it doesn't have any problem, but
better to wait my own results. Is amd64 / i386 rebuilds enough or
should I try kFreeBSD i386 / amd64 and/or (emulated) ARM64 rebuilds?

Cheers,
Laszlo/GCS
