 %description
-Fast, correct, consistent, portable, as well as convenient character
-string/text processing in every locale and any native encoding. Owing to
-the use of the 'ICU' (International Components for Unicode) library, the
-package provides 'R' users with platform-independent functions known to
-'Java', 'Perl', 'Python', 'PHP', and 'Ruby' programmers. Available
-features include: pattern searching (e.g., with 'Java'-like regular
-expressions or the 'Unicode' collation algorithm), random string
-generation, case mapping, string transliteration, concatenation, Unicode
-normalization, date-time formatting and parsing, and many more.
