[Bug 1302963] Re: Calendar() class can not be initialized

[Greg Lutostanski]

I don't think you need to install pyicu-1.7, the released packages for
pyicu are at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pyicu

I can setup a ppa if needed. But if you are on trusty or saucy you should just be able to:
apt-get install python-pyicu
and then go about seeing if a fix works.

What release are you testing on?

also, feel free to ping me on irc if desired.
