How to Check your ICU Version running on your Linux Server

I work as a Database Administrator and my Databases run on Linux Boxes.

I received a notice this morning from our Software Vendor informing me that I needed to upgrade to either version ICU 52.1 or 58.3.

I did several searches to find an easy way to check the ICU version were are using.

After much searching, way more than I expected, I decided to create this Blog Post with hopes that it would be easier for ALL to find it.


cd /usr/lib

icu-config --version

52.1

Last Rays of Summer

This is my cat Sasha, or Sascha as my wife likes to call her, enjoying the last days of summer in the valley before the fog settles in for the winter.  She was so content in the Sun, that not even the stupid Camera on my LG Optimus S was enough to wake her.  I did a search as to why they have a shutter sound on the camera that you are not able to disable and my google search informed me that it is a deterrent for individuals taking pictures of people that don't want their picture taken, and sometimes cats!

This just makes me Laugh!!!!
