Description:

R cannot load ggplot2

R-3.2.2-1 starts, but when attempting to load ggplot:

> library(ggplot2)
Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) :
unable to load shared object '/home/foo/.r/stringi/libs/stringi.so':
libicui18n.so.55: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Error: package or namespace load failed for 'ggplot2'

Downgrading icu to icu-55.1-1 fixes the issue but then libreoffice-still-4.4.6-1, firefox-42.0-1, and probably many others that require icu-56 fail to start.

Steps to reproduce:

Fully update the system. Install R. From within R install ggplot2. Start R. Load ggplot2.
This task depends upon

Libraries installed by the R package manager are not under Arch control. You will have to rebuild them yourself when there's a soname bump.
