             Summary: Remove ICU dependency of kuromoji tools/test-tools
                 Key: LUCENE-8866
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8866
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Robert Muir


The tooling stuff has an off-by-default option to normalize entries, currently using the ICU api.

But I think since its off-by-default, and just doing NFKC normalization at dictionary-build-time, its a better tradeoff to use the JDK here?

I would rather remove the ICU dependency for the tooling and look at simplifying the build to have less modules (e.g. investigate moving the tooling and tests into src/java and src/tools, so that [~msokolov@gmail.com] new tests in LUCENE-8863 are running by default, dictionary tool is shipped as a commandline tool in the JAR, etc)

"ant regenerate" should be enough to prevent any chicken-and-eggs in the dictionary construction code, so I don't think we need separate modules to enforce it.
