As others pointed out, this is documented at several places. In the changelog of the package (build without icu-config)[1], ICU upstream (the icu-config tool has been deprecated)[2] and in a bug report of PyICU (please use pkg-config to detect icu)[3]. The latter also reveals its the PyICU developer who don't want to use the new ICU development location method (pkg-config). On the other hand, PyICU is packaged and up-to date - you don't have to install it via pip. But if you do, according to the PyICU maintainer can use environmental variables to help its installation.
