Yup. Seems like it's obviously not a problem that the package conflicts with something that doesn't exist. BuildConflicts is always a crutch. A better solution would be for the package to fix its flags or configuration logic so it doesn't see that package (for those that have it, or the libicu36-dev that *does* exist for others) even if it were installed.
