The debian package for ICU and indeed earlier versions of ICU itself did not install .pc files. The correct thing to do is to check pkg-config for ICU and then fall back to icu-config. I'm not sure what's up with the original bug report. I'm not sure why invoking icu-config doesn't fail when the development packages aren't installed.
