Tooling Impact
Customer Impact
Customer reported inability to install PowerShell .deb package on Debian 13 due to missing libicu76 dependency (issue #25865).
Regression
REQUIRED: Check exactly one box.
This is not a regression.
Testing
The author tested by building the .deb locally with .NET 10 and verified successful installation on Debian 13 after the change. Package installation can be tested on Debian 13 systems.
Risk
REQUIRED: Check exactly one box.
This change only adds libicu76 as an additional valid dependency option in the .deb package control file. It does not remove existing dependencies and is required for Debian 13 compatibility.
