Thanks to Kyotaro Horiguchi review we found out that there're interesting cases due to the order of some ICU checks:

1. ICU locale vs supported encoding:

1.1.

If I executed initdb as follows, I would be told to specify

However, when I reran the command, it complains about incompatible
encoding this time.  I think it's more user-friendly to check for the
encoding compatibility before the check for missing --icu-locale
option.

This a valid point, but it would require quite a bit of work to move all those checks around and re-verify the result, so I don't want to do it in PG15.

1.2. (ok?)

$ initdb --encoding sql-ascii --icu-locale en-US hoge
initdb: error: --icu-locale cannot be specified unless locale provider "icu" is chosen

$ initdb --encoding sql-ascii --icu-locale en-US --locale-provider icu hoge
...
initdb: error: encoding mismatch
initdb: detail: The encoding you selected (SQL_ASCII) is not supported with the ICU provider. initdb: hint: Rerun initdb and either do not specify an encoding explicitly, or choose a matching combination.

$ createdb --encoding sql-ascii --icu-locale en-US hoge
createdb: error: database creation failed: ERROR:  ICU locale cannot be specified unless locale provider is ICU $ createdb --encoding sql-ascii --icu-locale en-US --locale-provider icu hoge createdb: error: database creation failed: ERROR:  encoding "SQL_ASCII" is not supported with ICU provider

I don't see a problem here.

2. For builds without ICU:

2.1.

$ initdb --locale-provider icu hoge
...
initdb: error: ICU locale must be specified

$ initdb --locale-provider icu --icu-locale en-US hoge
...
initdb: error: ICU is not supported in this build

$ createdb --locale-provider icu hoge
createdb: error: database creation failed: ERROR:  ICU locale must be specified

$ createdb --locale-provider icu --icu-locale en-US hoge
createdb: error: database creation failed: ERROR:  ICU is not supported in this build

IMO, it would be more user-friendly to inform an unsupported build in the first runs too..

Again, this would require reorganizing a bunch of code to get some cosmetic benefit, which isn't a good idea now for PG15.

2.2. (ok?)
2.3.

same here

3.

The locale provider is ICU, but it has not yet been set from the template database:

$ initdb --locale-provider icu --icu-locale en-US -D data &&
pg_ctl -D data -l logfile start &&
createdb --icu-locale ru-RU --template template0 mydb
...
createdb: error: database creation failed: ERROR:  ICU locale cannot be
specified unless locale provider is ICU

Please see attached patch for a fix.  Does that work for you?

Subject: [PATCH] Improve ICU option handling in CREATE DATABASE

We check that the ICU locale is only specified if the ICU locale
provider is selected.  But we did that too early.  We need to wait
until we load the settings of the template database, since that could
also set what the locale provider is.
