Syntax error, it should be:
git clone https://github.com/unicode-org/icu.git
`runConfigureICU Linux --enable-static --disable-shared`
* **Out-of-source build:** It is usually desirable to keep the ICU source file tree clean and have build output files written to a different location. This is called an "out-of-source build". Simply invoke the configure script from the target location:
```
- ~/icu$ git clone export https://github.com/unicode-org/icu.git
+ ~/icu$ git clone https://github.com/unicode-org/icu.git
~/icu$ mkdir icu4c-build
~/icu$ cd icu4c-build
~/icu/icu4c-build$ ../icu/icu4c/source/runConfigureICU Linux
