Note also that these packages will increase in size as unicode standard
evolves. libidn due to IDNA2003 was tied to a specific old standard
while libunistring gets updated to the latest one thus includes much
more data than the previous ones.

I do not know whether the glibc switch from libidn to libidn2 would
provide some benefit in that aspect.
