    Where you got `couchdb` package? Please add output of `apt-cache policy couchdb` to the question. – N0rbert Aug 19 '18 at 18:08

libicu55 was supported until Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial, but it is compatible with 18.04 Bionic as well.

Add the following repository and install the package

sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security main"
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libicu55

Also you can install the .deb package manually:

sudo wget http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/i/icu/libicu55_55.1-7ubuntu0.5_amd64.deb -P /tmp/
sudo dpkg -i /tmp/libicu55_55.1-7ubuntu0.5_amd64.deb
