I want libicu-dev package for a Wikitech project. It creates a bridge between IRC and Telegram, and the application depends on that package.
I also need to run npm install -g teleirc which needs a sudo as well to make it work.

@Acagastya where are you trying to do this work? Are you building a tool on Toolforge as we discussed in T164910: Request creation of <enwnbot> labs project (to bridge IRC channels and Telegram groups)? I know that @Amire80 has built a nodejs bot that talks to telegram and translatewiki. He actually used the hints that I gave in T164910#3271720 while working on T159368: update node.js on tools.telegrambot at the recent Vienna hackathon to migrate his bot into our Kubernetes environment. Maybe he can point us to some artifacts of his work that can be used to help get you started in the right direction.
To your original question, you will not be able to use npm -g install ... to make global installations in Tool Labs. Instead you can leave off the -g flag to install locally in a node_modules directory somewhere inside your tool's $HOME directory.
I thought we had already installed libicu-dev in all of the Kubernetes containers, but it turns out that we only added it to the Python and Python2 images.

libicu and it's dev dependencies are now available in our nodejs Kubernetes containers:

Yep, I am indeed developing a Telegram bot that makes edits on MediaWiki. The code is at https://github.com/amire80/mediawiki-telegram-bot/ and it's in pretty active development now. I'll be happy to collaborate.
