This is not right. According to the docstring:

    org-icalendar-use-deadline is a customizable variable defined in
    ox-icalendar.el.

    Value
    (event-if-not-todo todo-due)

    Documentation
    Contexts where iCalendar export should use a deadline time stamp.
    This is a list with possibly several symbols in it.  Valid symbols are:
    event-if-todo
      Deadlines in TODO entries become calendar events.
    event-if-todo-not-done
      Deadlines in TODO entries with not-DONE state become events.
    event-if-not-todo
      Deadlines in non-TODO entries become calendar events.
    todo-due
      Use deadlines in TODO entries as due-dates.

t is simply not a valid value.

This looks like installation problem.
