Package: libpcre3-dev
Version: 1:8.30-5

Building a program using libpcre3 produces a binary dependency on
libpcre3 (>= 8.10). This is wrong, since the function pcre_free_study()
is not available e.g. in libpcre3 8.12 (in Ubuntu precise).

PCREAPI(3) says:

  When you are finished with a pattern, you can free the memory used for
  the study data by calling pcre_free_study(). This function was added
  to the API for release 8.20.

So I think the dependency should be (>= 8.20).

Kind regards,

Martin
