Dear Emacsen Maintainers, It looks like a few Emacsen packages are marked as testing auto-removal due to bug#999962[1]. It looks like this pcre to pcre2 migration is non-trivial, and the upstream of silversearcher-ag[2] seems to be silent since Dec. 2020. The list of affected packages are in [3]. As most of them have silversearcher-ag as an optional dependency, should it be considered to drop silversearcher-ag support for now and wait for the fixes or alternatives to be available before re-enabling the support?
