Hi Richard,

The Fedora 39 System Wide changes are scheduled for Jun 2023, so that would
be the deadline for this.

However, after feedback, I've decided to create a pcre deprecation change
at first so it's broken into more pieces and it's better documented.
When it's ready, I'll paste the link for the new pcre deprecation change.
You can ignore the retirement change for now, because that one will be
proposed after the package is deprecated.

Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience.
Lukas
