I've seen the wget debian change, but just switching builddeps from pcre3-dev to pcre2-dev and rebuilding isn't enough. The package ends up not finding pcre and doesn't enable it: checking for PCRE... no checking pcre.h usability... no checking pcre.h presence... no checking for pcre.h... no ... Libs: -luuid -lidn2 -lnettle -lgnutls -lz -lpsl
So while the package builds, it's not using pcre. I tried to switch apache, and while I could make it find pcre2-config and use it, pcre2 has different libraries than pcre3: pcre3-config --libs: -lpcre pcre2-config --libs: no such parameter In pcre2, we have --libs8, --libs-posix, --libs32 and --libs16, but no --libs. Is this a bug in pcre2-config? Any quick tips about this before I dig in further? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to grep in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1792544 Title: demotion of pcre3 in favor of pcre2 Status in aide package in Ubuntu: New Status in apache2 package in Ubuntu: New Status in apr-util package in Ubuntu: New Status in clamav package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in exim4 package in Ubuntu: New Status in freeradius package in Ubuntu: New Status in git package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in glib2.0 package in Ubuntu: New Status in grep package in Ubuntu: New Status in haproxy package in Ubuntu: New Status in libpam-mount package in Ubuntu: New Status in libselinux package in Ubuntu: New Status in nginx package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in nmap package in Ubuntu: New Status in pcre3 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in php7.2 package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in postfix package in Ubuntu: New Status in python-pyscss package in Ubuntu: New Status in quagga package in Ubuntu: New Status in rasqal package in Ubuntu: New Status in slang2 package in Ubuntu: New Status in sssd package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in wget package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in zsh package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: demotion of pcre3 in favor of pcre2.
