zsh builds without libpcre3-dev installed. Please consider dropping the dependency until the next version is released.

It's still — as the name says — Perl Compatible Regular Expressions. As far as I understood it, it's mainly the API to access the library which changed.

Control: tags -1 upstream Good morning Matthew, Matthew Vernon wrote on Thu, Nov 18, 2021 at 11:49:09 +: > The newer PCRE2 library was first released in 2015, and has been in > Debian since stretch. Upstream's documentation for PCRE2 is available > here: https://pcre.org/current/doc/html/ Is there a pcre1→pcre2 upgrade guide for library consumers? I guess there's more to the upgrade than s/pcre_foo/pcre2_foo/g in our code, or they wouldn't have bumped the major version number. Is there a summary of the regex syntax differences between pcre1 and pcre2? I couldn't find either of these anywhere. Cheers, Daniel
