Since, archive reorg both are available in Ubuntu during build, and the
first one that is available is picked, as in currently Ubuntu would
prefer reverse ordering of these "libpcre3-dev | libpcre2-dev".

However, none of this matters much long term. In Ubuntu we simply do not
want to ship both pcre libraries in main. Have all of the below
transitioned to the new pcre?

$ reverse-depends -b -c main src:pcre3

* zsh                           (for libpcre3-dev)

If yes, we can promote pcre2 to main; do transition; and demote pcre3 to
universe.
