Subject: pcre2?
Date: Wed, 11 May 2016 16:37:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <lkn6jbdet5ucgfbiroj15o55489oj3on4k@4ax.com> (raw)

fish 2.3 is currently bundling and building its own copy of libpcre2.
There's an issue[1] open to unbundle it and use distributions' own
versions, but libpcre2 hasn't been packaged for Cygwin yet.

Yaakov, are you interested in packaging and maintaining pcre2?  It builds
fine OOTB for me, and it looks as though your cygport file for pcre could
be used with only minor changes.

Since you already maintain pcre, OTBE I think it would be better for you to
own pcre2 too.  But if you're not interested in doing that, I'll take it
on.

Thanks,
Andrew
