Description ¶
Yet another deathware.
The only recommended dependency on pcre is from kjs. kjs is removed in kde6.
And just curious, why it's recommended anyway?

Now the only recommended pcre1 dependency is from nmap. We can use a patch from fedora (actually stripped down from the upstream change) to use pcre2 instead: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/nmap/raw/rawhide/f/nmap-pcre2.patch

Replying to Xi Ruoyao:

Please go ahead and do that.

Fixed at r12.1-59-g39eac9218c.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
The upstream claimed "if kjs not built with pcre, khtml may fail to display many websites". But now khtml only used by khelpcenter and maybe we can try building kjs without pcre...
(I'm not a KDE user and I'm not sure how fancy the khelpcenter docs are. Need another editor to test.)
