Subject: [cocci] Pre-compiled spatch links against EOL PCRE version
Date: Mon, 15 Dec 2025 15:43:02 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87v7i7g615.fsf@mmap.at> (raw)
Hello everyone,
The pre-compiled binary provided on the Download page [1] links against
libpcre.so.3. This library is unmaintained by upstream [2] and not
available on recent distributions, including Debian 13 [3], RHEL 10 and
Arch Linux.
I have been using spatch linked against PCRE2 (/usr/lib/libpcre.so.1)
extensively for days without any issues on Arch Linux.

[2] https://www.pcre.org/ (See Versions)

Take care,
Manuel
