We generally don't want to use the internal copy of libraries, and prefer to use the system-provided library when possible, which is what is done here. So there are really two cases: 1 Either the regexp support in RPM is absolutely mandatory for RPM to be useful. If this is the case, then just make the pcre dependency a mandatory one, and always pass --with-pcre=external. 2 Or the regexp support in RPM is really optional, and useful only in certain situations. If this is the case, then what is done today is correct, and you should simply enable the pcre library. Consequently, I've marked your patch as Rejected in our patch tracking system. Do not hesitate to follow up with a different patch if we are in case (1) above. Thanks a lot!

If that's indeed the case, then pcre support is really mandatory for RPM to be useful. Therefore, can you send a patch to make the pcre dependency a mandatory one? Don't forget to add a comment explaining why we're making it mandatory even if RPM makes it an optional dependency.
