Package: libpcre3
Version: 6.4-1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system
libpcre3 install its libraries in /usr/lib:
/usr/lib/libpcre.so.3.12.0
/usr/lib/libpcrecpp.so.0.0.0
/usr/lib/libpcreposix.so.3.12.0
However, crucial system binaries needed at boot time depend on it, programs
such as grep which must be working before /usr is mounted:
$ ldd /bin/grep
libpcre.so.3 => /usr/lib/libpcre.so.3 (0x0ffb4000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x0fe53000)
/lib/ld.so.1 (0x30000000)
The result is a complete inability of the system to successfully boot
multi-user.
These binaries did not used to be linked against libpcre3, and I don't
know why they are now.
