Dear Hajime Mizuno, or whoever might be thinking about salvaging this package,
The best solution appears to be encouraging and supporting this friendly fork: https://github.com/ggreer/the_silver_searcher/issues/1515 The next best solution appears to be switching to a fork that fixed this pcre3 issue (and added the new PCRE2 support); however, it's also currently unmaintained. Please see the above link for what I believe is the locus of future community support for The Silver Searcher. Sincerely, Nicholas https://wiki.debian.org/PackageSalvaging
