Hi Yes. This also won't solve the problem. The problem is that Oniguruma is currently not maintained, not that it's unavailable. Bundling the library inside PHP does not solve that maintenance problem. How many times have we unbundled extensions from PHP because they were unmaintained? Kind regards Niels
