In Bug #1091995, the Technical Committe was asked to rule on an issue
that could, under certain circumstances, result in failure of the

Hi,

We may yet see 10.36 out in time for it to get into bullseye (upstream
have an RC), but I wanted 10.35 in in case that doesn't work out.

Hi,
PCRE has been in Debian for some time; the current packages correspond
to upstream 8.35 (with a pile of backported security fixes, which I hope
will end up as an 8.38 release some time soon). These packages are
called pcre3 (and libpcre3 ships libpcre.so.3).
Upstream has a new PCRE library, w
