Description Petr Pisar 2021-03-15 12:08:57 UTC
This is a kindly hint that nginx-1:1.18.0-5.fc35 still uses PCRE library which has been superseded with PCRE2 project by PCRE upstream in 2015. PCRE upstream considers PCRE obsolete now and does not devote any resources to PCRE except of critical bugs. Please consider porting nginx from PCRE to PCRE2.

Comment 6 Felix Kaechele 2021-04-21 15:07:53 UTC
Sorry, I was prematurely assuming pcre2 was a drop in replacement for nginx.

Upstream is reluctant to move to pcre2: http://mailman.nginx.org/pipermail/nginx-devel/2019-January/011821.html
