This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 38 development cycle. Changing version to 38.
Hi, do you have any update on this?
According to the linked gitlab issue, clisp upstream is hoping someone will volunteer to write a pcre2 module. So far, that someone has not appeared. Clisp can be built without pcre support. However, I do not know if that will break any of the Fedora consumers of clisp (maxima and texlive-xindy).
Thank you for the response, Could you please create bugzillas for those two dependencies to determine if they will be affected? Removing 'pcre' dependency is important for the ELN content resolver, as 'pcre' is listed as unwanted (the plan is to remove it before the RHEL-10 fork)

I verified that none of the Fedora users of clisp need the pcre module, so I have disabled that module and rebuilt clisp.
