Adding blocking relationship to BZ 2127507 (the Change tracker)
Comment 2 Antonio Torres 2022-09-20 15:54:00 UTC 
Upstream added PCRE2 support to master branch of FreeRADIUS but decline to backport it to v3 [1]. Debian team reported this as well, and upstream developers recommended to just build without PCRE [2]. Let's do the same in Fedora and just remove the dependency.
