Pcre has been deprecated since Fedora 38. Please consider porting to the new pcre2 version. Fedora change that describes the pcre deprecation is located here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PcreDeprecation FESCo approval is located here: https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/2862 If your component has already ported to pcre2 or you don't Require/BuildRequire any pcre subpackage, feel free to close this Bugzilla. This Bugzilla was created automatically and some issues might have occurred along the way. Reproducible: Always
Looking at https://tiny.distro.builders/view-rpm--view-eln--pcre-devel.html and https://tiny.distro.builders/view-rpm--view-eln--pcre.html and comparing what's being required - only pcre-devel from webkitgtk (https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/webkitgtk/blob/rawhide/f/webkitgtk.spec#_82), but no runtime requirement, then I would say that the build requirement is some old one and could be dropped. I'm starting the x86_64 scratch build with the BR dropped - https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=101860796 to confirm it.
The build succeeded, so we're able to drop the dependency.
Dropped it with https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/webkitgtk/c/97d8057b53649359832ce20f7d1df6596945240f?branch=rawhide, but I didn't make a new build to not stress the infra too much so it will be fixed with next update.
