[Pkg-squeak-devel] Bug#710375: squeak-vm: uses removed pcre_info

[Julian Taylor]

Package: squeak-vm
Version: 1:4.10.2.2614-1
Severity: important


squeak-vm uses the system pcre library which does not provide the
prce_info anymore:
       int pcre_fullinfo(const pcre *code, const pcre_extra *extra,
            int what, void *where);

       The  pcre_fullinfo() function returns information about a
compiled pat-
       tern. It replaces the pcre_info() function, which was removed
from  the
       library at version 8.30, after more than 10 years of obsolescence.

it is used in:
unix/src/vm/intplugins/RePlugin/RePlugin.c:354
interpreterProxy->pushInteger(pcre_info((pcre *)pcrePtr, NULL, NULL));
