PRECAUTION
pcre means Perl Compatible Regular Expressions. Please note that some
packages in 'base' and 'opt' will depend on libpcre after recompiling.
Example: base/grep
Assuming that you've compiled a newer version of grep.
`./configure` said:
..
checking for pcre_exec in -lpcre... yes
..
After `pkgrm libpcre` grep will say:
$ grep string infile
grep: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.0: cannot open _
shared object file: No such file or directory
'grep' will not work without libpcre, please keep that in mind.
