Pcre2

[Fabrizio]

Hi, I have installed pcre2 but I have this error: "/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lpcre2". Thanks.

What is the OS ?
Does you check the full names and path of libraries installed ?

Regards, Alexander.

I have xubuntu 16.04 and libpcre2 present. Maybe the problem it's the file libpcre2.pc not present? Sorry for my English.

Really curious that libpcre2 is present.
Try to install libpcre3

sudo apt-get install libpcre3

If it's not ok, try to uninstall libpcre2, and then install libpcre3

sudo apt-get remove libpcre2;sudo apt-get install libpcre3

but pay attention to the packages which may be uninstalled with it ...
(if there is packages which depends of libpcre2)
