I recently installed the 0.13 git version of ELinks to resolve an unrelated issue and since lenny does not feature libtre5, the ./configure step gave me a warning and I was able to compile ELinks. The resulting ELinks version does not have the regex search capability on the search dialog, which is not a major problem where I'm concerned since in some 4-5 years of daily utilization of ELinks, I have never needed it. I don't see why a dependency that would deprive you of an obscure optional feature such as this, which by the way is correctly handled by the stock ELinks install, would prevent installation of the debian package. As to the reason why ELinks of late requires libtre5, I suspect it has something to do with unicode support, which has beeen vastly improved in recent versions. I am not going to investigate this, but the output of 'git log' against my git clone strongly suggests this.
