Here's the PCRE2 removal patch updated to 0.50.2 / current vte-0-52. Please review, test if works correctly, and if does then please apply and upgrade to vte-0.50.x and gnome-terminal-3.26.x.
The only nontrivially conflicting upstream patch was https://git.gnome.org/browse/vte/commit/?id=91e9c838 "widget: Provide a way to copy the selection to clipboard as HTML". The easy way to do the merging was to first revert this on top of 0.50.2, then apply Ubuntu's "revert-pcre2" patch belonging to 0.48, and then re-apply HTML copy- paste, and finally do some one-off fixes (like the complete removal of the "word" variable which was accidentally still present in upstream 0.48 and removed in upstream 0.50, and converting "row_text" from gchar* to GString*). I've tested compiling "normally" (it still links against pcre2 - you're probably not interested in it), as well as --without-pcre2 which compiles and works fine too, and I've verified with ldd that pcre2 is indeed not linked. I've also verified that the package works together with Artful's gnome- terminal{,-data} 3.24.2 packages (and correctly underlines URLs on hover), plus gnome-terminal 3-26 compiles and runs fine against it, and its regex unittests also pass. I've compiled everything manually though, not using Ubuntu's build system. This shouldn't make a difference. ** Patch added: "vte 0.50.2 revert pcre2" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vte2.91/+bug/1721412/+attachment/5040184/+files/vte-lp1721412-0.50.2-revert-pcre2.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1721412 Title: Update gnome-terminal to 3.26.1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-terminal/+bug/1721412/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
