Description:

After updating pcre to version 8.30-1, I started seeing some applications crashing with the following error:

error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Looking at the pcre package changes, the last update to version 8.30-1 removed the code to create the symbolic link:

http://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/commit/trunk?h=packages/pcre&id=fafae4e2a305aa0bc3f5b9953f7a23fb4394e485

Maybe that should or could be reverted?

Additional info:
* package version(s): pcre 8.30-1

Steps to reproduce:

I could find the message above on my /var/log/pacman.log and I also get this message when trying to run other applications (like mysql-gui-tools from AUR).
This task depends upon

you should fully update your system and rebuild unsupported packages against new pcre

Sorry, didn't know about that. I recompiled them and they seem to work now. Thank you.
