Has this change actually been committed? It looks like GLib's internal copy of PCRE was removed in

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/merge_requests/2144

but meson.build still requires an external libpcre in GLib's main branch.

As MR 1451 points out, PCRE1 is in maintenance mode so it might make sense to migrate to PCRE2.

I guess deprecated is not the same as removed.
Is there a plan to migrate in the future?
