Don't distribute libpcre with tarball... #14

Closed jkbzh closed 6 years ago

jkbzh commented 21 years ago

This is not the "true way" when dealing with source code from other projects, unless you really want to maintain yet another set of library code. I would like to see an option in the configure script to use our currently installed libpcre software. A note of this requirement/dependency should be made in the documentation for hypermail.

@jkbzh same goes for closing this one that's 13 years old.

Fixed (among other things) in the branch I'm currently testing before merging into master. If configure detects a recent system libpcre and corresponding dev headers, it will ignore (i.e. won't compile) its bundled one.
