You can install libpcre or libpcre0 using pkgman. One of them could help.

Since Paladin for gcc2 was behind the versions for 64bit and gcc5, I built and updated it in HaikuDepot. Maybe the old package was incorrectly built? In any case, this would be a haikuports issue. Closing, but thanks for the heads-up!

I think the package that is attached to this ticket is an old BeOS package, not an HPKG.

I got that package off of DarkWyrm's BeEmulated website a few years ago IIRC. That's the version of Paladin I run on Haiku A4 and always re-install when I update my Haiku Nightly instance (once a month).
Regarding the missing library... I have not had that issue with past Haiku nightly builds and wondered if that library was removed from the base installation of Haiku?

I've deleted the .pkg, as I Haiku reports it to be an invalid package file. Can you upload it again zipped first? Otherwise, a link would work fine in this case, too.

As Pulkomandy said you probably need to pkgman install libpcre0. Maybe it was included in Haiku A4 by default but not anymore.

diver, I install the latest Haiku nightly at the beginning of each month and been doing so for years and have not ever run into this issue ever until this past weekend.
The important information is that it obviously tries to link against libpcre.so. This library is not part of the base installation, and 3rd party applications must not assume otherwise.
Of course, if the software contains the library, that would hint to some other problem. I can't check right now, so I'm keeping the ticket open for now.
