Summary 0005169: glib2 depends on pcre for building
Description There is a very common ./configure error that indicates a failure of glib2, when it is actually installed, with the -dev.

The logfile shows the real error is:
Package 'libpcre', required by 'GLib', not found

So basically, I think CSWlibglib2-dev should have a dependency on CSWlibpcre-dev to make sure it's usable.
Additional Information Technically not a huge deal, but highly frustrating, particularly for newcomers.

Sounds reasonable. Do you want me to commit and rebuild packages?
