In principle this should be a trivial fix. In practice it is a bit more complicated. I have collected some information and added it to a mantis issue at http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=7785.
I suspect that the error that the Debian maintainers are encountering reflects a linker path conflict between the OS-supplied PCRE library versus the local Squeak VM code in platforms/Cross/plugins/RePlugin.
Presumably we should use the OS-supplied library where possible, but I don't know if PCRE is readily available on non-Linux platforms, and I'm having problems getting the linker to work when I compile in 32-bit mode on my computer, and the plugin still has issues compiling in 64-bit mode, so I won't attempt a patch for RePlugin until this is sorted out.
More to follow, meanwhile anyone interested please read the mantis notes at http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=7785, guidance or advice welcome.
