Before you flag this package outdated, read this: **An VCS package is never outdated!!** (unless it won't build or have other issues)

From https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD#pkgver:
> makepkg can automatically update this variable by defining a pkgver() function in the PKGBUILD.

It means that this package will try to automatically update itself to the latest version every time you build it.

Looks like dependency pcre is now pcre2, namcap confirms this after build. Looks like configure option --without-included-regex was removed in 3.7 per note in referenced PKGBUILD on upstream release package.

Thanks, fixed.
