    I just finished solving my babl problems, but more stuff shows up in libpcre. First, here are my USE flags. I don't see "utf8" anywhere.

    Calculating dependencies... done!
    [ebuild R ] dev-libs/libpcre-8.45-r1:3::gentoo USE="bzip2 cxx jit readline
    +(split-usr) (unicode) zlib -libedit -pcre16 -pcre32 -static-libs" 0 KiB

    Can someone give me their output from "emerge -pv1 dev-libs/libpcre"

    mc (Midnight Commander) spews out a lot of...

    (mc:5796): GLib-CRITICAL **: 15:19:15.617: PCRE library is compiled without UTF8
    +support

    As pointed in the original thread, the dependency to look at is probably libpcre2 now.

    Could it be bug 883877? [1] Has been fixed in the tree at least for glib
    2.74.3 [2].
