  • Have you tried using `yum` yet? – Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams Jun 08 '16 at 05:17
  • i tried using yum install libaio but it doesn't fulfill the dependency. i tried installing the pcre pcre-8.37-1.fc22.x86_64.rpm and instlling it but it doesn;t work as well. – Prince Jun 08 '16 at 05:33
  • Did you get past this? – Andy Hayden Oct 25 '16 at 21:45
  • After some days of searching and try many thigs. my attempt was to copy the library `libpcre.so.1` from an distribution that have it and copy into amazonlinux:1 (who was the AMI that I was using) and I still have the error. I desist the library instalation. – Franco Gil Jun 15 '23 at 00:26
  • For my specific case (I was building a package for amazonlinux:1), I go to my building scripts and remove the packages that requires that library, in order to generate my `.rpm` package without the need of the library. Wasn't great, I have to admit but it is what it is. Also take in mind that `amazonlinux:1` it is close to be down, so try to go into a more recent AMI or distribution. – Franco Gil Jun 15 '23 at 00:29

This worked for me:

yum install pcre2-devel.x86_64
