libpcre16-3: Old Perl 5 Compatible Regular Expression Library - 16 bit runtime files

 This is a library of functions to support regular expressions whose syntax
 and semantics are as close as possible to those of the Perl 5 language.
 .
 This package contains the 16 bit runtime library.

libpcre3: Old Perl 5 Compatible Regular Expression Library - runtime files

 This is a library of functions to support regular expressions whose syntax
 and semantics are as close as possible to those of the Perl 5 language.
 .
 New packages should use the newer pcre2 packages, and existing
 packages should migrate to pcre2.
 .
 This package contains the runtime libraries.

libpcre3-dev: Old Perl 5 Compatible Regular Expression Library - development files

 This is a library of functions to support regular expressions whose syntax
 and semantics are as close as possible to those of the Perl 5 language.
 .
 New packages should use the newer pcre2 packages, and existing
 packages should migrate to pcre2.

 and semantics are as close as possible to those of the Perl 5 language.
 .
 This package contains the runtime libraries for the Debian Installer (udeb).

libpcre32-3: Old Perl 5 Compatible Regular Expression Library - 32 bit runtime files

 This is a library of functions to support regular expressions whose syntax
 and semantics are as close as possible to those of the Perl 5 language.

libpcrecpp0v5: Old Perl 5 Compatible Regular Expression Library - C++ runtime files

 This is a C++ library of functions to support regular expressions whose syntax
 and semantics are as close as possible to those of the Perl 5 language.
 .
 This package contains the C++ runtime library.

pcregrep: grep utility that uses perl 5 compatible regexes.

 Perl-style regexps have many useful features that the standard POSIX ones
 don't; this is basically the same as grep but with the different
 regexp syntax.
 .
 The other reason for the existence of pcregrep is that its source code is an
 example of programming with libpcre.
