@Maintainer:

According to some research, Manjaro/Arch doesn't come with
libpcre.so.3. The script localdeps.linux.sh included in the sfont~ 
sources specifically excludes '*/libpcre.so.*' (line 18), so that no
local copy of the library is distributed. Maybe this pattern should be
removed from 'exclude_paths', so that a local copy of libprce.so.* 
gets shipped with [sfont~].

@Reporter:

Maybe open an issue here:
