quagga was another false Build-Depends so I filed a Debian bug
requesting they drop the pcre3 Build-Depends.

** Changed in: quagga (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Invalid

** Description changed:

+ https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-
+ archive/transitions/html/pcre2-main.html
+ 
  demotion of pcre3 in favor of pcre2. These packages need analysis what
  needs to be done for the demotion of pcre3:
  
  Packages which are ready to build with pcre2 should be marked as
  'Triaged', packages which are not ready should be marked as
  'Incomplete'.
  
- aide
- apache2

- php7.2
- postfix
- python-pyscss
- quagga
- rasqal
- slang2
- sssd
- wget
- zsh

  ------

- For clarification: pcre2 is actually newer than pcre3.  pcre3 is just
- poorly named (according to jbicha).
