I have an upstream bug report for tilix in Ubuntu 17.10 where the VTE is complaining about not supporting PCRE2 despite VTE reporting that it is version 0.48.2 which should support it.

https://github.com/gnunn1/tilix/issues/916

Is this caused by Ubuntu going with the #3 option and reverting the PCRE2 commits in VTE? If so this is going to cause issues with any VTE based terminal emulator that is relying on checking the version number to determine available VTE functionality.

Any plans on correcting this with a hot fix?
