That's weird, "pcre" is definitely specified as a rudder-agent dependency, as shown here: https://github.com/Normation/rudder-packages/blob/master/rudder-agent/SPECS/rudder-agent.spec#L76.

Following our discussion on IRC, "rpm -qaR rudder-agent" shows that 'pcre' is indeed listed as a required package.

I'm guessing that the package manager screwed up somehow - did you see any error messages when installing rudder-agent or pcre?

Sorry but after some investigation, i can see that:
  • pcre is indeed required by rudder-agent
  • trying to remove pcre on a Centos 6 64 bits machine threatens to screw my system so bad I think it is really an important part of it already
  • a new install on a test machine successfully finishes.

I think that your netinstall misses some components somehow... try to "yum clean all" before doing anything else !

Please, open a new issue if you notice this issue again !
