Well the direct route would be to go to the PCRE website and download the package you want.http://www.pcre.org/Or download from the SVN repo:$ svn co svn://vcs.exim.org/pcre/code/trunk pcreSince you're on SuSE you can probably go poking through the SuSE Build Service and get whatever version you need, or submit a build yourself. I found the PCRE pcre.spec file for 8.33.https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/openSUSE:Factory/pcre/pcre.specNotice the links to things at the top of that URL. If you go poking around, say the overview page, from here are links to already built versions of PCRE. For example, under standard are RPMs for PCRE 8.33.https://build.opensuse.org/package/binaries/openSUSE:Factory/pcre?repository=standard
