Packages marked as testing auto-removel due to bug#999962



Dear Emacsen Maintainers,

It looks like a few Emacsen packages are marked as testing auto-removal
due to bug#999962[1].  It looks like this pcre to pcre2 migration is
non-trivial, and the upstream of silversearcher-ag[2] seems to be silent
since Dec. 2020.  The list of affected packages are in [3].  As most of
them have silversearcher-ag as an optional dependency, should it be
considered to drop silversearcher-ag support for now and wait for the
fixes or alternatives to be available before re-enabling the support?
