What OS/version are you running specifically?
In RHEL, you should find the package "pcre2" which provides this; for example,
on recent RHEL8 versions:

pcre2-10.32-3.el8_6.x86_64

(from the "rhel-8-for-x86_64-baseos-rpms" repository)

Ah! That's the explanation. These are RHEL 7 boxes and they don't have that
package in the RHEL 7 repos. Which brings me back around to hunting for the
package...or building it, I suppose.

The "pcre2" package is shipped with RHEL7 too, in many repositories including
"rhel-7-server-rpms".

See for example:
https://access.redhat.com/downloads/content/pcre2/10.23-2.el7/x86_64/fd431d51/package

I eventually figured that out, but am now frustrated that it will. not.
install for some reason. But I'll fix that.
