Eterm intall problem - libpcre.so.0 missing

I installed Eterm using 'pacman -S eterm'.  When attempting to run it or use Esetroot to set background in fluxbox, I get the following error:

$ Eterm
Eterm: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Can anyone point me in the right direction in solving this?

If you don't then you need to report a missed dependency in Eterm

No, I don't have pcre installed. 

Reported it as a missed dependency for eterm:

Thanks.

It's Eterm (with an uppercase E).

Titus, you can use pacman -Ql pkgname to list the files included in the pkg - this can help you spot binary names:

pacman -Ql eterm | grep bin
