Bug#449289: glib: The package doesn't require new pcre

Package: libglib2.0-0
Version: 2.14.1-5
Severity: normal
File: glib

The glib-2.14.1 package doesn't require new enough pcre version.
So when I used apt-get dist-upgrade, it upgraded glib to 2.14 but
didn't upgrade pcre which was 6.7, and that broke regular expressions
in glib. Regular expressions stuff in glib requires pcre of version
7.2 or newer, so the debian package should have an appropriate
dependency.
