Description
qpdf 6.0.0 is outdated, tools like ocrmypdf recommend to use qpdf 7.0.0.
Upgrading the Portfile is straight forward. (attached) It now additionally requires port:jpeg
Issue #42101 is still present, direct upgrading might fail since the build process tries to link with the old libraries. Deactivation or uninstalling helps as a workaround.
Tested on OSX 10.12.6, clang 9.0.0, Xcode 9.2

According to the ChangeLog and the Release Notes the PCRE dependency was indeed removed in version 7.0.0 (while the new dependency on the JPEG library was added). A short inspection of the sources seconds that. The dependency on port:pcre may thus be dropped.

Skimming the ChangeLog further shows that qpdf was relicensed to the Apache License, Version 2.0 (Apache-2), replacing the previous (said to be similar) Artistic-2.

Thanks!
Do you know if the pcre dependency is still needed? I see no evidence that it is used in the dylib. If it is needed, can pcre2 be used?
