Package l3regex.sty does not exist enymore

[whnr]

The package l3regex.sty does not exist anymore.
Texlive version in Archlinux: 2018.50036-1 or TeX 3.14159265 (TeX Live 2018/Arch Linux) kpathsea version 6.3.0

Quick fix, to get my CV to compile: Comment out the following line:

moderncv/moderncv.cls

Line 194 in 2033517

\RequirePackage{l3regex}

Apparently it was integrated into some higher package.

I still do have the same issue. Commenting out "RequirePackage{l3regex} does not solve the issue. Neither does replacing the line with "RequirePackage{expl3}.

Still getting this error, any news?

It works fine for me after commenting out "RequirePackage{l3regex}. It might be related to the update I've done this morning.

In the moderncv.cls file:
change (close to line 193):
\RequirePackage{l3regex}

to:

\usepackage{expl3}
\expandafter\def\csname [email protected]\endcsname{}
\RequirePackage{l3regex}```

The trailing ``` in the above comment are not necessary, they even broke my compilation.

I'm pretty sure that's a markdown typo here in the comment.
