You seem to have pasted a link to the TPA GitLab wiki here... Did you
mean to paste some other bug report or link there?
I think I'm okay with the package being removed from bookworm if we
can't find a quick fix here. The release date is just too close. We can
always fix this in a point release or get a backport going.
Interestingly, it's not marked as autoremoval here though:
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/markdown-toc-el
Alternatively, I wonder if there's a way to make a simpler module that
would defer the TOC generation to an external command...
Is there something out there that takes a markdown doc as input and
outputs a TOC?
Cheers,
a.
