If you need help from upstream in getting things to work, let me know.I agree: Pandoc with its core scripting language disabled is a severelycrippled Pandoc.Understood, but I am not really sure how to move forward, since Pandocdoesn't fully support the latest Stackage LTS. I can help with packaging/upgrade libraries if you can provide the right set of libraries we need.I uploaded the following packages: * haskell-hslua-cli_v1.3.0-1, * haskell-hslua-module-doclayout_v1.1.0-1 * haskell-hslua-module-zip_v1.1.0-1 I believe the next step is to update pandoc to 3.0.1, so we can then package pandoc-lua-engine, pandoc-server and eventually pandoc-cli.Jonas, how can I help move this forward? Pandoc is the last blocker tofinish the Haskell transition.I think this will be the best way forward: Haskell team introduces new source package haskell-pandoc. When available, I can build package pandoc depending on it. I really don't like breaking upstream project pandoc into two Debiansource packages like that, but I don't have the energy at the moment to try fix dh-haskell (which I suspect will be similar work as I am doingto dh-cargo currently).I'm working on this (packaging haskell-pandoc).And it's been uploaded, headed to NEW.
Jonas,haskell-pandoc has been accepted into unstable, so I think you should be able to update src:pandoc to now build from the pandoc-cli hackage package.
This brings up an interesting question, though. The pandoc-cli package versioning does not follow that of the pandoc package, so it's unclear how to best handle that with the existing numbering of src:pandoc and pandoc binary package.
