pandoc [Solved]
Would be grateful for a pandoc update. Latest version is pandoc 1.17.1 (4 Jun 2016). Think that our repo version is several years earlier. (Hoping to use this in manual translations)

Re: pandoc
Working on it, but it will take a bit. There are around 17 packages that will need to be backported in order for it to even build. I hope you are really going to use it because that is alot for one package.

Gordon, can you confirm that it is actually worth his time?I hope you are really going to use it

Re: pandoc
If it will help the team with documentation, I have no problem packaging it. I just didn't want to spend the hours packaging it and it turns out it wasn't really that useful, that's all.
Re: pandoc
It's worth a check on our part, and I think you guys need to be asking that question...

Re: pandoc
Sorry, I'm giving up this one. Even the backports need more backports or changes made to the versions in the debian/control files. Maybe Tim, Mike or Stevo will know better how to port it with the least amount of effort.
Re: pandoc
Thanks for looking at it, we completely understand.

Re: pandoc
The Pandoc home page has a 64-bit deb of the latest 1.17.1 version that is installable on MX 15, and the executable runs in the terminal on my system, so it seems there's some way to build it on our present Haskell. But if they've already provided it, I'm a bit reluctant to try and figure out that rat's nest of build-dependencies.
Re: pandoc
Understood, and it makes sense to me.

Re: pandoc
Everybody is happy. Love it when that happens.
Yes, even I am dishonest. Not in many ways, but in some. Forty-one, I think it is.
