Using this package will waste instead of save disk space if:

  • You're a haskell developer and need the shared libraries/compilers/etc. anyway.
  • You have >10 other statically-linked haskell packages around the same size as Pandoc (in which case you'll get a saving from making them all dynamically linked).

Neither of these scenarios is particularly likely.

A quick question. Why is the .deb used when there is also a .tar.xz binary available?

cdkitching commented on 2017-10-07 16:16 (UTC)

Good point. I'll add those as optdepends to be in-line with `pandoc`, too, then.

IMO, `pandoc` and `pandoc-bin` should correspond to `pandoc-citeproc` and `pandoc-citeproc-bin`. And under the same convention, I pushed `pandoc-crossref-bin` as a correspondence to `pandoc-crossref`.

cdkitching commented on 2017-10-07 14:19 (UTC)

Thanks! We should perhaps merge them together, since that'd yield a faster installation.

I just pushed pandoc-citeprop-bin which is supposed to correspond to this package. Hope it helps :)

What about the extremely amount of pandoc filters? Are those available in AUR too? They are too much to check them, maybe there's a way to automatize it by using databases like repology.org

There are a newer version... https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/archive/1.19.2.4.tar.gz But not new binary :( Also. Does this version include the zillion of patches? I was writing them, but a system failure made me lost them all :(

just my 2 cents: a while ago i was maintaining pandoc-static which built a static pandoc from source and avoided the haskell dependencies. i dropped it when an arch dev included pandoc in [community] and agreed to build pandoc statically too. i've no idea why this package went back to depend on haskell, and the arch dev has been unresponsive to my email. fwiw the pandoc-static pkgbuild is here: https://git.parabola.nu/abslibre.git/tree/pcr/pandoc-static

>> it appears that pandoc-citeproc is also provided by the debian package, so I guess it might be easier to add a package_pandoc-citeproc() to your PKGBUILD. > Looks like you're right, joelongjimian. Let's do that. Could you do it, please?

Two remarks: - why the explicit version number in provides() array? - cmark should be added as a dependency: pandoc from official repos depends on haskell-cmark which itself depends on cmark[1] (and official pandoc used to depend directly on it too before the switch to dynamic linking), and Hackage page also refers cmark as a dep [2].
