Source: libavif Version: 0.11.1-3 Severity: normal The libavif build attempts to build docs (the man page) using pandoc for each architecture. This is a problem since pandoc is not available on several architectures.
debian/rules for libavif contains doc logic, defining MAN_PAGES_FLAG. Currently it is only switched off if nodoc is used. It would be helpful for the arches which don't have pandoc to switch off the MAN_PAGES_FLAG for these selected architectures, similar to the architecture-specific configuration already used to set SVT_FLAG. The affected architectures are summarised on the build page https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=libavif : hppa hurd-i386 loong64 sparc64 pandoc is only used to generate the man page. I guess it does not significantly differ between architectures. Perhaps a copy of the amd64 man page could be stored in the debian dir and used for these architectures that can't generate their own man page.
