Removing lua support would be most unfortunate! 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 severely
crippled Pandoc.
Understood, but I am not really sure how to move forward, since Pandoc
doesn'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 to
finish 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 Debian
source 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 doing
to dh-cargo currently).
I'm working on this (packaging haskell-pandoc).
And it's been uploaded, headed to NEW.
Regards,
Scott
