            Bug ID: 219732
           Summary: textproc/hs-pandoc: Update to latest release
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: haskell@FreeBSD.org

Pandoc is under constant development, yet the version of Pandoc currently in
the ports tree is nearly two years old and is quite a few releases (3 major=
, 16
minor) behind the current stable release. Hundreds of tweaks, fixes and
features have been added in the meantime. I'd like to request that
textproc/hs-pandoc be updated to the latest release (1.19.2.1).

As a side note, the last update to the textproc/hs-pandoc port added the
optional dependency of TeXLive packages for the generation of PDFs. Newer
releases of Pandoc are also able to use converters/wkhtmltopdf to generate =
PDFs
from HTML5 and CSS3, so perhaps another option could be added to the `make
config` menu to allow users to select either one of these dependencies, or
possibly both if so desired.
