[package request] pandoc #12485

Open Freed-Wu opened 2 years ago

Freed-Wu commented 2 years ago

Can package https://github.com/jgm/pandoc to Mingw? Some softwares of Mingw need pandoc to convert markdown to man and because pandoc is unavailable in Mingw, them have to miss their man.

Thanks!

I was just asking about this. I guess it depends on the Glasgow Haskell Compiler, which apparently is complicated to port to MinGW-w64. I was referred to #6600.

ghc worked at a time but since this is a rolling release model compiler suite it somehow broke along the way :(

It would be super useful for me to have Pandoc in MSYS2.

LeenHawk commented 1 year ago

Kreijstal commented 1 year ago

why is there no ghc package on mingw?

Biswa96 commented 1 year ago

ghc was disabled in this commit https://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages/commit/8b95a108f8ab8bae5c615a0e0f7af53af272e346 because it can not be built or broken.
