Bug#845123: please upload pandoc 1.18 to debian unstable and testing at the earliest , before debian stretch is frozen.

2016-11-20 Thread Zaxebo Yaxebo
Package: pandoc
Version: 1.17.2
Severity: wishlist

Dear concerned,
   pandoc 1.18 has been released on 27 Oct 2016 with very useful
improvements. Reference http://pandoc.org/releases.html

 debian contains the pandoc version 1.17.2 (reference
https://packages.debian.org/unstable/pandoc  ), which was released on 17
July 2016

  Now, as per https://wiki.debian.org/DebianStretch , the next debian
stable (debian stretch final) will have following schedule
   -  2016-11-05: Transition freeze (general freeze of transitions)
   - 2017-01-05: "Soft" freeze (no new packages, no re-entry, normal
migrations)


==>> My Request: Hence, I humbly request you to kindly urgently upload the
version 1.18 of pandoc at the earliest to "Debian unstable and testing", so
that it can be included for Debian stretch stable. So that those of us, who
will stay in debian stable, will get atleast version 1.18 till next few
years, and not the older version.


Postscript:
i had informed earlier this on email to
pkg-haskell-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org, and as sean whitton had
said that , "if this does not happen within one month , then check back."

Hence, i am humbly just formally raising it as 'bug report' with severity
'wishlist' almost after a month, 'as per suggestion of Jonas Smedegaard'
too to better track this.

regards,
Zax
