Hi! pmix currently has pandoc in Build-Depends which causes the package to be BD-Uninstallable on a number of architectures. The reason for this is that pandoc requires a very long list of Haskell dependencies before it can be built which means that a package that Build-Depends on pandoc will end up very late in the build queue when bootstrapping on a new architecture. Since pmix is apparently required for openmpi and openmpi is used by many other packages, it would be nice if src:pmix could be modified such that pandoc is used for Build-Depends-Indep only, i.e. only for building the arch:all packages which makes more sense anyway since pandoc generates documentation which is usually architecture-independent. Could you modify src:pmix such that pandoc is not required for binary-arch builds? Thanks, Adrian -- .''`.
