[Bioc-devel] Pandoc issues

[Hervé Pagès]

Hi Vladimir,

mmh... scmap::getSankey() used to work (and still works in the release
version of scmap) so I wonder what could have changed in the devel
version or in one of its dependencies to cause it to fail now...

Anyway we'll look into updating pandoc to the latest version (currently
at version 1.19.1 on the Linux build machines).

As for rmarkdown, it's a CRAN package and is currently at version 1.8
there:

   https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/rmarkdown/index.html

That's the version installed on the build machines. Note that we only
install packages from CRAN or Bioconductor on these machines.

If you think you found a bug in rmarkdown 1.8, or if you need a
feature that is only available in the devel version of rmarkdown,
I would suggest that you contact the rmarkdown developers by opening
an issue on GitHub:

   https://github.com/rstudio/rmarkdown/issues

If the devel version of rmarkdown requires a higher version of pandoc
in order to work properly, then maybe you could suggest them to update
the SystemRequirements field, which is currently:

   SystemRequirements: pandoc (>= 1.12.3) - http://pandoc.org

(in both, rmarkdown 1.8 and 1.8.3)

Best,
H.
