[R-pkg-devel] pandoc lua filter error with win devel check

[Max Turgeon]

There was a discussion on this list last year about which version of pandoc is available on CRAN machines, without a definite answer: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-package-devel/2019q2/004126.html


But I think it's completely possible that win-builder doesn't have pandoc 2.0, which is required for lua-filters AFAIK. On your side of things, the best you can do is to ensure that you add

"SystemRequirements: pandoc (>= 2.0)" (or something like that) to your DESCRIPTION file, and add a corresponding justification to your submission comments.

Hi
Rmarkdown supports lua filters. So I guess the rmarkdown and or pandoc in
win devel are not updated.

Best,
