Pandoc build package failed (missing dependencies?)

[icaroperseo]

Well, I am trying to install Pandoc on my system via spi as follows:

Code: Select all

sudo spi --install pandoc

The installation process fails displaying the following message:

Code: Select all

No such package or SlackBuild: haskell-json haskell-pandoc-types haskell-parsec haskell-utf8-string haskell-xml

Once installed the marked packages and their dependencies, I continued again with the installation process:

Code: Select all

sudo spi --install pandoc

displaying the following message:

Code: Select all

No such package or SlackBuild: haskell-base64-bytestring haskell-data-default haskell-random haskell-temporary haskell-zip-archive haskell-tagsoup haskell-citeproc-hs haskell-highlighting-kate haskell-texmath haskell-HTTP

Again I manually install the necessary packages and dependencies listed above, however, the process fails again to try to install the haskell-texmath package as follows:

Code: Select all

sudo spi --install haskell-texmath
No such package or SlackBuild: haskell-parsec haskell-syb haskell-xml

In trying to resolve its dependencies I observe that they are already installed. I update the cache to try to solve but the problem it still persists:

Code: Select all

sudo spi --update

Does anyone could help me on this?

Thanks in advance!!!

Strange. This looks like it might be a bug in spi, but I cannot test it right now. Try installing with slapt-src instead.

But, what do you want pandoc for?

I do not think is a bug in spi because the same thing happens if I do it from slapt-src. I uninstalled and installed the packages listed with both package managers and the problem continues . I have also tried clearing the cache but nothing changes.

But, what do you want pandoc for?

I need it to convert some previous articles which are in various markup languages (reST, markdown, html, mediawiki, and so on) for a work that I must to do.

On slackel (slackware-current) here it is what i did to install pandoc.

Code: Select all

sudo slapt-get -i ghc

Code: Select all

sudo slapt-src -i pandoc 

The last command also compiled and installed

Code: Select all

haskell-base64-bytestring haskell-dlist haskell-data-default haskell-random 
 haskell-temporary haskell-digest haskell-transformers haskell-mtl 
 haskell-utf8-string haskell-zlib haskell-zip-archive 
 haskell-extensible-exceptions haskell-text haskell-tagsoup haskell-syb 
 haskell-json haskell-pandoc-types haskell-parsec haskell-xml 
 haskell-citeproc-hs haskell-blaze-builder haskell-blaze-markup 
 haskell-blaze-html haskell-regex-base haskell-regex-pcre-builtin 
 haskell-highlighting-kate haskell-texmath haskell-network haskell-HTTP

If for any reason cannot build pandoc all packages are here

It's too strange I followed the procedure described by djemos and neither was able to make it work! I had to resort to the cited above link to install Pandoc, this is my output:

I have not had time to try but hope everything normally elapses...

Thanks guys!!!
