Description wolfgang 2021-03-12 03:27:08 UTC
Per upstream [1], this package has been deprecated. Keeping this around will prevent a newer pandoc-2.11 from being added, which will also block a newer rstudio.

[1]: https://hackage.haskell.org/package/pandoc-citeproc

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 wolfgang 2021-05-03 15:16:24 UTC
Changing from "IN_PRGORESS" to "CONFIRMED" because although PR 19865 originally included this it was taken out.
Comment 2 Helmut Jarausch 2021-06-12 11:32:35 UTC
The recent sci-mathematics/rstudio--1.3.1093-r1
still depends on this package.

What can I do?
Thanks,
Helmut

What issue are you running into?

pandoc-citeproc should still be available in ::Gentoo.

The recent rstudio change is simply a revision bump to fix some incompatibilities with newer boost library
Comment 4 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2021-11-16 08:42:52 UTC
For example in Fedora they dropped the dependency some months ago:

I am generally against removing anything (I always say to myself "Well, yesterday it was important, today it's not?") - BUT: let me describe to you, just FYI, the kind of hell I'm having trying to upgrade haskell, pandoc & Co.:

Suppose you have rstudio installed, or you want to install it.

rstudio (the only available ebuild rstudio-1.3.1093-r1.ebuild) needs dev-haskell/pandoc-citeproc as a running dependency. So far so good. I cannot say if this is right or wrong.

dev-haskell/pandoc-citeproc (the only available ebuild pandoc-citeproc-0.17.0.2.ebuild) poses severe restrictions on its running dependency pandoc:

>=app-text/pandoc-2.8:=[profile?] <app-text/pandoc-2.11:=[profile?]

This means, that from the three available versions (all testing on amd64) of pandoc:

* app-text/pandoc
     Available versions:  (~)2.9.2.1:0/2.9.2.1^t (~)2.11.3.1:0/2.11.3.1^t (~)2.13:0/2.13^t {doc embed-data-files hscolour optimize profile static test trypandoc}

the *only one* that can be used is 2.9.2.1 (that's where the root of the problem lies).

Now, pandoc-2.9.2.1 requires <dev-haskell/hslua-1.1:=[profile?].

But the one and only available version of dev-haskell/hslua-module-path-0.1.0.1 requires >=dev-haskell/hslua-1.2:=[profile?].

So you can't install dev-haskell/hslua and dev-haskell/hslua-module-path together - but you must, because they go together.

Now what?

You can easily reproduce this by hard-unmerging the respective haskell packages, including app-text/pandoc (but you can leave rstudio, if it's installed, to save you the hassle of long compilation):

emerge -C dev-haskell/texmath dev-haskell/hslua-module-text dev-haskell/hslua-module-system dev-haskell/hslua-module-path dev-haskell/commonmark-pandoc dev-haskell/citeproc dev-haskell/pandoc-types dev-haskell/hslua dev-haskell/pandoc-citeproc app-text/pandoc

Now rstudio will be "broken" (theoretically) for a moment. But try to merge them again:

emerge -1Dav dev-haskell/texmath dev-haskell/hslua-module-text dev-haskell/hslua-module-system dev-haskell/hslua-module-path dev-haskell/commonmark-pandoc dev-haskell/citeproc dev-haskell/pandoc-types dev-haskell/hslua dev-haskell/pandoc-citeproc app-text/pandoc

Here is what I get:

These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:

portage stops at this point and does not do anything (of course, what shall it do?). Now, the system is not "just a bit broken" - it's *really* broken because we also lost pandoc and various haskell packages...very frustrating!

This could probably be resolved by getting pandoc-citeproc to work with higher versions of pandoc (higher than 2.9.2.1, e.g. the also available 2.11.3.1 or 2.13 versions), but I don't know if this is possible at all of if Gentoo can do anything about it...

From a user perspective, I ask myself "is pandoc-citeproc really *needed* to run rstudio?". That is, do I need a package for citations to do statistics? I may need it if I do statistics, want to write a paper with Rmarkdown *and* want to cite someone - then, maybe yes. So this could be possibly alleviated with the introduction of a "citeproc" USE flag: pandoc-citeproc would be pulled-in only if that USE flag were present.

One of the above two solutions is probably needed, otherwise the dependencies are unsolvable.
Comment 6 segmentation fault 2022-02-09 07:53:57 UTC
I already have rstudio installed - I don't know how I managed, possibly by not using --deep when I merged it. I tried the second solution above and just took the dependency on pandoc-citeproc away from rstudio's ebuild (just deleted the line).

Retrying to merge the packages (without asking explicitly for pandoc-citeproc this time) with

emerge -1Dav dev-haskell/texmath dev-haskell/hslua-module-text dev-haskell/hslua-module-system dev-haskell/hslua-module-path dev-haskell/commonmark-pandoc dev-haskell/citeproc dev-haskell/pandoc-types dev-haskell/hslua app-text/pandoc

results in a very acceptable offer (you see that the only thing that was keeping pandoc from being bumped to 2.13 was pandoc-citeproc!). This even frees the way to upgrade some other packages. It looks very good to me:

so I'm going to accept and see if rstudio runs or not afterwards.

rstudio runs after the above. I guess the only restriction is that I cannot cite papers in Rmarkdown now, since pandoc-citeproc is not installed...
