[Pkg-haskell-maintainers] Bug#762131: pandoc: markdown → docx → markdown roundtrip fails with Data.Text.Encoding.Fusion.streamUtf8: Invalid UTF-8 stream

pandoc 1.12.4 does not support docx as an input format -- only
as an output format. docx as input is only supported in pandoc 1.13.x.
So, this is not a bug.
