Excellent question.

For starters, we will need updates for the following Haskell libraries:

  * texmath >= 0.10 && < 0.11
  * pandoc-types >= 1.17.3 && < 1.18
  * skylighting >= 0.5.1 && < 0.6
  * hslua >= 0.9.5 && < 0.10

...and these Haskell libraries now missing needs to be packaged:

  * hslua-module-text >= 0.1.2 && < 0.2
  * cmark-gfm >= 0.1.1 && < 0.2

I would appreciate if someone other than me in the team could package 
those.  Or tell me if problematic, then I can investiate if restrictions 
in Pandoc can be relaxed via patches.


When above is done, I intend to package Pandoc 2.x targeted 
experimental, and file bugreports against reverse dependencies to have 
them tested for regressions.

then we can consider if possible to simply have the pandoc package 
upgraded to 2.x or we need to introduce a new pandoc2 package (if that 
is possible at all - I suspect the dependencies e.g. on pandoc-types may 
diverge too much).
