If these packages only use the “pandoc” executable they should use the
“pandoc” package instead of “ghc-pandoc”.  “ghc-pandoc” is only meant
for Haskell packages that use Pandoc as a library.  This is a much rarer
case, so we can assume that most packages should use “pandoc” instead of
“ghc-pandoc”.
