Hi Konrad,

Should this really be the Haskell library variants?  Or just the
executables?  If it’s just the executables you can use the “pandoc” and
“pandoc-citeproc” packages.

It would be better to avoid this huge monolithic package.  Does
texlive-tiny work?  If it doesn’t: what else does it need that could be
added to a texlive-union?

There should be no trailing period.

This should be a complete sentence.
