One of the Debian developers maintaining the Pandoc package remarked:
I no longer use xmonad myself, but remember frm when I did that the biggest frustration was that you'd need a working _development_ environment, and each time Haskell packages went out of sync (using Debian unstable), xmonad was one of the last ones to get back in sync. I imagine that a decoupling from Pandoc might change that.

I will be happy to take a stab at changing GenerateManPage to use cmark instead of Pandoc, if it sounds useful to you.
I have tried doing so now - Pandoc does more than cmark, so it's more intrusive than I would have liked. [...]
I tried an alternative approach: drop the Haskell dependency on Pandoc/cmark entirely and use the command-line interface, which I believe is more stable than the Haskell library interface. I implemented that here: https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad/pull/260 Do you folks think this is a viable option or are there any pitfalls that I'm not seeing? Any feedback highly appreciated. -- Tomáš Janoušek, a.k.a. Pivník, a.k.a. Liskni_si, https://work.lisk.in/
