Hi,

I noticed that the following commit changed many haskell packages from being "makedepends" to "depends" which basically means that we need to install an extra 700MB to get pandoc now!

https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/community.git/commit/trunk?h=packages/pandoc&id=d340c92f8cf5686509551c08bcdaa0b5e66760b0

Is there a reason for that? Are all these haskell packages really necessary in order to use pandoc?

Thanks.
This task depends upon
