\begin{document}

$body$

\end{document}

Then run the following command:
pandoc i-am-a-file.md -f markdown -o i-am-a-pdf.pdf --template i-am-a-template.tex

Output:
Error producing PDF.
! Undefined control sequence.
<argument> @{} >{\raggedright \arraybackslash
}p{(\columnwidth - 2\tabcolsep...
l.13 ...umnwidth - 2\tabcolsep) * \real{0.95}}@{}}

If I shorten the table to:
| HTTP | Usage |
|--------|---------|
| GET | Query |
| POST | Create |
| PUT | PUT PUT |
| DELETE | Delete |

Then I get the following output
Error producing PDF.
! Undefined control sequence.
l.12 \toprule
Which I think is related to a missing package in my sample template because I tried to strip it down as much as possible to show only the code that is producing the error.

Is this a known bug? Is there a workaround for it?
