ANN: pandoc 1.15.1

ANN: pandoc 1.15.1

[John MacFarlane]

I'm pleased to announce the release of pandoc 1.15.1.

It is available as usual on Hackage, and binary packages
for OSX, Windows, and 64-bit linux can be found at
https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/releases/tag/1.15.1

A list of changes can be found here:
http://pandoc.org/releases.html

Those who install from source may now use either cabal
or stack.

Some highlights of this release include:

- A new reader for the ODT format.

- More consistent handling of languages: setting the
  `lang` metadata variable with a value in BCP47 format
  (e.g., `en_US`) will now work in all output formats.

- Support for bidirectional text output in XeLaTeX,
  ConTeXt, and HTML/EPUB.

Thanks to all who contributed, and especially to MarLinn
for the ODT reader; to Ophir Lifshitz for many improvements
to the readers; and to mb21, Nick Bart, and Andrew
Dunning for their work on improving language support.

Github has source and binaries for Linux and OS/Z.  No Windows
binaries are present for 1.15.1.

I pulled the Windows binary after realizing that there was
a problem with it
(https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/issues/2459).

I have just released 1.15.1.1 with a new Windows package
that fixes the problem.  All Windows users who installed the
1.15.1 package should install this new package.

Hi John,

Scripts relying on the github api to obtain 'latest' binary builds break 
when the asset listing in releases changes.

Do you need to do each of these by hand or can it be automated to be 
consistent and sustainable?

I want to move towards more automation; currently creating
the binary packages for all three platforms requires some
manual work, which is why I didn't bother for 1.15.1.1.

Has there been a change to the build procedure for OSX since 1.15.0.6?  I 
just got around to updating, and the new version won't run on my Mac.  I 
get the error:
Illegal instruction: 4

Of course, I'm stuck on 10.7.5 until I can afford to upgrade hardware - and 
there's no particular reason why you should be supporting OSes that Apple 
has even dropped security patch support for, but it's been working until 
now...  ;)

Daniel,

FYI, I'm on Mavericks and getting pandoc through homebrew. Up to the latest 
version with no problems.

Mavericks is a couple generations newer than what I've got.  (You could 
actually upgrade to El Capitan if you wanted...)  I've got a couple 
problems trying that:  First off, my XCode install is broken, and I can't 
download the right version to fix it, since the latest version doesn't work 
with my OS.  Secondly, I've got an interesting disk setup - the OS + apps 
are on a small SSD, with my user files on a large HDD.  Homebrew is large, 
and installs to the system disk - filling it, last time I tried anything.

It's not that big a problem, really.  I mostly use Pandoc as a 
Markdown/HTML to 'simplified' HTML processor for FanFiction.net and a 
couple other similar sites, so most of the advanced features are things I 
can't use even if I wanted to.  But I like to stay up to date and try 
things on occasion.  ;)  So, I just wanted to know if this was a conscious 
choice or if it was just that something built against newer libraries 
unintentionally.

No, it wasn't a conscious choice.  And there might be a way
to fix things for you by fiddling with compiler options.
But I don't have time to do that right now, and it would be
inconvenient testing, since I don't have an archaic OS X
handy!  If anyone else has suggestions, let me know.

Can you try the 1.15.2 package I just released?  I tried to
set it up to compile for 10.7+ -- not sure if I succeeded
because I don't have a machine that old to test on.

It works, thanks!  ;)

Sorry to be trouble - sooner or later I'll have the money to upgrade, but 
it hasn't happened yet.
