I used to follow the instructions at &lt;https://pandoc.org/installing.html#custom-cabal-method&gt; to build pandoc with the cabal configure `--flags="embed_data_files lua53"`.<div><br /></div><div>Since `git pull`ing to the pandoc 3.* source tree, this no longer builds an executable. I see from the Pandoc 3.0 announcement on this list that the packaging has split in some ways.</div><div><br /></div><div>Is it still possible to build all the components with custom cabal configure flags? How do I go about it? Can I just cd to the `pandoc-cli` subdirectory and do the following there:</div><div><br /></div><div>```</div><div>cabal update</div><div>
<p>cabal install --only-dependencies</p>
<p>cabal configure --prefix=/usr/local --flags="embed_data_files lua53"</p>
<p>cabal build<br /></p>
<p>./dist-newstyle/build/x86_64-osx/ghc-*/pandoc-*/x/pandoc/build/pandoc/pandoc --version<br /></p><p>```</p><p>Or do I have to first run those steps in the top-level directory, then do `cabal install`, then repeat them in the `pandoc-cli` subdirectory? When I try to only do the steps in the `pandoc-cli` subdirectory, it seems like a binary version of the main `pandoc` library is being downloaded, rather than one built using my custom configure flags.</p><p>Is the option to build using the Lua 5.3 engine still available? I've been fiddling around and it seems like however I do the build, I end up with a pandoc executable that says it uses the Lua 5.4 engine.</p><p><br /></p></div>
