The remote host is missing an update for the 'pandoc' package(s) on Fedora 38. Pandoc is a Haskell library for converting from one markup format to another, and a command-line tool that uses this library. It can handle various formats, including light markup, HTML, ebook, documentation, roff, TeX, XML, outline, bibliography, word processor, interactive notebook, page layout, wiki markup, slide show, data formats, and PDF. Pandoc can convert mathematical content in documents between TeX, MathML, Word equations, roff eqn, and plain text. It includes a powerful system for automatic citations and bibliographies, and it can be customized extensively using templates, filters, and custom readers and writers written in Lua. For pdf output please also install pandoc-pdf or weasyprint
