A solution could be to build two additional subpackages from the pandoc src.rpm: markdown2pdf-texlive and markdown2pdf . They should depend on the needed TeX packages (everything that is needed for the conversion, any TeX packages), and pass valid arguments to pdflatex. (Now, pandoc doesn't depend on a TeX distro, and that is OK, because TeX is not needed for most of the conversions done by pandoc, apart from the conversion to PDF done by this separate tool.)

В p8 проблема решена. pandoc hello.md -o hello.pdf Предварительно установив texlive-recommended. t6 уже не поддерживается, так что WONTFIX.
