Package: pandoc
Version: 2.5-2+b1
Severity: important
Hello!
I've just encountered a new issue with pandoc.
Since the last upgrade of texlive-* packages
(2019.20190930-1 -> 2019.20191112-1), pandoc is no longer able to
produce a PDF file (through LaTeX) from a markdown file including
horizontal rules.
Steps to reproduce:
$ cat hrule.md
# Some horizontal rules
----------
* * * *
______
$ pandoc hrule.md -o hrule.pdf
Error producing PDF.
! Missing number, treated as zero.
<to be read again>
\protect
l.62 ...enter}\rule{0.5\linewidth}{\linethickness}
It seems that pdflatex does not like the LaTeX code generated by
pandoc:
$ pandoc hrule.md -o hrule.tex
$ grep rule hrule.tex
\hypertarget{some-horizontal-rules}{%
\section{Some horizontal rules}\label{some-horizontal-rules}}
\begin{center}\rule{0.5\linewidth}{\linethickness}\end{center}
\begin{center}\rule{0.5\linewidth}{\linethickness}\end{center}
\begin{center}\rule{0.5\linewidth}{\linethickness}\end{center}
$ texfot pdflatex hrule.tex
/usr/bin/texfot: invoking: pdflatex hrule.tex
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159265-2.6-1.40.20 (TeX Live 2019/Debian)
(preloaded format=pdflatex)
! Missing number, treated as zero.

l.62 ...enter}\rule{0.5\linewidth}{\linethickness}
! Emergency stop.
<to be read again>
l.62 ...enter}\rule{0.5\linewidth}{\linethickness}
! ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!
Transcript written on hrule.log.
Please fix this bug and/or forward my bug report upstream.
Thanks for your time.
Bye!
