From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Looking at ghostty-git in AUR, zig is built on haskell? With 221 haskell libraries.
And what does it need pandoc-cli and hslua-cli for?
Checked the build.zig file for ghostty, seems to be for manpage generation. Zig itself doesn't use Haskell though
What the hell?
Chill, it's just pandoc.
But i use pandoc-bin, because i was annoyed by dozens of haskell lib updates each update run...
Unless you frequently build this from source, you don't need to care about the pandoc build-time dep.
