Bug#1002586: pypandoc: autopkgtest regression: Pandoc died with exitcode "47" during conversion: pdflatex not found.

[Paul Gevers <elbrus@debian.org>]

Source: pypandoc
Version: 1.7.1+ds0-1
X-Debbugs-CC: debian-ci@lists.debian.org
Severity: serious
User: debian-ci@lists.debian.org
Usertags: regression

Dear maintainer(s),

With a recent upload of pypandoc the autopkgtest of pypandoc fails in 
testing when that autopkgtest is run with the binary packages of 
pypandoc from unstable. It passes when run with only packages from 
testing. In tabular form:

                       pass            fail
pypandoc               from testing    1.7.1+ds0-1
all others             from testing    from testing

I copied some of the output at the bottom of this report.

Currently this regression is blocking the migration to testing [1]. Can 
you please investigate the situation and fix it?
