done on amd64. i386 looked fine.

Why exactly does gitit depend on pandoc? Does it need the exact version
of the binary, or does it need some data which do not change during
binNMUs?

In the latter case, we should eventually (after squeeze, or in
experimental) switch to a arch-all pandoc-data package, so that we do
not have to rebuilt gitit just because pandoc was binNMUed.

Greetings,
Joachim
