I am semi-regularly IM'ing or emailing with the RStudio founder whom I'll
meet tomorrow. I also have pretty good contacts with a number of other
RStudio developers and engineers.
You want to look at the current dev packages, eg (in binary)
http://rstudio.org/download/daily/
which, inter alia, contain a very cooked-up local build of pandoc to be able
to get the very, very latest pandoc binary without any depends.
I am not sure how ready this is even for Debian unstable, and they _do_
provide ready-made .deb packages that users like myself deploy.
I can ask tomorrow, but RStudio is still a pretty fast moving target.
