>    * Python helpers split to external project:
>      https://github.com/rpm-software-management/python-rpm-packaging
>    * Various unmaintained scripts removed
>    * New buildroot policy to remove `.la` files by default
>    * Man pages converted to Markdown for easier maintenance + many other
>      doc improvements
>    * Miscellaneous bugs and regressions fixed
>
> In other words, there are more external dependencies now, packaging will
> need to be updated and adjusted accordingly etc. Normally one would
> rather have these in the alpha already but the timing was impossible in
> this case. We'll try to step on the brakes harder going towards rc which
> should take place in August.

Probably due to:
"checking for pandoc... no"
(undetected new dep)

Many distros do not have pandoc available…

So I would blame:
