Hi Andrew,

I hope you don't mind I cc'ed Fedora Haskell list too
in case anyone else is looking for this.  Thanks for your mail.

That's right since pandoc 1.12 the bibtex citeproc support was separated
out into pandoc-citeproc, so there was a slight functional regression
when we moved from 1.11 to 1.12.

A couple of options.  (1) There is a Fedora Package Review Request open
for pandoc-citeproc: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1098854
So you could build yourself from the srpm there.  Hopefully it will get
reviewed soon and then it will appear in Fedora Updates after that.

(2) Otherwise you could use the cabal-install (or cabal-rpm, which will
install the packaged dependencies for you) to build it locally for yourself:

$ sudo yum install cabal-install
$ cabal update
$ cabal install pandoc-citeproc

If you need more help do ask, I am happy to answer more questions.
