Shouldn't kernel-doc print a warning for syntactic mistakes like this rather than silently accomodating to it in whatever way? As to the usage of markdown in general, there's documentation coming up for vga_switcheroo which makes use of that so I'd love to see it merged: https://github.com/l1k/linux/commit/d1476d748b5f1adf5bffe8e0a8bafad1e879d22f https://github.com/l1k/linux/commit/11c55ae65788162970d8fa23cd1fd2518af55d34 The large set of dependencies pulled in on Fedora is likely to be blamed on the RedHat packaging being notoriously coarse-grained. By comparison, Debian is extremely fine-grained, kind of the opposite extreme, and therefore has comparatively few prerequisites: https://packages.debian.org/jessie/pandoc I do agree however that alternative tools with fewer dependencies should be supported and it would be great if the markdown patches were amended to that end.
