 Replying to [comment:3 aronnax@…]:

 > Yes, it's optional. This way, the user would not have to research how to
 obtain pandoc.

 Without pandoc dependency, `port rdeps py34-ipython +notebook' yields 22
 dependencies.  With pandoc, the number of dependencies shoots up to 112!

 I don't think an average user expects to see 112 dependencies when all
 he/she wants is to install ipython.  This change is completely
 unnecessary, and is precisely what drives users from macports to homebrew.
