Auto Identifier Cannot be Disabled

[thekief]

We have a small setup with Pandoc and Lua filters to generate some documentation. While running the filter, which includes files similar to pp, we get the output

[WARNING] Duplicate identifier ...

The call looks like this:

/usr/local/bin/pandoc                           \
  -f markdown+lists_without_preceding_blankline-auto_identifiers \
  -t markdown+lists_without_preceding_blankline-auto_identifiers \
  -L ./lua-filters/include-sections.lua         \
  -o _tmp.md orig.md

I'm a bit confused why the auto identifiers extension seems to be run, although it's disabled. Is that maybe some weird interaction with the Lua filter?

Are you sure there are no duplicate explicit identifers in the source?

Could it be that the Lua filter generates the identifiers? If it runs make_sections, then that may be what is happening.
You should be able to figure this out by experimenting on something very simple.

Thank you for your answer, I really appreciate it.

I cannot test it, as I don't have access to the document anymore, thus I closed the discussion. So I can sadly cannot give any update here
