Result

Error producing PDF.

Workaround for now: add

-Mbook-class=false

or put

book-class: flase

in metadata.

[yopox]

Is there a reason for book-class to be true by default ? This breaks the compatibility with old .md files.

[jgm]

Don't worry about this; it's all fixed in the latest release.
This was just a workaround for the last one.

l.330 \frontmatter

With last version of pandoc and texlive.

Switching those in frontmatters don't change anything:

book: false
book-class: false

[noraj]

That's --top-level-division=chapter generating the issue with commonmark
