DEPRECATION WARNING about sass with minimal-mistakes-jekyll theme

Hi.

I have been getting the following warning:

DEPRECATION WARNING: Passing a string to call() is deprecated and will be illegal
in Sass 4.0. Use call(get-function(“variable-exists”)) instead.

for a while.

Today I updated jekyll and the minimal-mistakes-jekyll theme using ‘‘bundle’’, but I’m still getting that warning.

Output from bundle is below - is there anything I need to install/update to fix this? I’ve had a look on github and here and am struggling to work out what is going on. (note: my jekyll sites build OK)

I’m on Ubuntu 20.04

Cheers, Pete

Bundle complete! 10 Gemfile dependencies, 51 gems now installed.
Use bundle info [gemname] to see where a bundled gem is installed.

It is not a real issue, just a warning. Deprecated does not mean it does not work.

Bug Fixes

Same warning as you saw.
I installed "gem "jekyll-sass-converter", "~> 2.0" in my Gemfile, with the specific version of sass-converter.
Then run bundle update. You will see in console: Using jekyll-sass-converter 2.2.0 (was 3.0.0)
Then restart your jekyll. It should be worked without the warning now.
