Help

I’ve upgrade to Debian Buster (latest stable), and now nothing works. :frowning:

ruby was upgraded to 2.5

ruby --version
ruby 2.5.5p157 (2019-03-15 revision 67260) [x86_64-linux-gnu]

I’ve cleared out my gems directory to see if I could reinstall from scratch all here’s what I get

gem install jekyll bundler

bummer, any ideas? (I really don’t want to go back to Stretch)

Has no one else tried installing jekyll in buster (or sid, previously) ?

Sorry for your long wait, this forum moves pretty slow. Did you ever get it worked out?

I’ve got no experience with debian, but it shouldn’t really matter. That error looks to me like one of jekyll’s dependencies is missing, or that something else went wrong with the installation process. I’d recommend uninstalling Ruby, using rbenv to manage your ruby version, and follow the install process again.

so here’s an interesting development.
I did a clean install today of debian buster
then followed the install instructions at https://terminaladdict.com/linux/jekyll/bash/development/2018/10/17/Jekyll-Getting-Started.html

Everything worked … so it seems, that things are broken in the upgrade process.
