Yesterday, I installed Jekyll for the first time and wanted to test it. I’m just having a problem executing the command to create the website. I’m getting the following message in the terminal:

As OS im using Linux (EndeavourOS).

I don’t know how to fix these problem, so I decided to ask everyone here to guide me through these steps. Any suggestions on how I can fix this?

looking at all the paths to ruby files at the bottom it looks like you have jekyll installed in more than one place and it can’t find everything it needs.

I would try uninstalling and re-installing ruby and jekyll. I don’t think it should be showing stuff is in both /usr and /home.
