[Solved] Having trouble with Jekyll on a new laptop: Help a casual web dev dum-dum out! (aggregatet.org)

Since I moved to a new laptop, my Jekyll setup seems to have become unusable. It appears the gems required by my site aren't found, or properly configured, even after a bundle install command that updated a bunch of them.

~~Error messages on bundle exec jekyll serve: https://pastebin.com/gyg8YpMx~~

Result of bundle install: https://pastebin.com/LKSstmJt

I'm by no means a Jekyll or Ruby expert (barely a user), but I used to have a tolerably functional environment to update my site. Any help on getting that up and running again is much appreciated!

Update 1:

I managed to solve the SASS issue that @[email protected] pointed out. Now the bundler asks about a possible typo in a gallery plugin 😰

See new error messages on bundle exec jekyll serve: https://pastebin.com/kk6HHv7Y I hope not every line in there is an error I have to fix...

Update 2 (solved)

Edited the RB plugin file according to the error message, and ...that was all? The site generates as in the olden days.

Thank you all who chipped in with advice!

libsass.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory (LoadError)

You're missing the SASS library

Separate from the SASS gem, then? I added the result of bundle install to OP for clarity, and that says Using sassc 2.4.0 among others.

So on Arch I get a handful of hits in the AUR searching for "libsass". Do I want the Ruby module, the Perl one, or the C implementation?

(I told you to expect dumb questions) :D

The error message says

Could not open library '/home/thatsmehere/gems/gems/sassc-2.4.0/ext/libsass.so'

so I'd guess it's the ruby module since it's deep in the gems folder...

Thought so too, so I tried gem install sassc. No luck though 🫤
