(I send this message again because it does not appear in the archive). Hello, Thank you Remco for your help. I was able to run jekyll without and with bundle using your instructions. I am not sure what should be done with the package. To use Jekyll with bundle, here are the details in case someone would get stucked: sego@pluto ~/job/site/www$ guix shell jekyll ruby -D ruby sego@pluto ~/job/site/www [env]$ jekyll new tmpdir Running bundle install in /home/sego/job/site/www/tmpdir... New jekyll site installed in /home/sego/job/site/www/tmpdir. sego@pluto ~/job/site/www [env]$ cd tmpdir/ sego@pluto ~/job/site/www/tmpdir [env]$ bundle add webrick sego@pluto ~/job/site/www/tmpdir [env]$ bundle exec jekyll serve [...] Server address: http://127.0.0.1:4000/ Server running... press ctrl-c to stop.
