The more I think about it, the more I suspect my path setting. In Ubuntu, apparently, there's a ~/gems/bin directory, which is to go at the head of the PATH, but what's the equivalent in Gentoo? I could create that directory, but what should I put in it? In fact, I did create the directory, empty, and these commands did finish: $ GEM_HOME="$HOME/gems" PATH="$HOME/gems/bin:$PATH" gem install jekyll bundler $ jekyll new myblog --force But then, $ GEM_HOME="$HOME/gems" PATH="$HOME/gems/bin:$PATH" bundle exec jekyll serve Could not locate Gemfile or .bundle/ directory I'm clutching at straws, as you can see... -- Regards, Peter.
