Hi. I’m currently running fedora 36 and trying to work on a Jekyll site with ruby, but whatever i do i cant make it work.
I already installed and reinstalled ruby and ruby devel, and installed all the jekyll/ruby dependencies. But if i run bundle install i get a lot of errors.

Run `bundle install` to install missing gems.
I tried to do what the log say and run
gem pristine commonmarker --version 0.23.4
or bundle install, but after any of that commands finish nothing changes and i get back to the loop. What is failing?
You probably want to use rvm or rbenv. It’s not a good idea to mix rpm and gem ruby libraries and conflicts are likely, especially if you host multiple ruby projects on the same box.
To be honest, I containerize all my ruby projects at this point and keep them totally separate from each other and the host ruby that way.
We shouldn’t install gems using sudo (just as we shouldn’t install python packages via pip with sudo), they’ll overwrite files installed using dnf and that can create all sorts of issues which are really hard to correct.
bundle can install in a provided location. See bundle help install for more information on the --pathoption, for example. It will use the same paths used by gem, which you can see using gem environment.
Loads of good suggestions here, so perhaps one of them has fixed your issue. If so, please use the Solution button to show which one fixed it.
If none of these worked for you, here’s another potential fix. When I run into this issue, usually due to a new Ruby version, I uninstall all the gems for which I see the complaint about extensions not being built, then reinstall either with bundle or gem.
Just one of those annoying things about doing updates, having to find what needs to be manually upgraded and how to do so. (My favorite annoyance happens to be Postgresql version updates and having to manually pull the databases up.)
i tried installed locally, then running bundle exec rake preview to start the server, then it ask me to run bundle install, and the loop start over. And the "
Ignoring commonmarker-0.23.4 because its extensions are not built. Try: gem pristine commonmarker --version 0.23.4
and similar errors keeps appearing, but i cant make it work. I will try with rvm, but right now it seems quite difficult.
I think i should uninstall rubygems, but dnf uninstall rubygems does not find the package. Is named different in fedora?
So i can have a clean installation with RVM.
edit:
trying to install GPD keys for RVM it says
gpg: recepción del servidor de claves fallida: El servidor ha indicado un fallo
which translates like:
GPD keys reception failed: the server has pointed an error.
For each of these, try manually removing, such as gem uninstall commonmarker
When all of the “extensions are not built” gems have been uninstalled, retry bundle install. If any gems fail to build with their extensions at this point, you’ll need to track down why, resolve those build issues, and install again. Some gems may require some other files to be independently installed, usually due to dependencies on some package headers or libraries.
Hopefully you aren’t getting further into a mess by trying multiple things at the same time, such as uninstalling using default ruby then installing using rvm then using bundle without the rvm environment, etc. Stick to one exploration path at a time.
Try gem uninstall commonmarker then gem list commonmarker (to ensure you don’t have multiple versions around), then gem install commonmarker --version 0.23.4. Copy the output and paste it here using the </> markup so we can see the failure, if any. If no failure with the gem install, then copy/paste the output of bundle install.
Thank you so much and sorry for the errors. I’m totally new to fedora and ruby.
I did what you said and I’m no longer getting errors, when i do “bundle install” everything seems fine, but is like nothing is being installed.

If I try to start the Jekyll server with bundle exec rake preview, it says it cant find the gems.

Install missing gem executables with `bundle install`
Let’s go back a few posts … Ankur mentions early on how to do gem installations without needing sudo … Using sudo, you’d be managing gem installations for all users of the server/workstation, but a safer option is to just manage gems for your individual user. In particular, since you’re using bundle for everything, check out bundle help install as he recommends.
By the way, this is more of a question about how to use Ruby in a Linux environment rather than a specific Fedora question.
100% this is true. It’s best to use rbenv or rvm and install gems in that environment without using sudo. Use gem, bundle, or rake, etc., in that context.
