Gem has come to have accidentally self-contradictory dependencies. about genesis-theme HOT 6 OPEN

I just made a PR that I believe fixes this bug.

@jingsam In fact, all of the libraries you mention there except octopress-content-for have support for Jekyll 2 & 3 in the most recent version. It seems that octopress-content-for was merely missed when doing a mass upgrade back in May.

I'm not sure that fixing it at gem 'jekyll', '~> 2.0' is a good idea. There's the obvious argument for up-to-date software, but a practical consideration as well: some of the most recent octopress plugin versions require Jekyll 3.0 explicitly (for various reasons).

As it turns out, the octopress-date-format library already supports Jekyll 3.0 in it's gemspec as of version 3.0.3. My guess (I was running into this issue as well) is that bundler doesn't do a good job of telling you all your options for correctly resolving dependency mismatches; it just picks one of the many errors.

For anyone willing to play around with this theme immediately (winter break side projects? 😛), I've forked and updated the errant dep to https://github.com/jez/content-for. Here's a sample Gemfile that shows how to use it:

source "http://rubygems.org"

gem 'jekyll', '>= 3.0'
gem 'octopress', '>= 3.0'
gem 'octopress-ink'

group :jekyll_plugins do
  gem 'octopress-content-for', git: 'https://github.com/jez/content-for.git'
  gem 'octopress-genesis-theme'
end

Happy hacking.

I ran into the same(?) issue when I tried to use the theme, however I'm not very familiar with the ruby world, so I'm hoping a solution to this surfaces soon_ish_.

Running into the same issue with using the octopress-genesis-theme gem with jekyll 3.0 and octopress 3.0. Bottom line: doesn't work because of dependencies for octopress-date-format (~> 2.0) . Any fixes? Can we just hack the source to change the dependencies since there is now a octopress-date-format (3.0.3)

Oh, you can run jekyll 3? I tried it and it failed, so I hat to fix it at ~> 2. (Blog for reference)

There might be a general need to update the dependencies and/or update to use jekyll 3, maybe?

I’ve updated my gems to Jekyll 3 and had no problems. Getting Octopress 3 to run. It's the Octopress-ink theme part that is broken.

Many libraries denpend on jekyll 2， which are

octopress-assign-tag
octopress-comment-tag
octopress-content-for
octopress-escape-code
octopress-autoprefixer

I think @imathis should update these libraries
