bundle exec jekyll serve throws error for dependencies

[zachcowell]

I am attempting to run through the install steps locally (non-GH pages install). The instructions state:

If you’re not planning on hosting with GitHub Pages and want to leverage features found in the latest version of Jekyll, replace gem "github-pages" with gem "jekyll" in your Gemfile

However, after doing so, I do a bundle install followed by bundle exec jekyll serve I get the following:

[min-twitch] > bundle exec jekyll serve
Configuration file: /Users/zachcowell/Playground/blogs/min-twitch/_config.yml
  Dependency Error: Yikes! It looks like you don't have jekyll-sitemap or one of its dependencies installed. In order to use Jekyll as currently configured, you'll need to install this gem. The full error message from Ruby is: 'cannot load such file -- jekyll-sitemap' If you run into trouble, you can find helpful resources at http://jekyllrb.com/help/!

I resolved all this by changing my Gemfile to the following and everything seems to work now:

source "https://rubygems.org"

gem "jekyll"
gem "jekyll-paginate"
gem "jekyll-sitemap"
gem "jekyll-gist"
gem "jekyll-feed"
gem "jemoji"
# gem "jekyll-archives"
gem "wdm", "~> 0.1.0" if Gem.win_platform?

All true. The github-pages gem includes all of those gems by default (jekyll-sitemap, jekyll-gist, jemoji, etc. So removing it throws the error unless you specifically add in all of those. They're the same gems listed under gems in _config.yml.

I came across this issue today and had to manually add those gems to make it work. I suggest before you consider this issue closed, please update your instructions to make it clear that all other gems should be added in the Gemfile. It would save people a lot of time in the future.

Looking forward to use this theme and great work!
Thanks for making it available.
