Cannot easily contribute to the wiki

[Joshua Branson]

Hello,

A few years ago I had the Hurd wiki cloned locally, and I could rather
trivially set it up.  However, following the online guide a few days
ago, I'm running into some issues.

https://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/contributing/web_pages.html

I've cloned the repo.  I've run

$ apt-get install ikiwiki libyaml-syck-perl markdown
libsearch-xapian-perl texinfo

Neither of these commands work in the web pages directory:

 ikiwiki --setup ikiwiki.setup

./render_locally


They both fail with "Failed to load plugin, Ikiwiki::Plugin::field".

Basically getting all of ikiwiki's plugins needed to run the hurd wiki
is a bit of a pain.

This is not a complaint just an observation and a request for help.

Thanks,

Joshua
