Thanks for the speedy response!  I still am getting some issues...On my
Parabola GNU/Linux machine, I get the following issues when running
"./render_locally".

$ ymlfront: failed to use YAML::Syck

Luckily Parabola packages perl-yaml-syck!  But after I ran installed
perl-yaml-syck, I still got the same error:

$ ymlfront: failed to use YAML::Syck

So I rebooted and tried again.   Same error:

$ ymlfront: failed to use YAML::Syck


Granted, on my parabola machine, I'm not sure if I have all of the
dependancies.  Mainly the wiki says to use apt-get, which I don't have.

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


Here's the dependancies I know I have:

[joshua@dobby hurd-web]$ pacman -Q markdown texinfo perl-yaml-syck
discount 2.2.4-1
texinfo 6.5-1
perl-yaml-syck 1.30-5


[joshua@dobby hurd-web]$ guix package -I ikiwiki
ikiwiki 3.20170111      out     
/gnu/store/xsrhihjj1rjhzhba0b2dfmbhd7c0j115-ikiwiki-3.20170111


So since my Parabola GNU/Linux machine didn't work, I thought I'd try
the Hurd vm I have.

Then I booted up my Hurd VM and tried git pulling.

 fatal: Unable to look up darnassus.sceen.net (port 9418) (Temporary failure in 
n
                                       ame resolution)


I also got this error as the vm was booting:
ip up: failed to bring up /dev/eth0


So, I'm kind of stuck at the moment.  :(
