ERROR: Error installing jekyll using RVM manager Debian GNU/Linux 11

[meerasebastian21]

Description

I was trying to create a Docker image that contains ruby, and bundler.For ruby installation, I am using rvm and ruby version is 3.1.2

Steps to reproduce

RUN apt-get update && \
    apt-get upgrade -y && \
    apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends make build-essential gnupg2 curl  zlib1g-dev procps  && \
    curl -sSL https://rvm.io/mpapis.asc | gpg2 --import && \ 
    curl -sSL https://rvm.io/pkuczynski.asc | gpg2 --import && \ 
    curl -sSL https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --ruby && \  
    apt-get autoclean && apt-get --purge --yes autoremove && \
  	rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* /tmp/* /var/tmp/*

RUN /bin/bash -l -c ". /etc/profile.d/rvm.sh && source /usr/local/rvm/scripts/rvm && rvm install ruby-3.1.2 && rvm --default use ruby-3.1.2"

RUN /bin/bash -l -c "gem install bundler && gem --version && bundler --version && ruby -v && gem update --system"

RUN /bin/bash -l -c "gem install jekyll"

Expected behavior

Jekyll to be installed successfully

It appears your mkdir is not in the expected path and some MAKE file is relying on it.
Check which mkdir. If not at /usr/bin/mkdir, try sudo ln -s /bin/mkdir /usr/bin/mkdir.
