I just noticed something which may or may not help.  The jekyllrb.com  
docs page, under Prerequisites, says Ruby version 2.5.0 or higher.  Why  
does the ebuild insist on 2.5 (no longer even in the tree) or 2.6.  If  
I were going to install it, the first thing I'd probably do is make a  
copy in my local overlay, and allow a newer version of ruby.  I don't  
think that is likely to help with your problem of not finding one thing  
or another, but who knows?  (A note lower down on that page says that  
using ruby 3.0.0 or higher add a requirement for webrick, but that is  
available in portage, and could be handled in the ebuild.
