This issue looked related... #2015

adding the gem

gem 'opal'

results in

(eval at /usr/local/bundle/gems/tilt-2.0.11/lib/tilt/mapping.rb:246):1:in `block in lazy_load': uninitialized constant Opal::Processor (NameError)

at which point I found this issue: #2139

gem 'opal', '~> 0.10.5'

which results in

/usr/local/lib/ruby/3.3.0/bundled_gems.rb:74:in `require': cannot load such file -- racc/parser.rb (LoadError)

and searching around I found suggestions that I should

gem 'racc'

which brings us back to

/usr/local/bundle/gems/opal-0.11.4/lib/opal/paths.rb:8:in `core_dir': undefined method `untaint' for an instance of String (NoMethodError)

And I'm in way over my head. How does anyone use middleman these days? Am I on the wrong ruby or something?
