I don't think it is a bug so much as there is something wrong with my installation. Though it also happened when I tried to build my site on Debian stable as well.

Reproduction steps

This error occurs when I run npx @11ty/eleventy

Expected behavior

The site should build.

Which version of the plugin did you install? eleventy-plugin-rss v2 requires Eleventy 3.0 (currently in beta). I think you have to explicitly install v1 of the plugin to work with Eleventy 2.x.

(Personally, I'd recommend checking out Eleventy 3.0. It's very stable, we already use it in production.)

Can I ask a noob question and ask how you go about installing that version? 3.0 I mean. If that will fix this I will gladly use it.

how you go about installing that version?

Hi @mtwb47, you can use the Eleventy upgrade helper plugin, and follow the instructions.

Tried that but end up with the same error that I do when trying to push a new build of my site. The RSSplugin error.

I'm giving up.
