Tags, dates and chronological orders are working/correct.

And I've fixed the flickr script.

I'm having issues with your build script Jamie.

root@358c417112a1:/home/jamie/geekout.org.uk# ./build.sh
error: cannot run ssh: No such file or directory
fatal: unable to fork
'git pull --prune origin' failed:  at /usr/share/perl5/IkiWiki/Plugin/git.pm line 251.

Been spending some time debugging via: https://github.com/kaihendry/geekout.org.uk/blob/JamieKitson-master/Makefile I also created a Dockerfile just to create a sane reproducible build environment https://github.com/kaihendry/geekout.org.uk/blob/JamieKitson-master/Dockerfile

Btw did you notice https://github.com/kaihendry/geekout.org.uk/blob/master/bin/build-site ? Tbh I think we should focus on getting that Docker environmen workingt, so that it can build the ikiwiki site.

@kaihendry I don't understand what you're saying here, my build script does not call ssh, but the error messages seem quite clear.

That looks like an old copy of my build script when I was trying to get Netlify to install ikiwiki, my current one just runs ikiwiki, I think the important things are the build parameters and the config file.

I've finally created a Dockerfile for reproducing your build which appears to work:

(ins)[hendry@t14s geekout.org.uk]$ cat Dockerfile
FROM ubuntu

ENV TZ=Europe/London
RUN ln -snf /usr/share/zoneinfo/$TZ /etc/localtime && echo $TZ > /etc/timezone

RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
    ikiwiki libtext-multimarkdown-perl libimage-magick-perl build-essential vim-tiny \
    && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*

WORKDIR /home/jamie/geekout.org.uk

COPY . .

CMD ["/home/jamie/geekout.org.uk/build.sh"]
(ins)[hendry@t14s geekout.org.uk]$ docker build -q -t geekout .
sha256:9546cfadf5ae62c328e1b87248a520811758d5e8420834ec5abd6beee4219592
(ins)[hendry@t14s geekout.org.uk]$ docker run --rm -v /tmp/out:/home/jamie/geekout.org.uk/out geekout

Next steps is to put this in a Github action to deploy to s3://geekout.org.uk
