Syntax highlighting not working for Julia in Jekyll website

I'm using Jekyll with Github Pages and I'm having trouble displaying Julia code with proper syntax highlighting on my website.

Here is my blog post:

---
layout: post
title: 'Example post'
---

Here the highlighting works:

{% highlight python %}
# Python
x = 9

for i in range(1, 11):
    y = sqrt(x) - i
    print(y)
{% endhighlight %}

Here it doesn't:

{% highlight julia %}
# Julia 
x = 9

for i = 1:10
    y = sqrt(x) - i
    println(y)
end
{% endhighlight %}

Which when I run Jekyll locally with bundle exec jekyll serve --drafts produces the following (screenshot):

enter image description here

I read that Julia should be supported, so I'm not sure what might have gone wrong.

My config_yml looks something like this:

# Permalinks
permalink: pretty

# Setup
title: MyTitle
url: http://mywebsite.github.io
description: "Hello, I'm me."
paginate: 4
baseurl: ""

# Assets
# We specify the directory for Jekyll so we can use @imports.
sass:
  sass_dir: _sass
  style: :compressed

# About/contact
author:
  name: Firstname Surname
  email: [email protected]

# Custom vars
version: 2.0.0
github:
  repo: https://github.com/poole/poole

# Gems
gems:
  - jekyll-paginate
  - jekyll-gist

pages_list:       
  FistPage: '/FirstPage'
  SecondPage: '/SecondPage'

encoding: utf-8

# Choose Markdown version
markdown: kramdown

Any ideas of how I might get this to work would be much appreciated.

It looks like your local gems need to be updated. The latest release of Jekyll is currently 3.4.0.

As described in their documentation you can update Jekyll by running

gem update jekyll

Try running

gem oudated

to see if Rouge (and other gems) also need updating.
