anthonyaam · 2018-03-16T15:44:10Z

I have the same problem beginning yesterday.

danherd · 2018-03-16T15:46:37Z

Has anyone got a temporary fix for this?

anthonyaam · 2018-03-16T16:27:52Z

@danherd use pngquant-bin 3.1.1 for now.

danherd · 2018-03-16T16:32:00Z

@anthonyaam alas, this package is a dependency of a dependency of a dependency... and the version being used is not something I can control!

anthonyaam · 2018-03-16T16:36:46Z

@danherd if you have someone on your project that hasn't run npm update yet you could have them check in a package-lock.json file that references pngquant-bin 3.1.1.

If that's not an option then your situation becomes more difficult...I think you'll have to submit PRs to update the dependencies you're importing or just wait for this root issue to be resolved...

danherd · 2018-03-16T16:42:36Z

@anthonyaam yeah I think I can probably wait it out - funnily enough, even with this error being displayed on yarn install --production, all my assets seem to build OK anyway!

wawanopoulos · 2018-03-16T19:44:06Z

Could you please provide a quick fix for this issue ? It's very boring..

abetwothree · 2018-03-16T20:41:37Z

The issue seems to be this commit added a few days ago. It stops npm if the build fails:
a518db6

And yes, I am also having this issue.

wawanopoulos · 2018-03-16T20:49:44Z

@skatedieu did you find any workaround? Or we need to waot a fix?

abetwothree · 2018-03-16T20:53:01Z

I don't have a workaround, unfortunately.

We have to either just wait or submit a pull request removing this line of code.

sroy19 · 2018-03-16T21:09:01Z

I had the same issue but it is resolved by first installing libpng-dev
Need to follow the following steps:
sudo apt-get install libpng-dev
and then run
npm install -g pngquant-bin

that fixed the issue for me.

@anthonyaam no need to go to old versions for pngquant-bin

abetwothree · 2018-03-16T21:24:29Z

@sroy19 I ran that in my server and got a message that no package libpng-dev is available. :/

Also, my system has libpng installed as well.

wawanopoulos · 2018-03-16T22:07:33Z

@sroy19 This fix doesn't work for me. I always get this error when deploying my app..

drzippie · 2018-03-17T00:18:38Z

To build pngquant binary you need to have installed make.
apt-get install make
(or similar)
Found viewing install.js
[...]

binBuild.url('http://pngquant.org/pngquant-2.10.1-src.tar.gz', [
			'rm ./INSTALL',
			`./configure --prefix="${bin.dest()}"`,
			`make install BINPREFIX="${bin.dest()}"`

[..]

wawanopoulos · 2018-03-17T21:50:48Z

@sro19 which version of libpng-dev did you install?

velu76 · 2018-03-18T04:48:46Z

I got similiar error for Laravel in Ubuntu 17.10. I used @sory19 method as below:

I had the same issue but it is resolved by first installing libpng-dev
Need to follow the following steps:
sudo apt-get install libpng-dev
and then run
npm install -g pngquant-bin

Still had same error. This is what I did.

Removed the "node_modules" folder: sudo rm -rf node_modules
Re-ran npm install

And it worked after that.

wawanopoulos · 2018-03-18T08:21:37Z

@velu76 Which version of libpng-dev did you install ?

abetwothree · 2018-03-18T18:44:56Z

I am on CentOS and there is no libpng-dev package to install with yum. I have installed libpng. But this package wants libpng-dev and will not install without it.

Why would it seem like a good idea to stop people from being able to deploy just because a package 5 dependencies down isn't fully working?

This line is causing many people to stop from being able to deploy. (see this issue imagemin#78) Can this be changed to determine whether libpng-dev can be installed on the system and stop the process if it can be installed with a warning to the user to install libpng-dev, else just continue on installing npm packages? It seems that systems with a commad of apt-get have access to libpgn-dev. This line is literally stopping the deployment of apps on systems where libpng-dev cannot be installed. I am on CentOS and there is no libpng-dev package for that system. Thank you!

abetwothree · 2018-03-18T19:02:05Z

I made a pull request commenting that line out and adding notes for the npm install exit to be more discretionary to only environments for systems that can have libpgn-dev and just let other systems continue installing npm packages.

#79

Hopefully we get an answer soon.

velu76 · 2018-03-19T05:39:35Z

@wawanopoulos,

I tried installing pngquant-bin 3.1.1 but it too ended up in the error. Therefore, as mentioned earlier, I removed the node_modules folder and reinstalled everything from scratch.

ivanzhang · 2019-08-08T02:08:03Z

I was running on an Ubuntu 18.04LTS machine and had this issue.
What happened is that a package got updated and the pngquant dependant - in my case vue-boostrap - needed the following packages in order to build:

gcc;

make;

libpng-dev.

So, apt-get install -y gcc make libpng-dev might do the trick. It worked for me. Then again, I also cleaned my system cache, composer vendors and npm node_modules.

this reply did the trick for ubuntu 19

Thank u!! this works perfect!!!!

bradley-varol · 2019-10-08T10:46:46Z

The most upvoted answer here is from over a year ago so I'd like to confirm that on Ubuntu 19, the following worked for me:

sudo apt install libpng-dev
rm -rf node_modules/
yarn install

Nimish-Paranjape · 2019-10-17T08:22:22Z

I don't understand npm and npm doesn't understand versioning. For anyone else struggling, my "fix" was to remove our 'image-webpack-loader' package dependency (which ultimately removed transitive dependency to imagemin-pngquant and pngquant-bin).

yes...this works...thanks...was stuck on this for 2 days....

alexandresebrao · 2019-11-06T22:18:27Z

Did a fresh install on Fedora 31, got that problem here is the fix:

dnf install @development-tools libpng libpng-devel

alfa-dev · 2019-12-29T23:57:11Z

You have to install manually.

On linux:

apt-get install libpng-dev -y --no-install-recommends

galaxydirector · 2020-01-23T18:58:39Z

I have my Solution wowww it has been fixed!!!!! Ubuntu 15.0

npm install, which fails
sudo rm -rf node_modules
npm update
npm audit fix (this is the key step,. I think it fixes the dependency issue)
yarn install/whatever you wanna run

Bingo!!!

ryancwalsh · 2020-02-11T19:09:18Z

For me, "pngquant-bin" was a dependency only because of laravel-mix. Updating to laravel-mix 5.0 fixed it for me: https:/JeffreyWay/laravel-mix/releases

I finally fixed this issue by just installing these packages:

120dev · 2020-02-19T21:35:02Z

@sroy19 I ran that in my server and got a message that no package libpng-dev is available. :/

under fedora : sudo dnf install libpng-devel

HydraOrc · 2020-04-01T10:15:08Z

On Ubuntu you can try to fix it with apt-get install -y libpango1.0-dev command, worked for older node v6

fyupanquia · 2020-04-04T16:09:08Z

You have to install manually.

On linux:

Works for me

beatrizsmerino · 2020-08-18T21:24:59Z

I have had the same problem on Windows and I have solved it like this:

I have an ERROR in the npm package [email protected] when I install and use it on Windows but on MAC this version is working.

--------------------
You must install additional module [npm install pngquant-bin --save]!
It does not work properly on some OS! If you will get an error try use other module.
--------------------

I fixed this error by installing a older version npm package [email protected]. Any other version between 6.0.0 - 3.1.1 is not working.

npm uninstall  --save-dev pngquant-bin
pm install --save dev [email protected]

But on Ubuntu I could not fix it

Error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.

This commands not working for me

apt-get install -y gcc make libpng-dev
apt-get install libpng-dev -y --no-install-recommends

sudo apt install libpng-dev

sambacha · 2020-10-02T21:30:44Z

Ubuntu fixes after xenial:

https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-security/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+build/15108504

download and install libpng12-0_1.2.54-1ubuntu1.1_amd64.deb

for Ubuntu r 19.04, and after the /lib directory is a symlink to /usr/lib (this was not the case with Ubuntu 18.04 and older), and this causes the libpng12-0 installation to fail, since this package tries to create a link from/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpng12.so.0 to /usr/lib which is already a symlink. So the DEB had to be repacked to get it to work on newer Ubuntu versions.

The host node_modules folder is copied in the docker build context, you should ignore the folder using .dockerignore

node_modules

Like #78 (comment), please make sure to install prerequisites before installing this package.

How does this work for aws lambda? It doesn't work on my local machine or the lambda instance.

yuezk · 2023-04-21T01:07:51Z

Per the above discussion, gcc and make are required. And this command worked for me.

sudo apt-get install -y gcc make libpng-dev

vipulrawat · 2023-06-09T13:16:07Z

This issue seems to resurrect every 6 to 8 months. Currently, it is happening on aws codebuilds.

u3u · 2023-07-04T10:22:55Z

If someone encounters the MaxRedirectsError: pngquant failed to build, make sure that libpng-dev is installed error, they can manually modify the installation script file and change the installation URL to https to resolve it.
