Npm build fails in CentOS 5.11 while compiling optipng

See original GitHub issue

I am trying to install grunt-contrib-imagemin 0.9.1. I am getting the following error:

> node lib/install.js


     warn : The `optipng` binary doesn't seem to work correctly
     warn : optipng pre-build test failed
     info : compiling from source
    error : Error: Command failed: 
    at ChildProcess.exithandler (child_process.js:637:15)
    at ChildProcess.EventEmitter.emit (events.js:98:17)
    at maybeClose (child_process.js:743:16)
    at Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (child_process.js:810:5)

The following are the enviroment details:

OS: CentOS 5.11
node version: v0.10.26
npm version: 2.1.7

Previously I had tried with some older version of the grunt package, and it failed in installing gifsicle too. But after updating to 0.9.1 those issues got solved.

Please show me a way out, I am stuck with this. Thanks a lot in advance.

To people facing this problem, check if you have libpng-dev (or libpng-devel depending on Linux distro) installed on your system.
