webpack-obfuscator doesn't work with favicons-webpack-plugin

Trying to use this awesome obfuscator with my project I was getting the following error:

/home/ezze/Development/geoport/node_modules/inversify/lib/planning/metadata_reader.js:8
        var compilerGeneratedMetadata = Reflect.getMetadata(METADATA_KEY.PARAM_TYPES, constructorFunc);
                                                ^

Finally I narrowed the problem and stated that this one happens when both favicons-wepback-plugin and obfuscator plugin are used. I use favicons-webpack-plugin with html-webpack-plugin and html-webpack-template this way:

new HtmlPlugin({
    filename: path.resolve(__dirname, 'dist/index.html'),
    inject: false,
    template: htmlTemplate,
    title: 'RIPI GeoPort',
    meta: [{
        'http-equiv': 'Cache-Control',
        content: 'no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate'
    }, {
        'http-equiv': 'Pragma',
        content: 'no-cache'
    }, {
        'http-equiv': 'Expires',
        content: '0'
    }],
    appMountId: 'container',
    scripts: ['cesium/Cesium.js'],
    minify: {
        collapseWhitespace: NODE_ENV === 'production'
    }
}),
new FaviconsWepbackPlugin(
    path.resolve(__dirname, 'src/favicon.png')
)

What is the reason of this error and is it possible to solve it?

My environment: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS Node 8.9.4 Webpack 3.8.1

Hi. Try to reinstall favicons-webpack-plugin plugin. harmony-reflect just was updating to 1.6.0 version and this bug was fixed.

[sanex3339]

So, harmony-reflect has different Reflect API than reflect-metadata. https://github.com/tvcutsem/harmony-reflect/blob/master/doc/api.md

I can’t just add condition to the loading of reflect-metadata like this:

if (!global.Reflect) {
    require('reflect-metadata');
}

So, current way is to use different plugin to generate favicons.
