Mozjpeg test fails and then compilation fails

See original GitHub issue

Just updated to v3 and during installation I got:

mozjpeg@4.1.1 postinstall /node_modules/mozjpeg
> node lib/install.js

  ⚠ The `/node_modules/mozjpeg/vendor/cjpeg` binary doesn't seem to work correctly
  ⚠ mozjpeg pre-build test failed
  ℹ compiling from source
  ✖ Error: autoreconf -fiv && ./configure --disable-shared --prefix="/node_modules/mozjpeg/vendor" --bindir="/node_modules/mozjpeg/vendor" --libdir="/node_modules/mozjpeg/vendor" && make --jobs=8 && make install --jobs=8
Command failed: /bin/sh -c autoreconf -fiv

I was able to get it working. This line will get it to build from source: brew install libtool automake autoconf nasm (from Kevva) … and then additionally installing libpng will fix some future headaches … brew install libpng (from AndyKenward)

I’m running MacOS Sierra 10.12.2 and was running into many of the same problems listed in similar threads. The mozjpeg pre-build test failed but I was able to build from source afterwards.

Hi there The solution you provided were not enough in my case, I first had to correct the brew installation itself. For posterity, and because this is one of the first issues that arises when googling, here are the steps that worked for me. I started from the brew FAQ “upgrading MacOS”, http://docs.brew.sh/Common-Issues.html#upgrading-macos

update XCode, run it, it will proceed to a few more installation
brew update (updates brew itself)
brew upgrade (upgrades all the packages)
npm uninstall image-webpack-loader and npm install image-webpack-loader

hope this helps 😃
