Error: spawn EPERM when installing gifsicle

[RicoVorihery]

Good day,
can someone help me about this error please?

I'm seeing a similar error on OSX and Linux. Looks like for some reason node lib/install.js isn't working.

npm install imagemin-gifsicle
npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: cross-spawn no longer requires a build toolchain, use it instead!

> [email protected] postinstall /Users/eric/Desktop/test/node_modules/gifsicle
> node lib/install.js

    throw err;
    ^

I bet this is the same as imagemin/pngquant-bin#53 and related to https://www.npmjs.com/package/gulp-sourcemaps "published an hour ago"

[jasonm]

I think this is upstream gulp-sourcemaps/gulp-sourcemaps#238

[ekryski]

Yup it's looking like it. Thanks @jasonm

[jasonm]

Verified that adding + "gulp-sourcemaps": "1.7.1", to package.json fixes the issue for me

[eddiemonge]

All the comments after the first are for something different than the OP

[jasonm]

@eddiemonge is right, I misread. @ekryski and I share an issue but it appears to be different from this.

hi @RicoVorihery I am having a similar issue to you, did you find a work around or fix?

[majabee]

I have the same problem [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] throw errors in installation process. Couldn't execute the ... binary. Make sure it has the right permissions.

I have the same problem!
