Apple Silicon M1 builds fail with incorrect path to libpng libraries

[arrrgi]

I'm reporting an issue on an M1 without Rosetta 2.

Environment:

• Node version: v16.4.0
• MacOS version: 11.4
• libpng version: 1.6.37

Reproduce issue:

First, without installing a number of pre-requisites I get the following after running yarn add imagemin-mozjpeg in an empty project:

error /Users/rgillson/Desktop/Projects/Repos/Private/Web/test/node_modules/mozjpeg: Command failed.
Exit code: 1
Command: node lib/install.js
Arguments:
Directory: /Users/rgillson/Desktop/Projects/Repos/Private/Web/test/node_modules/mozjpeg
Output:

/bin/sh: autoreconf: command not found


    at /Users/rgillson/Desktop/Projects/Repos/Private/Web/test/node_modules/bin-build/node_modules/execa/index.js:231:11

After running brew install automake autoconf libtool m4 nasm libpng pkg-config and attempting again, yarnpkg now exits with:

Finally, I have confirmed the library is symlinked at /opt/homebrew/lib/libpng16.a to /opt/homebrew/Cellar/libpng/1.6.37/lib/libpng16.a.

mozjpeg-bin/lib/install.js

Line 19 in 726d684

cfgExtras = 'libpng_LIBS=\'/usr/local/lib/libpng16.a -lz\' --enable-static';

It seems the location is hardcoded based on previous install location of libpng before Homebrew moved everything under /opt/homebrew. I think a more futureproof implementation of the build would be to find where the relevant libraries are installed rather than depending on them being in a specific location.

Workaround

For now, it was enough to: sudo ln -s /opt/homebrew/Cellar/libpng/1.6.37/lib/libpng16.a libpng16.a which resulted in a successful package install

Unable to submit a PR for this until actions/runner-images#2187 is resolved. No timeline for support of this from GitHub yet.

Any other CI's providing Apple Silicon shared runners yet?

Thanks @arrrgi! I came across this issue on my M1 Mac Mini Big Sur version 11.4. I am using NVM to manage different Node versions - currently running Node 16.4.2. I actually used the following:

sudo ln -s /opt/homebrew/Cellar/libpng/1.6.37/lib/libpng16.a /usr/local/lib/libpng16.a

This seems to work for the moment. Hopefully a more future proof solution will be approved.

To run @jessethach's command, remember to replace 1.6.37 with your version and sudo mkdir /usr/local/lib if it doesn't exist.

Thanks, this solves an issue on masOS Ventura 13.3!

[MateuszKrawczuk]

Issue should be fixed with #80. Can anyone check this on M1 or M2 macs?

Seems like working fine on M1 Pro, Mac OS Ventura 13.4.1 (22F82)

[aboyton]

Now that this has merged, what do I need to do to install this? Do I need to wait for a new release?

[imjeen]

getting the similar error.

• step1: look my libpng version brew list --versions libpng , and it is 1.6.44
• steip2: sudo ln -s /opt/homebrew/Cellar/libpng/1.6.44/lib/libpng16.a /usr/local/lib/libpng16.a

successfully! it's ok!
