Using mozjpeg to compress pictures will result in errors!

[JohnApache]

• Node Version: 11.15.0
• Imagemin Version: 7.0.1
• Gulp-Imagemin Version: 7.0.0
  Imagemin 7.0.0 ^ compress JPEG pictures with mozjpeg。
  When I use mozjpeg to compress JPEG images, the tool throws an exception. But pictures in other formats are normally compressed.

import imagemin from 'gulp-imagemin';
const ImageTask = () => {
    return src(['src/images/*.{png,jpg,jpeg,svg,gif}'])
            .pipe(imagemin(
                [
                    imagemin.gifsicle({
                        interlaced: true,
                        optimizationLevel: 3,
                    }),
                    imagemin.mozjpeg({
                        quality: 75,
                        progressive: true
                    }),
                    imagemin.optipng({ optimizationLevel: 5}),
                    imagemin.svgo(),
                ], {
                    silent: false
                }
            ))
            .pipe(dest('dist/images'))
}

The details of the error are as follows

Message:
    spawn /Users/cuijianwei/WebstormProjects/testproject/gulp-demo/node_modules/mozjpeg/vendor/cjpeg ENOENT

    errno: ENOENT

I try to use mozjpeg command directly，like this

npx mozjpeg --help

Exception will still be thrown.

spawn /Users/cuijianwei/WebstormProjects/testproject/gulp-demo/node_modules/mozjpeg/vendor/cjpeg ENOENT

When I reduce imagemin to 6.2.0，Imagemin 6.2.0 compress JPEG pictures with jpegtran, and there's no problem with jpegtran.

I hope this problem can be solved.

@JohnApache - I'm experiencing this same issue. What was your final resolution? Would you mind sharing how its been working out over the last year?

In my case, the problem occurred after I upgrade npm to latest version(7.10.0). At first, I run rm -rf node_modules && npm install but it does't work at all.....

Then I try to check the mozjpeg folder and I found there was no vender/cjpeg. So I try to install packages whith yarn install and at last it works

For more details: npm/cli#1905 npm/cli#3100

I've resolved this problem by fixing the error while install gulp-imageimge.
I reinstalled gulp-imageimge, and found that the mozjpeg had been installed but couldn't be compiled well. And then the installation passed through quickly, so that you might not take notice of the error message.
The error message to me was a lib named 'nasm' was missing. I installed it on my Linux OS. Then it can be reinstalled well.
npm version: 6.14

This seems to be an error with npm >= 7, we were able to get past this with npm install -g npm@6 although really not sure why
