Got the same
Error: Command failed: /bin/sh: autoreconf: command not found

Any idea?

[garypburton]

Same here. I think that error means autoreconf isn't installed (I am on OSX Mavericks) so I installed automake via homebrew (which includes autoreconf) and this gave a much more verbose error but still won't build.

The error:

Linux:

sudo apt-get install libtool automake autoconf nasm

OS X:

brew install libtool automake autoconf nasm

This should probably be included in the install notes.

@GCheung55, fixed in imagemin/mozjpeg-bin@0f6b5dd.

It's helpful that you added that error message, but I was still tripped up by this. I just took on someone else's project with an older version of the module, so I didn't see the error. It would be nice if you put this dependency in the readme.
