Error installing jimp, 'node-zlib-backport error'

[kobimx]

So, for some reason, out of the blue my nodejs refuses to work as it should. when i run npm insall jimp i get a node-gyp error on the module node-zlib-backport used by the dependency pngjs. it returns an error when compiling the source giving a `Users/mirko/.node-gyp/5.11.0/include/node/node_internals.h:6:10: fatal error: 'util-inl.h' file not found

include "util-inl.h"` error.

Heres the (almost) full terminal log. i know this might not be jimp's problem but i wonder if anyone experienced it before:

Thanks! Looks like a problem with the latest version of pngjs. The previous version is still good. I'll do an emergency release tonight.

[malexdev]

@oliver-moran getting this as well, thanks so much for the quick response! 😀

[kobimx]

Yeah, thanks for the super quick response @oliver-moran, hope it will not cause anymore problems

[oliver-moran]

OK. I did an emergency release just now. (Even though it broke the browserify version by doing so.)

Can you guys check that all is OK again? Thanks.

Non-transpiled arrow function in https://github.com/oliver-moran/jimp/blob/a6a4bfad75dec7595c8f9e05e717e00dd174c4b7/index.js#L1169

@lukeapage just updated pngjs to 2.3.1, which should fix our issue

[lukeapage]

Sorry about this - it is a bug in npm - I should be able to add an optional dependency without breaking peoples builds, but nevermind, the dependency is removed.

It stopped working with my nodejs version. (I think node compatability is the reason) my nodejs version is 0.12.9. It gives the error with histogram method (ln 1169) in index.js for => notation.
Do we have a version which can work with node 0.12.9?

[malexdev]

@oliver-moran Works perfectly on Node 5.11 for me. Thanks again!

[rjw209]

@oliver-moran per @manikmi and my comment above, there's an ES6 arrow function that breaks compatibility with older versions of node. @Igor1201 PR#130 includes a fix for this, but not sure when you plan to merge/release that work.

[comigor]

we should just fix this threading arrow problem on master, because my PR is supposed to do other things as well

[oliver-moran]

Just checking, any of these issues still presenting?

[malexdev]

Ever since I upgraded the project that uses this to node 5.11 I haven't been having any issues.
