Hi, I was watching your course at udacity about promise, and the xhr-start branch I get this error when I try to serve with gulp.

• vinyl version 0.5.3
• nodejs version 6.3.1
• npm version 3.10.3

I have the same error, and i just added line
"vinyl": "0.3.0",
in package.json file, and run
npm install

[elafrikano]

@bazgyrt your solution did not work for me! :(

[forbaz]

@elafrikano try this
npm install vinyl@0.3.0 --save-dev

[elafrikano]

@bazgyrt thanks you very much, it's worked!

[framled]

I will try this solution at weekend.

alias npm-exec='PATH=$(npm bin):$PATH'
npm-exec gulp serve

edit: misread your issue,
assumed gulp was installed locally.

I had a different problem, related to svgo.yml file.
This worked for me: svg/svgo#622
