I’m using macOS Sonoma v14.4.1 and when I tried to install imagemin-mozjpeg using the following command:

npm i imagemin-mozjpeg

At first I got some errors like npm ERR! /bin/sh: autoreconf: command not found so I installed autoconf along with other packages using brew

brew install autoconf automake libtool

Then I got another error that “The “m4″ command requires the command line developer tools.” so I installed the command line developer tools.

But after that I got the below bunch of errors & I don’t know how to fix them in order to install the npm package imagemin-mozjpeg successfully

Is there maybe some prerequisite packages / tools that I need to install first?
