Thank you very much for reporting this!

Are you available to test in your Win environment so that we can sort this out? Happy to look into it but I don't have ready access to reproduce this at the moment.

@chrissimpkins yeah let me know what you need me to do

It's not a Windows issue. I've just got the same thing on macOS:

I have fixed this issue by installing a missing pngquant dependency "pkg-config". Using tips from here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23202146/cannot-find-pkg-config-error

@jonatino , you can try to debug the source of the problem by going to /home/jonathan/pngquant and running "make". This will show you what might be wrong with the build process.

I also got this issue on WSL - I was able to fix it by installing/fixing my $PATH for g++
