I’ve found that the problem can be temporarily fixed by installing fsevents@1.2.9 as a top level dependency. While this doesn’t fix the compilation error, 1.2.9 is the most recent version to have a distributed binary for macOS, so using that will cause jest and other dependencies that require fsevents v1 to use the pre-compiled version.

@TLBSoftware Thanks!

I was a little wary of moving that whole directory, so I did this and finally…FINALLY…these errors are gone (was making me thing every single npm install was failed even though it technically worked):

sudo mkdir /usr/local/include_old
sudo mv /usr/local/include/block.h /usr/local/include_old/block.h

@qianzhangsheng what is the official solution to this issue?

I get same error when I copy Applications from one Macbook to another , maybe the copy that overlay the “/usr/local/include” dir , so move it and use global librarys . you can execute : sudo mv /usr/local/include /usr/local/include_old

and try again

it’s a transitive dependency of webpack so…you should tell these guys that 😉 https://github.com/webpack/watchpack/issues/130

edit: err that is literally your issue. i guess you already told them

does it work when you rm -rf node_modules and npm i?

In case it helps others, I was able to resolve this by removing existing command line tools then re-installing: https://discuss.codecademy.com/t/installation-error-create-react-app/458364/6
