crashed due to could not load default plugin `mozjpeg` and no images minfied

[GrassBlock1]

as titled. My problem was like #377, but I correctly import the modules needed as shown in the gulp ESM.

my gulpfile.mjs

import gulp from "gulp";
import imagemin, {mozjpeg, optipng} from "gulp-imagemin";
import debug from "gulp-debug";


gulp.task('minify-img', function() {
    return (gulp.src(['./img/*', './img/*/*', "./img/*/*/*"])
        .pipe(debug(imagemin([
            optipng({optimizationLevel: 6}),
            mozjpeg({quality: 85, progressive: true}),
        ])))
        .pipe(gulp.dest('./opt/img')))
});

gulp.task("build", gulp.series("minify-img"));

But gulp-imagemin still crashed with:

TypeError in plugin "gulp-imagemin"
Message:
    function_ is not a function

I tried to debug with gulp-debug and run again, and finally I got gulp-imagemin: Could not load default plugin mozjpeg, and no images within the folder was minfied.

Does anybody has some solution for the issue?

I'm on Windows 11.

Latest version of imagemin and gulp. Getting the same error myself. I've tried so many different combinations of code to see if it's something on my end, but this does seem to be a bug.

My error log:

it's work for me, if you are use cnpm.

in package.json, you should remove optipng-bin, gulp-imagemin then run this:

rm -rf node_modules
npm install
cnpm i optipng-bin -D
cnpm i gulp-imagemin -D

I have the same problem for Windows 10. It showed that your packeg use pngjs2 and it don't support it.

I used the last version "gulp-imagemin": "^9.0.0", and "pngquant-bin": "^8.0.1",
