Electron tries to run Redhat-specific tools when not using Redhat

Pre-flight checklist

[x] I have read the contribution documentation for this project.
[x] I agree to follow the code of conduct that this project uses.
[x] I have searched the issue tracker for a bug that matches the one I want to file, without success.

Electron Forge version

7.6.0

Electron version

v33.2.1

Operating system

Devuan GNU/Linux 5 (daedalus), x64

Last known working Electron Forge version

No response

Expected behavior

I tried to build my code on Devuan. The exact same code builds just fine on a Mac. npm run make should produce a working binary in the out/ directory.

Actual behavior

$ npm run make

> Unicode-search@0.0.1 make
> electron-forge make

An unhandled rejection has occurred inside Forge:

Steps to reproduce

To reproduce:

clone my repo, on a Devuan machine;
make deps (to install Electron etc)
make build

Additional information

A very similar error was reported previously in #1262 and "fixed" by improving the error message to make it clear that Electron is trying to erroneously run Redhat-specific tools on a non-Redhat machine. Making the error message more clear is obviously not in fact a fix. A fix would be a code change to make it stop running Redhat stuff on any platform except Redhat, unless specifically asked to do so, just like you would only run Mac-specific tools on a Mac, and Windows-specific tools on Windows.
