I found this StackOverflow answer:

I suspect you're using node 12 and gulp 3. That combination does not work: https://github.com/gulpjs/gulp/issues/2324 ... Solution: Either upgrade to gulp 4 or downgrade to an earlier node.

So I would like to request an upgrade to gulp 4, or alternatively add some docs about supported Node versions. Thank you!

I can confirm this problem. However, upgrading to gulp 4 solves this issue but creates another issue, considering Alpaca was not written for gulp 4.

Alpaca needs to be updated, but I believe it is no longer being maintained.

Hello, i had the same problem. To resolve it, you have to downgrade node.js or do add a file npm-shrinkwrap.json in the source with the following code : { "dependencies": { "graceful-fs": { "version": "4.2.2" } } }

Then : npm install
