Can't successfully build the extension

Hi, I have met a problem when I build a extension using gulp build in root path. The output as follows:

λ gulp build

I am also getting the same issue. Did anyone find a resolution.

Ignore my last message, I had an old version, updated to the latest and everything works as expected.
