How to fix 'fs: re-evaluating native module sources is not supported' - graceful-fs

I had this problem and I was able to fix this by updating npm

sudo npm update -g npm

Before the update, the result of npm info graceful-fs | grep 'version:' was:

version: '3.3.12'

After the update the result is:

version: '3.9.3'

Type npm list graceful-fs and you will see which versions of graceful-fs are currently installed.

In my case I got:

npm list graceful-fs

As you can see gulp deep down depends on a very old version. Unfortunately, I can't update that myself using npm update graceful-fs. gulp would need to update their dependencies. So if you have a case like this you are out of luck. But you may open an issue for the project with the old dependency - i.e. gulp.

Solved this bug with reinstall gulp

npm uninstall gulp
npm install gulp
