I'm trying to deploy my site on Netlify, and the gatsby build command works perfectly fine on my system. But when I run in on Netlify, I run into the issue shown below.
Unhandled rejection: cannot find ffprobe seems to be the issue. I think it's because I have ffmpeg installed on my system (macOS) but there is no installation procedure during the build process in Netlify. Can somebody please guide me as to what I can do to fix this?

My gatsby-config.js file is as follows:
module.exports = {
siteMetadata: {
title: "#######",
author: "#######"
},
plugins: [
"gatsby-plugin-sass",
{
resolve: "gatsby-source-filesystem",
options: {
name: "images",
path: `${__dirname}/src/images`
}
},
"gatsby-transformer-sharp",
"gatsby-plugin-sharp",
"gatsby-transformer-ffmpeg",
"gatsby-plugin-ffmpeg"
]
}
Netlify's build image runs Ubuntu, so you can probably install ffmpeg with the following command:
apt-get install ffmpeg
You can prepend this script to your Netlify build command, i.e
apt-get install ffmpeg && npm run build
or stick it as a new script in your package.json.
