More Info

It is related to uilib-native library, if I apply the patch from that #3805 it works without any error, so when we can expect it to be merged into uilib-native lib?

Environment

• React Native version: 0.84.1 (new arch enabled, hermes enabled)
• React Native UI Lib version: 8.3.4 (latest)
• uilib-native: 5.0.1 (latest)

Affected platforms

• Android

A hard truth I've found in the last 4 years is that when in doubt, if there is a build error in the react-native world, it's the fault of react-native-ui-lib or a library that they maintain...
