config-plugins Error during "Run expo doctor"

[gollyjer]

I don’t have a dependency on @config-plugins but when expo doctor runs it throws the following error.

Should I add config-plugins^4.1.5 to my dependencies?

[gollyjer]

Adding this to package.json seems to have worked. Not sure when I should remove it though.

"resolutions": {
  "@expo/config-plugins": "^4.1.0"
},

[notbrent]

in the warning message notice that it suggests using npm why - this command will let you know which package you are using that brings in an old version of the config plugins package

yeah @notbrent, the same thing here since a few days ago (but I didn’t give importance to it),

I did a run of yarn why:

and if now I do the run for @expo/config (which is the one that 5.0.0 is pointing to) I have the following result:

it would appear that the @expo/config-plugins@5.0.0 version is used by the expo-constants and expo-updates

[notbrent]

i can’t reproduce this. i made a new project and ran expo install expo-constants expo-updates and then cleared yarn.lock and node_modules and installed again and i don’t get @expo/config-plugins@5.0.0. can you share a minimal reproducible example?

[outatime]

@notbrent I reinstalled all my dependencies and removed the yarn.lock and it’s working right now, over the weekend I had done it several times, and it hadn’t worked, possibly some dependency was causing problems, thanks
