Uncaught Error: ViewPropTypes has been removed from React Native

[danjayrose]

• iOS or Android? Both
• Expo or regular React Native? React Native
• React Native Version: 0.69.4
• react-native-activity-feed@1.1.1
• getstream@7.2.11

Describe the bug
When installing with the latest React Native version this package causes an uncaught error as it uses ViewPropTypes which have been deprecated by React Native.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create new project with react native
2. Install react-native-activity-feed@1.1.1 and import in the code

Expected behavior
As per recommendation in facebook/react-native#33557 (comment) if the import is updated to use deprecated-react-native-prop-types it should work

LOL was expecting to find this question at the top of the issue. If they fix this, great, but I don't expect them to do that any time soon, maybe ever.

Yes I also thought the same as it seems that this isn't maintained anymore. To resolve the issue for my project I use patch-package to resolve the problem that seems to originate from react-native-keyboard-spacer.

@danjayrose By any chance, can I get a copy of that patch-package?

Sorry for the late reply, I've been on holiday. I've attached the patch file, just rename the file extension from .txt to .patch and put it in your patches folder
