ERROR: Cannot assign to import "useEffectEvent" when importing useKeyPress hook

[theasteve]

Hi there, I'm currently getting the following error when compiling with Vite.js

  VITE v4.3.9  ready in 567 ms

  ➜  Local:   http://localhost:3036/vite-dev/

✘ [ERROR] Cannot assign to import "useEffectEvent"

        ╵       ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Imports are immutable in JavaScript. To modify the value of this import, you must export a setter
  function in the imported file (e.g. "setUseEffectEvent") and then import and call that function
  here instead.

Node.js v19.8.1

This is when I tried to install the useKeyPress. It seems as read from the error message

Imports are immutable in JavaScript. To modify the value of this import, you must export a setter
function in the imported file (e.g. "setUseEffectEvent") and then import and call that function
here instead.

Which is coming from the index.js files in the node_modules/@uidotdev/usehooks/index.js

import * as React from "react";

React.useEffectEvent = React.experimental_useEffectEvent;

However, no setter function was provided in the docs. Any idea how I can solve?
