Answer 1

This an issue with npm. You can follow the issue here .

I suggest you to use yarn or a more stable version of npm. Yarn is more easy to use with react-native since it even links the library after the instillation.

To solve the current problem, remove node_modules folder and package-lock.json and if there is yarn.lock file. Then run the command yarn if you are using yarn or npm install .

Answer 2

If the 'react-native' module has version 0.4 and up, than you should update the 'react-native-vector-icons' module version to 4.0. You can update using the following command

npm install --save react-native-vector-icons@4.0
