I've just tried installing react-native-awesome-button from npm and it breaks RN (v0.47.x) because it references react-native in the Package.json file.
This is the same reason as this issue:
facebook/react-native#14302
The version of the package.json file commited by @saas-plat on Mar 5 which fixes this issue hasn't been published to npm. Is this update going to be published?
