Make React a peerDependency instead of a dependency? about react-bootstrap-typeahead HOT 6 CLOSED

See also: https://github.com/react-bootstrap/react-bootstrap/blob/master/package.json which does not list react as a dependency, but rather as a dev-dependancy

Did you install with npm or are you using the UMD version? If using npm, are all your modules installed with that or are you also using other package managers, like bower?

I used npm only.
the package.json

"dependencies": {
    "babel-loader": "^6.2.4",
    "babel-preset-es2015": "^6.6.0",
    "babel-preset-react": "^6.5.0",
    "react": "^15.0.2",
    "react-bootstrap": "^0.29.3",
    "react-bootstrap-typeahead": "^0.4.0",
    "react-dom": "^15.0.2",
    "style-loader": "^0.13.1",
    "urijs": "^1.18.0",
    "webpack": "^1.13.0"
  },

Just using react-bootstrap worked fine.

My guess is that this is happening because react-bootstrap-typeahead has React 14.x as a dependency while your package has 15.x, so 2 versions of React are being installed.

See https://nodejs.org/en/blog/npm/peer-dependencies/

Two versions of react are being installed, and the correct solution is to use peerDependency which means: I need this version of react, but don't install a seperate copy from that already used.

This has been updated in v0.5.0, let me know if you continue to experience problems.
