First thing we run into too.
Maybe having the error say you should probably upgrade?

from use-react-router.

@sahanay I did a similar thing with packages that required React Hooks by saying "upgrade to 16.7," but then Facebook published 16.7 (non-alpha) without including hooks. Users then complained that they had upgraded to 16.7 but were still getting the error saying to upgrade. Since the exposure of Context appears to be alpha in react-router, much like Hooks in React, I am afraid that by publishing a version number in the package itself will lead to a similar problem. [email protected] may come out and suddenly Context is no longer exposed or exposed under a different variable name, and users will get an unhelpful error asking them to upgrade, despite them already using @latest.

It's kind of lose-lose. I am open to a more informative error message, but I am at a loss for what the error message should be.

Closing this now that react-router has officialized its context-supported release as 5.0+.
