Package.json for eslint-config-react-app on NPM is incorrect

[Svish]

Describe the bug

The package.json file for eslint-config-react-app differs between NPM and Git for one peer dependency:

• Git: "eslint-plugin-react-hooks": "1.x || 2.x || 3.x || 4.x"
• Npm: "eslint-plugin-react-hooks": "1.x || 2.x"

Both has "version": "5.2.1", and everything else matches, except for this one peer dependency. 😕

Steps to reproduce

1. Inspect package.json on git:
   ✔ "version": "5.2.1"
   ✔ "eslint-plugin-react-hooks": "1.x || 2.x || 3.x || 4.x"
2. Run npm pack eslint-config-react-app
3. Inspect the package.json within the downloaded tgz package:
   ✔ "version": "5.2.1"
   ❌ "eslint-plugin-react-hooks": "1.x || 2.x"

Expected behavior

Would expect the acceptable versions of "eslint-plugin-react-hooks" to be the same in both places.

Actual behavior

Acceptable versions do not match. Means npm gives me a warning when I try to upgrade eslint-plugin-react-hooks to its latest version, 4.x:

> npm install eslint-plugin-react-hooks@4
npm WARN eslint-config-react-app@5.2.1 requires a peer of eslint-plugin-react-hooks@1.x || 2.x but none is installed. You must install peer dependencies yourself.

+ eslint-plugin-react-hooks@4.0.1

Just noticed the package.json downloaded from Npm includes "gitHead": "d2f813f8897ffcd2f0b0d2da75d0c44924c92f4d", and checking the package.json for that, it is indeed different than master, yet both says they are "version": "5.2.1".

Confusing and annoying.

As far as I know, it's still an issue, stale bot.

I just came with the same issue while trying to create a React App with create-react-app:

➜ npx create-react-app <project-name>

Still an issue. And seems to be "worse" too. The whole peerDependencies section seems to be incorrect.

From GitHub repo:

{
  "peerDependencies": {
    "@typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin": "^3.0.0",
    "@typescript-eslint/parser": "^3.0.0",
    "babel-eslint": "^10.0.0",
    "eslint": "^7.0.0",
    "eslint-plugin-flowtype": "^5.0.0",
    "eslint-plugin-import": "^2.21.1",
    "eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y": "^6.3.0",
    "eslint-plugin-react": "^7.20.0",
    "eslint-plugin-react-hooks": "^4.0.1"
  },
}

From NPM via npm pack eslint-config-react-app:

{
  "peerDependencies": {
    "@typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin": "2.x",
    "@typescript-eslint/parser": "2.x",
    "babel-eslint": "10.x",
    "eslint": "6.x",
    "eslint-plugin-flowtype": "3.x || 4.x",
    "eslint-plugin-import": "2.x",
    "eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y": "6.x",
    "eslint-plugin-react": "7.x",
    "eslint-plugin-react-hooks": "1.x || 2.x"
  },
}

I really hope we'll see a new npm publish in a reasonable time.

Dear mr. Stale

This projects has not had any new releases since march, so this issue has not been fixed. Please do not close until it has been.

Humbly,
Me

Thank you, most gracious mr. Stale.
