Bug: Installing react-fontawesome in NextJs 15 raises React version dependency error

[chris-at-lemon]

Bug description

Trying to install latest version of @fortawesome/react-fontawesome In NextJs 15.0.2 it will try and istall:

"@fortawesome/react-fontawesome": "^0.2.2",

It fails because of "unable to resolve" dependency on the React version. I need to --force install.

npm ERR! While resolving: [email protected]
npm ERR! Found: [email protected]
npm ERR! node_modules/react
npm ERR!   react@"19.0.0-rc-02c0e824-20241028" from the root project

npm ERR! peer react@">=16.3" from @fortawesome/[email protected]
npm ERR! node_modules/@fortawesome/react-fontawesome
npm ERR!   @fortawesome/react-fontawesome@"0.2.2" from the root project

Is there a version that's compatible. Should I patch it? Any other suggestions?

Thanks :)
