not gonna lie this is driving me nuts merged a dependency update PR and now Vite refuses to build:

$ npm install
npm ERR! code ERESOLVE
npm ERR! ERESOLVE unable to resolve dependency tree
npm ERR!
npm ERR! While resolving: my-dashboard@0.1.0
npm ERR! Found: react@19.x
npm ERR! node_modules/react
npm ERR! react@"^19" from the root project
npm ERR!
npm ERR! Could not resolve dependency:
npm ERR! peer react@"^17 || ^18" from some-chart-lib@x
npm ERR!
npm ERR! Fix the upstream dependency conflict, or retry
npm ERR! this command with --force or --legacy-peer-deps
the error is Cannot find module after a fresh clone 馃う the PR looked harmless, a few version bumps. id rather understand the cause than blindly revert or slap a flag on it. whats the right way to read this error and fix it properly? happy to share more of teh log if someone tells me which lines matter. any ideas??
