cannot find symbol BuildConfig.VERSION_NAME symbol: variable VERSION_NAME location: class BuildConfig
Upgrading packages did not fix issue, the problem was different
I tweaked this file to make this package running
https://github.com/invertase/react-native-firebase/blob/master/packages/app/android/src/reactnative/java/io/invertase/firebase/app/ReactNativeFirebaseAppRegistrar.java
public class ReactNativeFirebaseAppRegistrar implements ComponentRegistrar {
  @Override
  public List<Component<?>> getComponents() {
    return Collections.singletonList(
      LibraryVersionComponent.create(
        "react-native-firebase",
		BuildConfig.VERSION_NAME
		"7.1.4" // package.json version
      )
    );
  }
}
