When using LoginButton to request 'publish_pages' permission, the screen goes blank rather than starting the Permission Request Flow. The problem does not happen with 'publish_to_groups'. It also occurs with 'manage_pages'.
To Reproduce
Simply run the react-native-fbsdk example app with a request for 'publish_pages' permission when rendering the LoginButton. The app asks for a Facebook email and password. Provide them and hit "Log In". A blank screen appears.
With 'publish_to_groups', the next screen warns that the app needs Facebook Review and that some permissions have not been approved for use by Facebook. I hit "Continue" and the permissions are granted. (I am admin of both the group and the app).
The login I am using is the admin for the app and admin for the Page, so I am thinking that that is not the problem. Regardless, a blank screen does not seem right.
Expected Behavior
I would expect the Permission Request Flow to pop up so the user can approve giving the app the 'publish_pages' permission.
Code Example
// The following code is identical to the example App.js, except the LoginButton has a permissions param
// set to 'publish_pages'. Note that if the requested permission is 'publish_to_groups' there is no problem.
import React, {Component} from 'react';
import {Alert, StyleSheet, Text, TouchableHighlight, View} from 'react-native';
import {LoginButton, ShareDialog} from 'react-native-fbsdk';
