Buffer Layout Type throwing error - causes Jupiter SDK to globally fail and crash app

[h4rkl]

I'm getting a resolution issue related to the "@solana/buffer-layout": "4.0.0" resolution and breaking changes to the lib.

There's an extensive thread related to this issue located at https://github.com/solana-labs/solana-program-library/issues/2534 and I've tried all the options suggested without success.

The issue first surfaces when doing a yarn install where the following warning appears: warning Resolution field "@solana/buffer-layout@4.0.0" is incompatible with requested version "@solana/buffer-layout@^3.0.0"

If I use typescript types I get the following stack trace error:

TypeError: fields must be array of Layout instances

If I switch to JS without the need for types I get the following stack trace error:
