Should be fixed in last version

[durejagaurav]

A problem occurred configuring project ':react-native-safe-area-context'.

Failed to notify project evaluation listener. com.android.build.gradle.internal.crash.ExternalApiUsageException: org.gradle.api.GradleException: Adding a Configuration as a dependency is no longer allowed as of Gradle 8.0. KotlinJvmAndroidCompilation with name 'debug' not found.

Please help me solve this.
