Dependency errors when trying to install Vite

Ionic Framework Ionic React
1

This is the error I get when trying to install the vite react plugin:

npm WARN ERESOLVE overriding peer dependency
npm ERR! code ERESOLVE
npm ERR! ERESOLVE could not resolve

npm ERR! While resolving: @ionic-native/geolocation@5.36.0

I thought this meant that I should update to the latest ionic-native/core version so I tried:

sudo npm install @ionic-native/core@latest
I get this:

Any idea on how I should get to the right version so I can move onto getting vite?

Also, this is my package.json if it helps. Interestingly I don’t see @ionic-native/core:

@ionic-native is deprecated and was replaced with @awesome-cordova-plugins.

You should not use any @ionic-native anymore, but instead the @awesome-cordova-plugins equivalent.

And also, the versions of all the packages should match to prevent errors like yours where some package is older and expect an old version but you also have a newer package that expect a newer version and they fail to install because of that.
