`expo install` installs incorrect versions of dependencies

I followed the instructions here to get React Navigation setup.

However, after executing expo install react-native-gesture-handler react-native-reanimated react-native-screens react-native-safe-area-context @react-native-community/masked-view I get the following warnings when I execute npm run ios:

Some of your project's dependencies are not compatible with currently installed expo package version:
 - react-native-reanimated - expected version range: ~1.7.0 - actual version installed: ^1.9.0
 - react-native-safe-area-context - expected version range: 0.7.3 - actual version installed: ^3.0.2
 - @react-native-community/masked-view - expected version range: 0.1.6 - actual version installed: ^0.1.10
Your project may not work correctly until you install the correct versions of the packages.
To install the correct versions of these packages, please run: expo install [package-name ...]

And I get the following errors:

hey @bsgbryan - please refer to this video that demonstrates expo install as copied from the react navigation documentation working as expected on a new project: https://streamable.com/4unmt1.

now refer to this video that demonstrates expo install on a bare project (notice that i run ls ios and ls android to show you that they exist), and see that it does not pick any specific versions and installs the latest instead, which is what you are observing: https://streamable.com/hz7qsb

i think if you re-read the response i gave above and try to remain objective while doing so you will see that i am just trying to gather information to be able to help you. keep in mind that we offer no guaranteed response window to free users of this tool. we do our best to get back to people as soon as we can, but it’s not always possible. if you would like professional support we do offer that, but it’s not free: https://expo.io/support

additionally, the best way to provide information on an issue you are encountering is to fill out the issue template. we intentionally structure it in such a way that it helps elicit information that will be useful for us.

in the future, i ask that you please behave on this repository in the same way that you would in a workplace. this is my workplace, and i don’t expect to be berated for attempting to try to understand an issue better.

@brentvatne a few days in the software world can feel like an eternity 😃 Glad to hear you guys are already on top of it. Thanks for the quick turnaround.
