Multiple Copies of React

See original GitHub issue

Hi @JedWatson, great package and it works well in other Meteor apps I have. One of my meteor apps I’ve used webpack. The issue I’m now facing is:

Error: Invariant Violation: addComponentAsRefTo(…): Only a ReactOwner can have refs. You might be adding a ref to a component that was not created inside a component’s render method, or you have multiple copies of React loaded (details: https://fb.me/react-refs-must-have-owner).

My app now and must use import React from 'react'; Is there a way to remove the error message I’m getting? I’m sure it’s because I’m pulling two versions of react.

I have the same problem when trying to fork React-Select as a git_submodule. Not using webpack on this project. No idea what to do, nothing seems to work.
