React native: Veramo requires @mattrglobal/node-bbs-signatures which does not compile on RN (without expo)

Bug severity 3

Describe the bug Trying to get Veramo running on React native, getting `Error: Unable to resolve module @mattrglobal/node-bbs-signatures`` Tried installing it explicit, but then it fails to compile with call to undefined module

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

1. Clone branch veramoProvider https://github.com/symfoni/identity-wallet/tree/veramoProvider
2. npm install
3. npm run ios
4. See error: Error: Unable to resolve module @mattrglobal/node-bbs-signatures
5. npm i @mattrglobal/node-bbs-signatures --save
6. See error: Error: Requiring unknown module "undefined". If you are sure the module exists, try restarting Metro. You may also want to run yarnornpm install. VeramoProvider@http://localhost:8081/index.bundle?platform=ios&dev=true&minify=false&modulesOnly=false&runModule=true&app=org.reactjs.native.example.identityWallet:263487:41 ContextProvider@http://localhost:8081/index.bundle?platform=ios&dev=true&minify=false&modulesOnly=false&runModule=true&app=org.reactjs.native.example.identityWallet:139237:41 See image below.

Observed behaviour A clear and concise description of what you observe.

Expected behaviour Could BBS-signatures be optional? Else, any had this issue before and a way to either get it working or circumvent it for now.

We are useing @veramo/did-provider-key for some services and without it we cant resolves does DIDs in the react native client. So its actually a blocker for us.

We could port those services to Ethr, but have a problem there as described in https://github.com/uport-project/veramo/issues/677

This is strange. That dependency should not be required in this version of veramo. Can you list the dependencies and devdependencies you have in package.json? Nevermind, I saw you linked your source. We’ll take a look
