Getting library “libjsc.so” not found after upgrading React Native to 0.60-RC2

Question

I have updated React Native to 0.60-RC2, migrated to AndroidX using the Android Studio refractor and used the jetifier mentioned here: https://github.com/react-native-community/

Answer 1

In my case, This error was related with react-native-screen and adding following following two lines to dependencies section in android/app/build.gradle fixed the issue for me

implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.1.0-rc01'
implementation 'androidx.swiperefreshlayout:swiperefreshlayout:1.1.0-alpha02'

Answer 2

What solved for me was change build.gradle updating packagingOptions to:

  packagingOptions {
       pickFirst 'lib/x86/libc++_shared.so'
       pickFirst 'lib/x86/libjsc.so'
       pickFirst 'lib/x86_64/libjsc.so'
       pickFirst 'lib/arm64-v8a/libjsc.so'
       pickFirst 'lib/arm64-v8a/libc++_shared.so'
       pickFirst 'lib/x86_64/libc++_shared.so'
       pickFirst 'lib/armeabi-v7a/libc++_shared.so'
       pickFirst 'lib/armeabi-v7a/libjsc.so'
    }

Answer 3

I encountered a slight variation of this bug, where I had added a third buildType to my gradle config, 'releaseStaging'

The fix in this instance was to add the following line to dependencies in app/build.gradle

releaseStagingImplementation files(hermesPath + "hermes-release.aar")

Answer 4

Add below in your app/build.gradle

// On top of the file

def useIntlJsc = false

//inside dependencies

 if (useIntlJsc) {
        implementation 'org.webkit:android-jsc-intl:+'
    } else {
        implementation 'org.webkit:android-jsc:+'
    }
