TEMPORARY SOLUTION:

Change your version to 2.9.0 (without the ^)
Delete node_modules & package-lock.json
run npm i && cd ios/ && pod install

package.json "react-native-gesture-handler": "2.9.0",

Hi! If you experience this issue try to follow steps suggested by @benminor. Sometimes reinstalling node_modules helps and I wouldn’t call it “temporary solution”. Also, removing ^ from version in package.json shouldn’t matter.

So if you see this problem, try reinstalling node_modules and then cd ios && pod install. You can also try deleting pods before doing pod install: cd ios and rm -rf Pods Podfile.lock

Let me know if it helps!

Experienced the same issue today. I noticed the only difference between one of our working react-native app projects and the failing one was that the error occured when upgrading to latest "react-native-gesture-handler": "2.13.3".

Solution:

Set version to 2.13.2 in package.json
run npm i && ios/ && pod install

try using “react-native-gesture-handler”: “^1.8.0”, it works for me

This works for me, still it should be a temporary solution, undefined method 'install_dependencies' for Pod:Module problem should be fixed with the latest version of react-native-gesture-handler.
