Summary

I followed the direction to use expo with RN 0.66.x given in expo/expo#15914 (comment). My project is Android-only. When I'm trying to run npx install-expo-modules, I got the error about iOS deployment target even though my project is Android only.

Error output

This is what I get in my personal project

❯ npx install-expo-modules

Reproducible demo or steps to reproduce from a blank project

I am not sure that I can provide reproducible demo like what I encountered in my project. But as my project is Android-only, I think deleting the ios directory is enough.

Steps:

1. npx react-native init RN066 --version 0.66
2. cd RN066
3. rm -rf ios
4. npx install-expo-modules

Edit: It gave the similar error message as what I encountered in my personal project.
