[0.42.0] Missing Pod specs

[Maxwell2022]

I'm not sure I should report this here or in Yoga repo.

Running pod install with react-native 0.42.0 I got the following error:

None of your spec sources contain a spec satisfying the dependency: Yoga (= 0.42.0.React).

Same issue.

The official fix for this is to explicitly specify the location of React Native's copy of Yoga in your Podfile:

# In Podfile
react_native_path = "node_modules/react-native"
pod "React", :path => react_native_path
pod "Yoga", :path => "#{react_native_path}/ReactCommon/yoga"

Would anyone like to submit a docs PR?

@ide I'd be happy to do it, where would that documentation live? I don't think there is any section in the docs for Pods installation at the moment, except in troubleshooting?

I think it would a good idea to edit the release message (https://github.com/facebook/react-native/releases/tag/v0.42.0) to mention it too (@grabbou).

Git grep for where there are docs on using cocoa pods, iirc there is a docs page that explains what the podfile should look like.
