Privacy manifest file collides with local project privacy manifest file

[jesse-one-app]

Describe the bug
The privacy manifest file exported by Launch darkly conflicts with a projects local privacy file causing a build failure

To reproduce
Include the latest Launch darkly sdk into a project with an existing privacy manifest file

Expected behavior
Build should pass

SDK version
9.2.0

OS/platform
iOS

Additional context
It appears the issue has been resolved in the launch darkly ios-client-sdk v9.6.1, the react native package needs to adopt that newer version of the companion sdk

Facing the same issue on LD SDK 8.2.0

It was fixed in the following commit on the originating ios-client-sdk: launchdarkly/ios-client-sdk@971a4c4

I think both versions 9.2.0 and 8.2.0 need to be patched (as 9.2.0 is not recommended for apps using RN <=0.73 and old arch)

Hello, @jesse-one-app and @denissb, thank you for reporting this, we have filed this internally as 242758 and will work on a fix for this.

Hi @louis-launchdarkly, is there a way to track the status of 242758? I'm curious when we might see a patch for SDK 8.2.0. Thank you

If it helps, after updating to react native 0.74.1, we downgraded the library to 8.0.2 to temporarily get around the issue

[denissb]

If you are on version 8.20 and don't want to downgrade as a workaround you can try to use the following script to patch the SDK in a postinstall step or use patch-package to overwrite "LaunchDarkly", "9.5.1" with "LaunchDarkly", "9.6.2"

import fs from 'fs/promises';
import path from 'path';

const __dirname = path.dirname(new URL(import.meta.url).pathname);

const replaceInFile = async (filePath, searchValue, replaceValue) => {
	const data = await fs.readFile(filePath, 'utf8');
	const result = data.replace(searchValue, replaceValue);

	await fs.writeFile(filePath, result, { encoding: 'utf8' });
	console.log(`Replaced Pod resource bundles in ${filePath}`);
};

const buildPluginFile = path.join(
	__dirname,
	'./node_modules/launchdarkly-react-native-client-sdk/launchdarkly-react-native-client-sdk.podspec',
);

(async () => {
	await replaceInFile(
		buildPluginFile,
		's.dependency "LaunchDarkly", "9.5.1"',
		's.dependency "LaunchDarkly", "9.6.2"',
	);
})();

It worked fine for me without any issues.
