Sentry on React Native: Building for iOS breaks with "property 'options' not found on object of type 'PrivateSentrySDKOnly'"

I am using CircleCI to build for iOS (and Android) and recently, the iOS build fails with these error messages:

Compiling RNSentry.m

It has once worked to build for iOS, and I think this has something to do with the version of Sentry; I think I tried to update the Sentry version to 4.9.0, only to find that 4.9.0 has some serious issues (I think). I am not smart enough to dechiffer exactly what the conclusions here are, but I think it relates:

https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-cocoa/issues/1665
https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-react-native/issues/2530
(I was looking for another URL that related, but cant find now)

Android works to build with the configs and whatnot, but iOS fails. I am not sure what do to do resolve this, and I would like some input =)

the package.json has Sentry 4.8.0:

  "dependencies": {
    "@react-native-async-storage/async-storage": "^1.17.4",
    "@react-native-community/cli-platform-android": "^6.3.0",
    "@sentry/react-native": "4.8.0",
    "@turf/distance": "^6.0.1",
    "axios": "^1.1.1",

    "patch-package": "^6.4.7",
    "react": "17.0.2",
    "react-native": "0.67.4",

Here is the rest of my config/setup:

Note: I have Android Studio installed, and it is working for Android native project. No idea why doctor complains or how to resolve it, other than downloading another copy of Android studio?

UPDATE

I ran npm-update, it suggested updating sentry to 4.10.1. After that was done, I see this change in package.json:

also yarn.lock

but still, the builds fails with the same error.

UPDATE 2

I check podfile.* and I see stuff like:

 podfile.lock:

  - RNSentry (3.4.2):
    - React-Core
    - Sentry (= 7.11.0)
  - RNSnackbar (2.4.0):
    - React-Core
  - RNSVG (9.13.6):
    - React
  - Sentry (7.11.0):
    - Sentry/Core (= 7.11.0)
  - Sentry/Core (7.11.0)

The file podfile does not contain "sentry" at all.
