react-native-photo-view is causing APK build failure

[rum-n]

My react-native-photo-view version is 1.5.2
My RN version is 0.63.4

The error I'm getting when trying to create an APK:

> Task :react-native-photo-view:compileReleaseJavaWithJavac FAILED /[...]/app/node_modules/react-native-photo-view/android/src/main/java/com/reactnative/photoview/ImageEvent.java:12: error: package android.support.annotation does not exist import android.support.annotation.IntDef; ^ /[...]/app/node_modules/react-native-photo-view/android/src/main/java/com/reactnative/photoview/ImageEvent.java:21: error: cannot find symbol @IntDef({ON_ERROR, ON_LOAD, ON_LOAD_END, ON_LOAD_START, ON_TAP, ON_VIEW_TAP, ON_SCALE}) ^ symbol: class IntDef location: class ImageEvent /[...]/app/node_modules/react-native-photo-view/android/src/main/java/com/reactnative/photoview/PhotoView.java:7: error: package android.support.annotation does not exist import android.support.annotation.NonNull; ^ /[...]/app/node_modules/react-native-photo-view/android/src/main/java/com/reactnative/photoview/PhotoView.java:60: error: cannot find symbol @NonNull ResourceDrawableIdHelper resourceDrawableIdHelper) { ^ symbol: class NonNull location: class PhotoView /[...]/app/node_modules/react-native-photo-view/android/src/main/java/com/reactnative/photoview/PhotoView.java:143: error: cannot find symbol public void maybeUpdateView(@NonNull PipelineDraweeControllerBuilder builder) { ^ symbol: class NonNull location: class PhotoView Note: Some input files use or override a deprecated API.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
