Did anyone find a solution to this?

Nope, I ended up installing it with --force flag, and somehow it worked. Also for me, it's throwing as an error only on node v15. I tried switching to node v14.16.0 LTS, and now it's only there as a warning not as an error anymore. So now I am using node 14.16.0 LTS for my work.

I think the developer should provide a proper fix ..

I had to get it from another app that was using expo sdk36, then pasted it in node_modules of my sdk40 app, then i went on to download js-base64(which this library depends on ) manually and put it inside the node_modules of this library.

Now it works.

Same here, although using npm. No issues on Expo v 41.
