Error building (storybook) with v1.5.0 due to `useId`

[espada-edalex]

RenovateBot opened an MR to bump the version of react-file-icon but the build is failing due to React.useId. We're using Typescript and it looks like it's complaining because that doesn't exist in out version of React (we're on 17.0.2).

ERR! [tsl] ERROR in react-frontend/node_modules/react-file-icon/dist/react-file-icon.esm.js(144,19)
ERR!       TS2339: Property 'useId' does not exist on type 'typeof React'.
ERR! Error: => Webpack failed, learn more with --debug-webpack

Has anyone else encountered this and/or have a possible workaround?

Pretty sure this should work, but now it's throwing an error that it doesn't know the type of useId

const useId = "useId" in React
  ? React.useId
  : (() => {
    let i = 0;
    return () => `${i++}`;
  })();

ERR! [tsl] ERROR in react-frontend/node_modules/react-file-icon/dist/react-file-icon.esm.js(172,12)
ERR!       TS18046: 'useId' is of type 'unknown'.

The actual hack I made looks like this

var useId = "useId" in React ? React.useId : function () {
  var i = 0;
  return function () {
    return `${i++}`;
  };
}();
