Describe the issue

I have installed NestJs and have reflect-metadata in my dependencies:
"reflect-metadata": "^0.2.0"

I try to install automapper libs:
npm i --save @automapper/core @automapper/nestjs @automapper/classes reflect-metadata
and get a error:

npm ERR! code ERESOLVE
npm ERR! ERESOLVE unable to resolve dependency tree
npm ERR!

I found that @automapper/classes has fixed version of reflect-metadata 0.1.13 ans it's conflicted with new versions like 0.2.0.
Can automapper/classes be updated to the latest version of reflect-metadata, or maybe there is some other way to fix a problem?

Any idea when approval on the PR will come in?

[irazers]

in the meantime you can use npm install --legacy-peer-deps (but I agree it is not clean)

Weird, there is a PR for this and it looks like the last update on this repo was 10 months ago.
I wouldn't use it in this state as it seems abandoned at the moment.
Does only one person have control over this repo?
