App crashing on android on new app using bun when I open react debugger

[vickylance]

Describe the bug

I created a new re.pack react native project using bun.
I ran bun run android command and then bun start.
Then tried opening the project in both Android emulator and Android device and tried opening React native debugger. On both it crashes the App as soon as I open it.

Found a similar issue here - #891
