fix: remove unnecessary dependencies to promises and @sentry/wizard

[olivier-blanc-openit]

Sentry/capacitor had a runtime dependency on Sentry/wizard, which then depends on rxjs through inquirer.

This cause issues in monorepo configurations, for instance : ReactiveX/rxjs#6628 and webpack/webpack#14405.

Since Sentry/wizard is more or less a CLI tool, it is not required as a runtime dependency.

wizard may be required once #39 is implemented.

That also sounds like a dev dependency. I believe the OP's point still stands.

That said I recall we removed it once on React Native, and it caused issue.

getsentry/sentry-react-native#2015

The PR linked doesn't say what error it was throwing, so it's unclear to me if this would break things here too. Maybe @jennmueng (author of the PR) or @marandaneto (approver) have additional thoughts

@bruno-garcia The issue with getsentry/sentry-react-native#2015 was that the linking script for RN on iOS automatically runs the Sentry Wizard, which wouldn't exist and would fail.

As we don't do any auto linking scripts here AFAIK that use the wizard we should be good to remove it.

@olivier-blanc-openit could u please add a changelog entry?

[bruno-garcia]

Also, I believe the wizard should become a dev dependency then, no?

Hello, is there a way to hack this up with patch-package so we don't ship @sentry/wizard with our .... webapp?

Yes it's true, this react-native module affect our web bundle , see getsentry/sentry-react-native#2409

An update: Sentry Wizard will be supported by Capacitor, the promises package will be removed from the dependencies and Sentry Wizard will be moved to the devDependencies. All that after the integration with the Wizard is completed

Should we reopen this issue? The stale bot closed it.

Hello! What's the status of this issue? npm audit --omit=dev throws 3 critical vulnerabilities because of that dependencies.

wizard may be required once #39 is implemented.

I don't think we should keep things "for the future". Moreover, we can always restore dependencies from the git history

PS: I can create new PR if needed

[lucas-zimerman]

This PR will move to #400
Thank you @olivier-blanc-openit for the contribution!
