[Bug]: Cannot find module react-dom/test-utils

Describe the bug

When upgrading form storybook 8.2.6 to 8.3.4, I got this error.

It is caused by @storybook/react/dist/chunk-OOL6AVF7.mjs:

...
import * as DeprecatedReactTestUtils from 'react-dom/test-utils';

I'm using React 17.

Similar issue in @storybook/core:

// needs to be `react/jsx-runtime.js` in React 17
import { Fragment as b6, jsx as iu } from "react/jsx-runtime";

Do you a have a reproduction repo you can share? If not, can you create one? Go to https://storybook.new or see repro docs. Thank you! 🙏

Not yet. This is mostly react 17 vs 18 issue. Some of storybook dependency (radux-ui, and storybook/core) is using react 18 specific stuff. So it just won't work with react 17 out of the box.

i.e. storybook 8.3 does not support react 17 anymore, unexpectedly.

I can work around it by patching those two packages locally.

Update: a simple repro doesn't repro the issue. Maybe also related to tsconfig.

However, really not sure why not able to repro, as the import statement is pretty clear shouldn't work.

Same error here! yarn: 4.5.0, yarn workspaces mono and zero-installs

Just downgraded to 8.2.2 and everything works again!

Maybe let's look into this error?? 😄
