unable to generate app-descriptor

[Shaunmax]

I just updated a project after a long time but was unable to generate the app descriptor

apm generate app-descriptor
Android package name: air.com.company.appname
✗ Android manifest merge  
generate/app-descriptor :: /Users/macname/Projects/AppName/apm_packages/com.distriqt.firebase.Performance/contents/platforms/android/firebase-sessions-2.0.0/AndroidManifest.xml Warning:
	Package name 'com.google.firebase.sessions' used in: AndroidManifest.xml, AndroidManifest.xml.
/Users/macname/Projects/AppName/.tmp59385/AndroidManifest.xml:4:5-74 Error:
	uses-sdk:minSdkVersion 21 cannot be smaller than version 23 declared in library /Users/macname/Projects/AppName/apm_packages/com.distriqt.firebase.Auth/contents/platforms/android/firebase-auth-23.0.0/AndroidManifest.xml as the library might be using APIs not available in 21
	Suggestion: use a compatible library with a minSdk of at most 21,
		or increase this project's minSdk version to at least 23,
		or use tools:overrideLibrary="com.google.firebase.auth" to force usage (may lead to runtime failures)
