React-native: Error while updating property 'lineHeight' in shadow node of type: RCTText

[SudoPlz]

Apparently this happens because I use

       cardContentText:{
        lineHeight: h*0.031,
      },

as the style of a <Text/>

This is the trace I got from logcat:

Apparently this is the same is this https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/3715 or this https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/3589 , but I'm using react native 26.1 on Android, and I still get this error.

I'm testing on:
a Genymotion Samsung Galaxy S4 with API 17.
"react-native": "^0.26.1",
"react": "15.0.2",

What to do?

Should I be using lineHeight in the <Text> itself and not on its style?

[nicowrp]

lineHeight must be an integer, numbers with decimals are not considered as valid values.

@nicowrp Thanks, I know that, but that is supposed to be fixed many versions now.

Integer numbers cannot achieve the level of detail I wish to have.
