expo sdk 41 - unable to build standalone apk/aab

I recently upgraded my expo's SDK version from 35 to 41 and also upgraded expo-cli from 3.18.5 to 4.4.3. However, when I try to build a standalone APK/AAB, I'm getting the following error:
× Build failed. Standalone build failed!
In order to understand what was exactly causing this issue, I examined the Gradle logs of build Gradle on expo, and here's what I was able to find.

If we notice the above logs, it can be seen that the issue is mostly pertaining to the Splash screen.

Here's my app.json

{
  "expo": {
    "name": "APP_NAME",
    "slug": "APP_SLUG",
    "platforms": [
      "ios",
      "android",
      "web"
    ],
    "version": "1.0.1",
    "orientation": "portrait",
    "icon": "./assets/icon.png",
    "splash": {
      "image": "./assets/splash.png",
      "resizeMode": "contain",
      "backgroundColor": "#ffffff"
    },
    "updates": {
      "fallbackToCacheTimeout": 0
    },
    "assetBundlePatterns": [
      "**/*"
    ],
    "ios": {
      "supportsTablet": true,
      "bundleIdentifier": "BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER"
    },
    "android": {
      "package": "APP_PACKAGE",
      "softwareKeyboardLayoutMode": "pan",
      "versionCode": 1,
      "permissions": [
        "CAMERA"
      ],
      "enableDangerousExperimentalLeanBuilds": true
    }
  }
}

The builds were successful with the older SDK version, but few packages were not compatible with the older SDK, hence I had to upgrade it to the latest. The application is running perfectly fine in the expo go mobile application, but unable to build a standalone app.
How to solve this problem? Or, is it possible to downgrade from SDK 41 to 40 or 39? Any suggestions or recommendation is appreciated.

There are two major reasons for this cause.

  1. Setting enableDangerousExperimentalLeanBuils to true.
  2. Missing expo-splash-screen package.

The error is because it's(Gradle build) looking for expo-modules-splashscreen package, which is supposedly moved out of expo's main module in SDK 41, hence needs to be separately installed. In order to fix this, there are two workarounds:

  1. Remove enableDangerousExperimentalLeanBuilds property. (Not tested)
  2. Install expo-splash-screen using npm install expo-splash-screen.(Tested and working)
