Description

With equalityCheckMethod: equatable, an implementation file (package:equatable/src/equatable_utils.dart) is imported and the internal equals and mapPropsToHashCode functions are used.

equals was recently removed in Equatable v2.0.6 and then reverted in v2.0.7.

Suggest a fix

Would it be possible to use Equatable through the public interface instead of depending on internal code that may break again in the future?
