[Question]: Error build android since package_info_plus 3.0.1

[AlexRich16]

What is your question?

I've a build error on android since I've upgrade package_info_plus 3.0.0 -> 3.0.1

A problem occurred configuring project ':package_info_plus'.
> Could not resolve all artifacts for configuration ':package_info_plus:classpath'.
> Could not resolve org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:1.7.20.

build.gradle

ext.kotlin_version = '1.6.10'

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.4.2'
classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"

distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.3-all.zip

If i downgrade on package_info_plus 3.0.0 , it's ok ✅

Can you help me to upgrade my dependency and solve my problem ?
Thanks

you need to upgrade your gradle version, the top of your andoid\build.gradle file should look something like this:

buildscript {
    ext.kotlin_version = '1.7.20'
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
        gradlePluginPortal()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.3.1'
        classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"
        classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.14'
    }
}

You should use Android Studio to upgrade to the latest version of the gradle plugin (open the project in android studio, and it will prompt you to upgrade the gradle plugin), make sure that com.google.gms:google-services is set to 4.3.14 otherwise gradle 7.3 won't work. After this, you may bump ext.kotlin_version to 1.7.20, and plus plugins will work accordingly.

@vbuberen Which makes it incompatible with Flutter 2. I would love if the plugin would be a little bit longer compatible with an older gradle version. Version 2 was still compatible with Gradle 3 and now it requires Gradle 7. The last release of Flutter 2 is not even one year old.

Please re-open this issue, thanks.
