Crouton depends on libraries but is not a library itself

I'm using Android Studio 0.6.1, with Crouton library and today after gradle sync I got next error:

Error:A problem occurred configuring root project 'project_name'.
Module version de.keyboardsurfer.android.widget:crouton:1.8.4 depends on libraries but is not a library itself

That's going on?

Solution

  • This issue due to com.android.support-v4 recent update.

    So I changed

    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:20.+'

    to

    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:19.1.+'

    and crouton works fine

    Different workaround is to use @aar: 

    compile('de.keyboardsurfer.android.widget:crouton:1.8.4@aar') {
    exclude group: 'com.google.android', module: 'support-v4'
}
