How to solve 'Program type already present: com.google.common.util.concurrent.ListenableFuture'?

I am trying to use WorkManager 1.0.0-alpha09. and getting this error:

Program type already present: 
com.google.common.util.concurrent.ListenableFuture

Message{kind=ERROR, text=Program type already present: 
com.google.common.util.concurrent.ListenableFuture, sources=[Unknown source 
file], tool name=Optional.of(D8)}

If i use version 1.0.0-alpha08 or less. I don't get this error, but i need public constructor 

public Worker(Context context, WorkerParameters workerParams)
Solution

  • Take a look at https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/116154359.

    The workaround is:

    implementation("android.arch.work:work-runtime:1.0.0-alpha09") {
    exclude group: 'com.google.guava', module: 'listenablefuture' 
}
