Play-games-plugin-for-unity: Duplicate file(s) in apk: '....\Temp\StagingArea\android-libraries\play-games-plugin-support\libs'

[edscodeblenders]

Hi guys,

For my Unity game I was previously using Google Mobile Ads SDK 3.6.3, and Google Play Games Plugin 0.9.40. Now I just upgraded to Google Mobile Ads SDK 3.7.1, and Google Play Games Plugin 0.9.41, and since then I can't build my project for Android anymore. I'm getting the error:
Duplicate file(s) in apk: '....\Temp\StagingArea\android-libraries\play-games-plugin-support\libs'

I checked many threads with similar issues at no avail. It's been 2 days now fighting against this issue, and I'm running out of ideas...

Anyone knows what could be happening here? And how to fix the issue?

Thanks.

I resolved this by deleting the file play-games-plugin-support.jar from the "Assets\Plugins\Android" folder. Now my game builds, however after authentication, I can't show the Leaderboards. This was working properly in version 0.9.40, but in version 0.9.41 nothing happens...

Any idea?

Same here. No solution so far

Hey guys!
I'm having the same issue, but in my case, I don't have a:
play-games-plugin-support.jar
but only the:
play-games-plugin-support.aar
Removing this file leads to the successful build but results in a crash at runtime, where my game attempts to use GPGS authorization. Am I missing something obvious?

P.S. Had no such problems with previous version and Android SDK is updated.

Please help.

I've managed to solve the problem by removing the folder with files:
libgpg.so that were accidentally left from the previous version of the plugin.

Had the same issue like @creatio-ua
But it was included by another plugin which has reference to GPGS

Sounds like this is resolved. Closing.

Solved with 0.9.42 based on @creatio-ua's comment.

0.9.42 added the folder /Plugins/Android/gpgs-plugin-support/libs

Had to remove the /Plugins/Android/libs folder that carried over from 0.9.40

PERFECT!
