[Bug] Github Actions error with Android Gradle plugin 8.2.0-alpha01

[AndreSand]

Description Hi, I updated to the latest Android Studio Hedgehog(canary) and updated gradle plugin 8.2.0-alpha01. When I run on Github Actions I get the below error.

Error:

Downloading https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-8.0-bin.zip ...........10%............20%............30%............40%............50%............60%...........70%............80%............90%............100%

Welcome to Gradle 8.0!

For more details see https://docs.gradle.org/8.0/release-notes.html

Starting a Gradle Daemon (subsequent builds will be faster)

Checking the license for package Android SDK Build-Tools 34-rc3 in /usr/local/lib/android/sdk/licenses FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

Warning: License for package Android SDK Build-Tools 34-rc3 not accepted.

• What went wrong: Could not determine the dependencies of task ':app:compileDebugJavaWithJavac'.

  Failed to install the following Android SDK packages as some licences have not been accepted. build-tools;34.0.0-rc3 Android SDK Build-Tools 34-rc3 To build this project, accept the SDK license agreements and install the missing components using the Android Studio SDK Manager. All licenses can be accepted using the sdkmanager command line tool: sdkmanager.bat --licenses Or, to transfer the license agreements from one workstation to another, see https://developer.android.com/studio/intro/update.html#download-with-gradle

  Using Android SDK: /usr/local/lib/android/sdk Platforms affected Azure DevOps GitHub Actions - Standard Runners GitHub Actions - Larger Runners Runner images affected Ubuntu 20.04 Ubuntu 22.04 macOS 11 macOS 12 Windows Server 2019 Windows Server 2022 Image version and build link Current runner version: '2.303.0' Operating System: Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS Runner Image: Image: ubuntu-22.04

Is it regression? Yes, it was working on previous gradle plugin versions

Expected behavior New gradle releases builds Android successfully

Actual behavior Currently GitHub image is not accepting the sdkmanager license.

Warning: License for package Android SDK Build-Tools 34-rc3 not accepted.

Repro steps Use an Android project Update to the latest gradle plugin version Build on GitHub Actions Note: Only fails when we build using the latest Android gradle plugin version, Github Actions works fine using older Android gradle plugin versions.

Hi @AndreSand, thanks for the report. I tested locally, without using gradle-build-action: when I don't have installed/accepted the Android SDK Build-Tools 34-rc3 license, I get the same error: Once I installed the SDK build tools, build works:

Checking the runner-images repo I see that the 34-rc3 is not included in the sdk components: https://github.com/actions/runner-images/blob/main/images/linux/Ubuntu2004-Readme.md#android

Looks like the issue is related to the runner-images repo

Hi @cdsap, Thank you for looking into issue.

Yes looks like the issue is with the Github runner-images.
