Failing to download rn-fetch-blob 0.12.0

[sayurimizuguchi]

JCenter was shut down and often has issues downloading the dependencies. We need the release of 0.13+ to have this commit https://github.com/joltup/rn-fetch-blob/commit/bb6cb9294d1e5501866bd4835252ab764394e92b

Currently when downloading version 0.12.0 and trying to build, we are experiencing:

A problem occurred configuring project ':rn-fetch-blob'.
> Could not resolve all files for configuration ':rn-fetch-blob:classpath'.
   > Could not resolve com.android.tools.analytics-library:shared:26.2.1.
     Required by:
         project :rn-fetch-blob > com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1
         project :rn-fetch-blob > com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1 > com.android.tools.build:builder:3.2.1
         project :rn-fetch-blob > com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1 > com.android.tools.build:builder:3.2.1 > com.android.tools.analytics-library:tracker:26.2.1
      > Could not resolve com.android.tools.analytics-library:shared:26.2.1.
         > Could not get resource 'https://jcenter.bintray.com/com/android/tools/analytics-library/shared/26.2.1/shared-26.2.1.pom'.
            > Could not HEAD 'https://jcenter.bintray.com/com/android/tools/analytics-library/shared/26.2.1/shared-26.2.1.pom'.
               > Read timed out

Any news on when we will be releasing the new version?

If anybody is experiencing this as well, as a workaround, I have pointed my package.json to download the beta from Source code of your git directly:

    "rn-fetch-blob": "https://github.com/joltup/rn-fetch-blob/archive/refs/tags/v0.13.0-beta-1.tar.gz",

But I'm facing this error then,

Found the fix for it..

you need to add this in your android/app/build.gradle

android {
    packagingOptions {
    pickFirst 'lib/x86/libc++_shared.so'
    pickFirst 'lib/x86_64/libc++_shared.so'
    pickFirst 'lib/armeabi-v7a/libc++_shared.so'
    pickFirst 'lib/arm64-v8a/libc++_shared.so'
   }
//rest of code here

}

Note, this issue is because of JCenter getting offline sometimes, it messes with multiple packages, not only this one. The workaround is to point to MavenCentral.

Yep, I solve the same problem by this.
