A month has passed, is there any information?

Do you have any updates on this, please?

@namluu @sergey-ctrl Like you I have been waiting for an update on this important problem, so I thought you might appreciate what I found.

We have encountered this problem in our live web store where we wish to use Braintree to process credit cards, and PayPal Express Checkout as another payment option, and specifically NOT using Braintree for PayPal.

I found that when PayPal Express and Braintree Card Payments are both enabled, the window.paypal version conflict / already defined error occurs.

I found that /vendor/paypal/module-braintree-core/view/frontend/web/js/view/payment/adapter.js specifies https://www.paypalobjects.com/api/checkout.js as a RequireJS dependency, therefore this remote file is fetched and executed regardless of whether or not "Enable PayPal through Braintree" is set to "YES" in Braintree system configuration (therefore, it is needless overhead as Braintree CC processing does not require PayPal SDK). As you will see by viewing that file, it is responsible for assigning window.paypal and specifies version 4.0.318.

Continuing on with my investigation and findings, when PayPal Express Checkout is enabled as a Payment Method, vendor/magento/module-paypal/view/frontend/web/js/in-context/paypal-sdk.js is loaded and retrieves the PayPal JS SDK from paypal.com/sdk/js?client-id=.....params which loads the PayPal JS SDK at version 5.0.186 (at least at the time of writing)

As a means of proving my theory, I simply removed the https://www.paypalobjects.com/api/checkout.js from /vendor/paypal/module-braintree-core/view/frontend/web/js/view/payment/adapter.js, enabled PayPal Express Checkout, and proceeded to checkout. As I expected, version 5.0.186 of the PayPal JS SDK is successfully loaded and the Braintree Credit Card Form functions perfectly alongside the PayPal Express Checkout method.

There are various ways in which you can address this problem for your own store, so I'll defer that decision to you. I hope this information helps you make that decision!

[jsamhall]

AFAIK this issue has yet to be resolved and therefore should not be marked as stale.
