I am using your lib as:

compile 'com.googlecode.ez-vcard:ez-vcard:0.10.4'

and have a warning in Android Studio 3.1.3:

eazy_vcard

My configuration in root project gradle is:

dependencies {
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.3.3'
    classpath 'com.neenbedankt.gradle.plugins:android-apt:1.4'
}

ext {
    minSdkVersion = 14
    targetSdkVersion = 25
    compileSdkVersion = 25
    buildToolsVersion = '25.0.3'

    androidSupportVersion = '25.3.1'
}

Please do not post screenshots of error messages.

There must be something strange about the way the freemarker developers compiled the JAR that they uploaded to Maven Central. You can safely exclude this dependency as long as you are not using ez-vcard to create hCards (a special format that allows you to embed vCards in HTML).

Thanks for explanation!

FreeMarker as of 2.3.28 is compiled for Java 5 target platform for backward compatibility (but with the Java 8 compiler); not sure if they call it old. Older FreeMarker 2.3.x versions are complied for even older Java versions, back to Java 1.2. Not sure which version is used here. But, it's just a warning anyway...
