@javidnoutash Do you have any information to explain the problem you are having?

Everything works fine when I run the app in debug mode, however, the build fails if I run the app in release mode.

[   +8 ms] * What went wrong:
[        ] Execution failed for task ':app:lintVitalRelease'.
[        ] > Could not resolve all artifacts for configuration ':app:dynamicProfileRuntimeClasspath'.
[        ]    > Could not resolve project :barcode_scan.

[        ] * Try:
[        ] Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.

@javidnoutash Do what the error message says and run the gradlew command with the --scan option to get more information on the source of the problem

I have temporary solved the issue by adding checkReleaseBuilds false to

    lintOptions {
        disable 'InvalidPackage'
        checkReleaseBuilds false // temporary
    }

In app/build.gradle
