Build failed due to gradle issues in plugin

Howdy mate!

I just touched down into your repo and wanted to use the plugin for getting Storage paths. Although unfortunately I ran into build error at gradle stage. Attached is the stacktrace from Flutter.

Launching lib\main.dart on Android SDK built for x86 in debug mode...

I have no good idea of why this happened - being new at Flutter, but maybe you could help fix if plugin issue or give some resolution if an error from my side.

I've added ext_storage: ^1.0.3 to my project, did a flutter get and ran a debug session.

I solved that with a downgrade gradle app. android/build.gradle file : I downgrade 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.1.0' ==> 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.5.2'

• gradle-wrapper.properties file : I downgrade distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.7-all.zip ==> distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-5.6.2-all.zip

Same issue reproducible for me:

External Libraries->Flutter Plugins->ext_storage-1.0.3->android->build.gradle

ext.kotlin_version = '1.3.10'->ext.kotlin_version = '1.4.20'
