Cloudinary Library Incompatible with Newer Google Play Console Requirements: com.facebook.soloader:soloader Dependency Update Required

[martinmichuki8]

I'm encountering an issue when uploading my app to Google Play Console. The console is rejecting my app due to an outdated version of the com.facebook.soloader:soloader library. Google Play Console requires version 0.10.4 or newer.

I'm using the Cloudinary library in my app, and it seems to be indirectly pulling in an older version of com.facebook.soloader:soloader. This is causing the compatibility issue.

Steps I've Tried:

I've checked my app's dependencies and ensured that I'm not directly referencing an older version of com.facebook.soloader:soloader.
I've tried updating other dependencies to see if that resolves the issue, but it has not.

Request:

I kindly request the Cloudinary team to update the Cloudinary library to use a compatible version of com.facebook.soloader:soloader. This will allow me and other developers to successfully upload their apps to Google Play Console without encountering this compatibility issue.

Thanks for flagging this. The issue you've reported is actually a duplicate of issue 169, so I'm going to close this off. A user has commented on that thread with a potential workaround which may help you.
