When I highlight my project, go to properties, select java build path and then try to remove an Android Dependency from my list of Android dependencies the remove button is grey'd out. How can I remove that specific dependency?

JFTR:

I have had similar problem after a messed merge of two projects branches on Eclipse. I could revert the merge as I did not commited yet, but Eclipse project files that I do not store in my repository was messed.

The solution for me was to:

  1. Delete the error message from "Problems" view.
  2. Clean the project (Project / Clean...)

Solved!
