I am using libusb in my android application. When I am trying to build libusb native library then I get below error message, *.so files generated.

Error:Execution failed for task ':app:transformNativeLibsWithMergeJniLibsForDebug'. More than one file was found with OS independent path 'lib/x86/libusb.so'

I am on windows machine. Does anyone know what could be the issue ?

I was having this issue in my React-Native Bridge project after I added AAR files of 3rd party SDK. And I was linking the Bridge into my Main React-native application.

Solution (May differ for you):

Add this in app/build.gradle the Main React-Native application:

packagingOptions {
    pickFirst '**/*.so'
}
  • Test the Build on React-Native Bridge project after adding the AAR libraries.
  • Clean the React-Native Bridge project
  • Clean the React-Native application project
  • Remove node_modules and re-install the bridge package into the project.
  • Run the application.

I faced another issue related to this (If you include AAR into library project that's not being linked to main application)
