Good day.
I use deltaDNA Analytics unity plugin and all works fine. But when i adding GooglePlayGames plugin i keep on getting re-package failure errors. Part of error message below:

CommandInvokationFailure: Failed to re-package resources.

I think this is conflict between “play-services-base-10.0.1” used by GP and “play-services-base-7.8.0” used DeltaDNA SDK but i dont know how to fix this issue. Both plugins work correctly separated from each other

I’d like to provide some more details for people who run into this issue in the future.

This error message (“Failed to re-package resources”) can occur when Unity executes aapt, which is a tool from the Android SDK).

This tool is responsible for packaging all kinds of resources into the final .apk package.

In this specific case, it is failing and the error message shows us why:

stderr[
D:\D\Unity\Projects\AllPlugin1\Temp\StagingArea\android-libraries\play-services-base-10.0.1\res\values\values.xml:33: error: Attribute
“imageAspectRatioAdjust” already
defined with incompatible format.
D:\D\Unity\Projects\AllPlugin1\Temp\StagingArea\android-libraries\play-services-base-7.8.0\res\values\common_attrs.xml:13: Original attribute defined here.
AndroidManifest.xml:34: error: Error:
No resource found that matches the
given name (at ‘resource’ with value
‘@string/sender_id’). ]
A resource named ‘imageAspectRatioAdjust’ was defined, but is defined again with an incompatible format. The error also shows the paths where this resource is found:

D:\D\Unity\Projects\AllPlugin1\Temp\StagingArea\android-libraries\play-services-base-10.0.1
D:\D\Unity\Projects\AllPlugin1\Temp\StagingArea\android-libraries\play-services-base-7.8.0

As you can see, the same google play services library (play-services-base) exists twice in the project, but in 2 different versions.

In this case, the fix was to remove one of them (the older one).

Solve it by deleting play-services-base-7.8.0.aar
