I try to build a module in Android Studio. It seemed to run on device but when I tried to build an APK, I got an error:
Program type already present: com.facebook.ads.Ad
Here’s the complete log:

Based on answers I found in other questions, what I tried so far are:
- Clean & rebuild.
- Clean & make project.
- Restart Android Studio.
- Make sure multiDexEnabled is set to true.
- Change JDK versions.
- Change Gradle versions.
None of which worked for me. Also, when I try to look for dependencies in a tree by ./gradle app:dependencies, I find nothing of the sort: com.facebook.ads.Ad. How should I resolve this?
