I created a repo on just a simple android library and a simple android project using that library via a composite build that doesn’t seem to work. (You can view the last commit is enabling composite build)

Steps

1. git clone
2. cd MyApplication
3. ./gradlew build

Result:

> Could not determine the dependencies of task ‘:app:lintVitalReportRelease’.

The consumer was configured to find a runtime of a component, preferably optimized for Android, as well as attribute ‘com.android.build.api.attributes.BuildTypeAttr’ with value ‘release’, attribute ‘com.android.build.api.attributes.AgpVersionAttr’ with value ‘7.1.0’ but:

Any ideas how to do an android composite build?
