Android Studio – getting build error after updating ads dependencies to latest version

I am getting this build error while I am trying to run my application from Android Studio.

Execution failed for task ':app:checkDebugDuplicateClasses'.

This only happens after I update ads dependencies to the latest version.

From :

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:20.0.0'

To :

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:20.4.0'

If I change it back to 20.0.0 then it’s working fine. I think the problem is with the latest version 20.4.0.

Can anybody help me please? Thanks in advance.

    The release notes are not giving a hint.

    I ended up using 20.3.0 for now which does not produce this error.

    Another Google owned library has a conflicting version of com.google.android.gms:play-services-measurement-base installed. In my case it was Firebase Analytics.

    Firebase Analytics

    +--- com.google.firebase:firebase-analytics:18.0.0
|    +--- com.google.android.gms:play-services-measurement:18.0.0

    Play Services Ads

    +--- com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:20.6.0
|    +--- com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads-lite:20.6.0
|    |    +--- com.google.android.gms:play-services-measurement-sdk-api:18.0.3
|    |    |    --- com.google.android.gms:play-services-measurement-base:18.0.3

    After upgrading Firebase Analytics from version 18.0.0 to 20.1.2 it solved the issue.

    To determine which library is conflicting in your project, output your dependency tree and find which library also installs com.google.android.gms:play-services-measurement-base. Then upgrade that library to the latest version.
