I am trying to implement flutter plugin in_app_review in one of my flutter project but i am getting duplicate dependency error.
I think some of the plugin from my project is somewhere adding play core dependency which is causing this issue.
Please help me figure out the solution.
I am getting this error log.

I found the solution to the problem. It was happening because I was using;
implementation 'com.google.android.play:core:1.10.3'implementation'com.google.android.play:core-ktx:1.8.1'These two dependencies are in my android folder for in-app update and I thought
com.google.android.play:core:1.10.3is responsible for the duplicate dependency issue so when I commented that out it was still giving duplicate dependency issue ascom.google.android.play:core-ktx:1.8.1is also the same so I check on developer guide page where this dependency is now separated according to feature from core dependency then I removed this two dependencies and added implementation'com.google.android.play:app-update-ktx:2.0.1'this one as I was doing the in-app update as well. which helped me fix my problem.my app has both in_app_review and rate_my_app and i have the same issue.
i solved it by locking in_app_review to 2.0.4:
2.0.4 not ^2.0.4.
looks like 2.0.5 introduced this bug.
For me it removing the rate_my_app package fixed it
