Sync Gradle - cannot build - Each module must have a unique path

[lachlanwp]

Your Environment

• Plugin version: 0.6.3
• Platform: Android
• OS version: Android 9.0
• Device manufacturer and model: Google Pixel 3

• Running in Simulator: Yes
• React Native version: 0.61.5
• Plugin configuration options:
• Link to your project: It's private

Context

I'm trying to build from Android Studio. I have tried both auto linking (running extra js file included) and manual linking. Android Studio cannot build the app. It looks like there are some duplicate references somewhere but I couldn't find them. The error I get when running a gradle sync is:

ERROR: The modules ['@mauron85_react-native-background-geolocation', 'mauron85_react-native-background-geolocation'] point to the same directory in the file system.
Each module must have a unique path.

Expected Behavior

I should be able to build from Android Studio.

Actual Behavior

Build is failing

Possible Fix

Check if there are some duplicate module references or if there is some conflict somewhere.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open Android RN folder in Android Studio
2. Goto the "File" menu
3. Click on "Sync project with gradle files"

Context

Issue has affected me since I started using the latest version of React Native. I was using this library in a different app with an older version of RN and it was working fine.

Debug logs

ERROR: The modules ['@mauron85_react-native-background-geolocation', 'mauron85_react-native-background-geolocation'] point to the same directory in the file system.
Each module must have a unique path.
