How do I resolve “Duplicate files copied in APK META-INF/*”

by

There is a solution if you have only one license using the name license.txt (read: all license.txt copies are identical):

packagingOptions {
   pickFirst  'META-INF/license.txt'
}

Otherwise, Google also released a Gradle plugin to manage dependencies licenses. See here. I didn’t try it, but it looks like it’s capable of aggregating every dependency, and even generating an activity displaying all of those licenses.
