title: How to fix More than one file was found with OS independent path 'build-data.properties'
body: <p>After adding a dependency to &quot;androidx.security:security-crypto:1.0.0-alpha02&quot;, I get the error message &quot;More than one file was found with OS independent path 'build-data.properties'.&quot; I have tried to correct it by changing the version of the library (1.1.0-alpha01; 1.0.0-alpha02; 1.0.0-alpha01) and modifying the packageoptions section as I have found on the net  but nothing has worked. Thanks for your help.</p>
