I just received an exception when I was updating versions of frameworks and running an application that had been standing still for a long time. My dependencies are these:
dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:27.1.0'
annotationProcessor 'com.jakewharton:butterknife:7.0.1'

exclude module: 'support-v13'
exclude module: 'recyclerview-v7'
}
androidTestCompile 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-intents:3.0.1'
}
And the exception I received was this:
Error:com.android.builder.dexing.DexArchiveBuilderException: Failed to process /home/tassio/.gradle/caches/modules-2/files-2.1/com.google.guava/guava/21.0/3a3d111be1be1b745edfa7d91678a12d7ed38709/guava-21.0.jar

Why does guava in version 21 on Android throw the exception when compiled into the Dalvik (DEX) format?
