Flutter debug compilation error from /root/.pub-cache/hosted/pub.dartlang.org packages

Question

I upgraded to Flutter 2.0 two days back and started to face Execution failed for task ':app:compileFlutterBuildDebug' due to some packages.

Then I downgraded but the errors remain. My pubspec.yaml looks like below,

name: news_app
description: A news app

# The following defines the version and build number for your application.
# A version number is three numbers separated by dots, like 1.2.43
# followed by an optional build number separated by a +.
# Both the version and the builder number may be overridden in flutter
# build by specifying --build-name and --build-number, respectively.
# In Android, build-name is used as versionName while build-number used as versionCode.
# Read more about Android versioning at https://developer.android.com/studio/publish/versioning
# In iOS, build-name is used as CFBundleShortVersionString while build-number used as CFBundleVersion.

  # To add custom fonts to your application, add a fonts section here,
  # in this "flutter" section. Each entry in this list should have a
  # "family" key with the font family name, and a "fonts" key with a
  # list giving the asset and other descriptors for the font. For
  # example:
  # fonts:
  #   - family: Schyler

  #       - asset: fonts/TrajanPro.ttf

The packages that are causing the errors are chewie-0.9.10 and flutter_svg-0.18.1. But the thing is none of these two packages are in my pubspec.yaml. The errors are given below.

Everything I tried,

1. Downgraded from flutter 2.0 because everything was fine before upgrading.
2. Tried running flutter clean and then run.
3. Tried running flutter pub cache repair
4. I deleted the entire /root/.pub-cache/hosted/ directory and did run flutter pub get.
5. Tried running dart pub upgrade
6. I even reinstalled flutter entirely.

Nothing worked for me. I tried everything that I found by searching in SO and other places.

Thanks for reading.

Solution

I had the same problems. Turned out that some of my packages where not compatible with flutter 2.0.

I solved the problem by upgrading my packages to the newest version. You can either do it by updating them manually in the pubspec.yaml or by flutter pub upgrade --major-versions
