Does anyone here have had this problem with kapt and Dagger in multi-module projects ?

> Task :app:kaptDebugKotlin FAILED
e: error: cannot access HttpClientEngine
  class file for io.ktor.client.engine.HttpClientEngine not found
  Consult the following stack trace for details.
  com.sun.tools.javac.code.Symbol$CompletionFailure: class file for io.ktor.client.engine.HttpClientEngine not found

It seems to occur because a dependency (Ktor-client in this case) is defined as implementation in a different Gradle module (feature) than the one the component is created (app).

try adding ktor client as compileOnly dependecy to the app module
