I've run into build failures after clearing home and project gradle caches. This is after reseting all changes back to a working state.

Specifically trying to resolve a dependency. Gradle is searching for a library as a plugin.

I've done several "deep cleans", fresh repository, fresh/updated Android Studio.

Any thoughts?

Could you show an error message? What does "searching for a library as a plugin"

frag-nav is not available on mavenCentral, this is probably you have this issue

[gildor]

or some issue with your repositories, looks that it uses gradlePlugins() repo

[gildor]

we also use this lib and we have to republish it to own repo

gradlePluginPortal()? I am using it

[Ky]

It is published to own repo and repository w/ credentials are set. If I pull down same repo on another machine it works

[gildor]

just a guess, you can try to do
./gradlew assembleDebug --refresh-dependencies

[gildor]

if it will be the same issue, check where it actually failing, who is requesting it, you can also use gradle build scan for this

for posterity's sake; I did run gradlew assemble --refresh-dependencies however I was subsequently trying to build a debug variant. User error
