How can I disable kotlinMultiplatform MavenPublication? I have a android project :cabinet, that depends on multiplatfom project :cabinetcore through api project(':cabinetcore'). When I try to publish :cabinet I've got this error. I don't need kotlinMultiplatform publication, only release (which is mine publication). How can I disable its automatic creation?

Hello, is this thread related? Maybe the final advice from it would help.

[Соловьев Георгий]

No, I don't need to remove the task, but I need to remove kotlinMultiplatform MavenPublication

[Artyom Degtyarev [JB]]

You mean removing the dependency on it? Please show the Gradle script you use to depend on this release publication.

release is mine MavenPublication, and I don't need kotlinMultiplatform, which is automatically added by kotlin plugin

@Artyom Degtyarev [JB] so is there any way to remove kotlinMultiplatform MavenPublication?

[Artyom Degtyarev [JB]]

I asked my teammate yesterday, still waiting for advice.

@Artyom Degtyarev [JB] Did you teammate respond with advice already? 😉

[Artyom Degtyarev [JB]]

Oh. I’ve made a request, but it has gone lost in time.
I’ll try to find some answers tomorrow.
Is the problem relevant at all? Maybe it is worth a YouTrack ticket?

[Paul Woitaschek]

No I think my issue is different enough; just wanted to check if a possible solution will solve my issue as well

[Artyom Degtyarev [JB]]

Well, I’m still waiting for an answer. 😅
But, from what I can tell based on the code from kotlin repo, this publication will be always created when you have both kotlin-multiplatform and maven-publish plugins applied. And, as far as I understood while searching for more general solutions, there is no option to remove a declared publication from the project.
