Android Gradle library dependency with library dependency using Nexus

I'm switching my project over to using Gradle and an internal SonaType Nexus for hosting my dependencies. My core project depends on library project A and library project A has a dependency on library project B. My issue is that as soon as I add LibA to my main project I get this error: "Module version com.example:LibA:1.1 depends on libraries but is not a library itself" I have no issues adding library projects with jar dependencies with the same build script. I have seen people doing this successfully with LOCAL (in the project) android libraries but no one doing it with maven repos. Is this a bug in gradle or did I misconfigure the library builds? Core Project Build ``` buildscript { repositories { mavenCentral() } dependencies { classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.6.+' } } apply plugin: 'android' repositories { maven { url "http://localhost:8081/nexus/content/repositories/releases/" } maven { url "http://localhost:8081/nexus/content/repositories/central/" } } android { compileSdkVersion 19 buildToolsVersion "19.0.0" defaultConfig { minSdkVersion 14 targetSdkVersion 19 } } dependencies { compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:+' compile('com.example:LibA:1.+') } ``` LibA Build ``` buildscript { repositories { mavenCentral() } dependencies { classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.6.+' } } apply plugin: 'android-library' android { compileSdkVersion 19 buildToolsVersion "19.0.0" defaultConfig { minSdkVersion 9 targetSdkVersion 17 versionCode = "3" versionName = "1.2" } android { sourceSets { main { manifest.srcFile 'AndroidManifest.xml' java.srcDirs = ['src'] resources.srcDirs = ['src'] aild.srcDirs = ['src'] renderscript.srcDirs = ['src'] res.srcDirs = ['res'] assets.srcDirs = ['assets'] } } } repositories { mavenCentral() } dependencies { compile ('com.example:LibB:1.+') } ... ``` LibB Build ``` buildscript { repositories { mavenCentral() } dependencies { classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.6.+' } } apply plugin: 'android-library' android { compileSdkVersion 19 buildToolsVersion "19.0.0" defaultConfig { minSdkVersion 9 targetSdkVersion 17 versionCode = "1" versionName = "1.0" } android { sourceSets { main { manifest.srcFile 'AndroidManifest.xml' java.srcDirs = ['src'] resources.srcDirs = ['src'] aild.srcDirs = ['src'] renderscript.srcDirs = ['src'] res.srcDirs = ['res'] assets.srcDirs = ['assets'] } } } repositories { mavenCentral() } dependencies { } ... ``` Edit: Adding -info output for the error. ``` * What went wrong: A problem occurred configuring project ':GradleTest'. > Failed to notify project evaluation listener. > Module version com.example:LibA:1.+ depends on libraries but is not a library itself ``` Edit 2: Adding my local maven upload script for LibA ``` apply plugin: 'maven' apply plugin: 'signing' group = "com.example" version = defaultConfig.versionName configurations { archives { extendsFrom configurations.default } } signing { required { has("release") && gradle.taskGraph.hasTask("uploadArchives") } sign configurations.archives } uploadArchives { configuration = configurations.archives repositories.mavenDeployer { beforeDeployment { MavenDeployment deployment -> signing.signPom(deployment) } repository(url: sonatypeRepo) { authentication(userName: sonatypeUsername, password: sonatypePassword) } pom.project { name 'com-example' packaging 'aar' description 'none' url 'https://internal github link' scm { url 'scm:git@https://internal github link' connection 'git@https://internal github link' developerConnection 'git@https://internal github link' } licenses { license { name 'example' url 'example' distribution 'example' } } developers { developer { id 'example' name 'example' email 'example' } } groupId "com.example" artifactId rootProject.name //LibA version defaultConfig.versionName } } } ```
