Cannot resolve aar project dependencies for task 'lint' on a clean project (race condition?)

[bergetp]

Hi,

Thank you for maintaining this, hopefully this will be solved in the official gradle plugin soon!

We are having an issue with running 'build' on a clean project. The dependency resolution for the lint task isn't able to resolve the dependencies.

How to reproduce

1. Go to examples
2. Run

rm -rf build; rm -rf  lib-aar2/build; rm -rf lib-aar/build; rm -rf lib-main/build; ./gradlew clean lib-main:build

Workaround

One workaround I found was to remove the line which adds the 'embed' dependencies to project dependencies and declare the dependencies twice (once with 'embed' and once with 'api'). like this:

embed project(path: ':lib-aar2', configuration:'default')
api project(':lib-aar2')

To me this indicates that there is some sort of race condition? Are the dependencies added too late to the project when using the listener?

Failure message

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

Thank you, it works! Added a follow up PR.

How did you figure it out btw? Are there any detailed release notes on changes for 4.0.0?
