I am trying to use WorkManager 1.0.0-alpha09. and getting this error:
Program type already present: com.google.common.util.concurrent.ListenableFuture Mess
Take a look at https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/116154359.
The workaround is:
implementation("android.arch.work:work-runtime:1.0.0-alpha09") { exclude group: 'com.google.guava', module: 'listenablefuture' }
