Gradle fails to resolve dependencies in Android Studio

Question

Whenever I add a dependency from an remote repository (jcenter) in Android Studio 1.1 (OS X) I get the following error upon syncing Gradle:

Error:(26, 13) Fa         


        

Answer 1

I had a similar problem with a library on github, which stated to install it as:

dependencies {
    compile 'com.github.chrisbanes.photoview:library:1.2.4'
}

This workaround seem to work, although it's suboptimal because it doesn't fetch a specific version and leads to Android Studio warnings:

dependencies {
    compile 'com.github.chrisbanes.photoview:library:+'
}
