No precise moment when this kind of dex problem started to occure. Clearing project, invalidating cache does not help. It seems like I have problem with intellij annotations, but including or excluding it did not have any effect on it.

When I added solution from this post, the problem appeared to be solved, but after switching flavor, or branch dex problem appears again randomly. Is there any step by step solution, how to get rid of dex problem in general ?

Excluding the annotations module within the loaded Kotlin package did the trick for me. However, you're using multiple Kotlin versions here:

implementation "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib:$kotlinVersion"
implementation("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jre7:$kotlinVersion") {
    exclude group: 'org.jetbrains', module: 'annotations'
}

I would recommend to exclude the annotations within the the non jre7version as well:

    implementation "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib:$kotlinVersion"{
        exclude group: 'org.jetbrains', module: 'annotations'
    }
    implementation("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jre7:$kotlinVersion") {
        exclude group: 'org.jetbrains', module: 'annotations'
    }

Also a clean build can resolve various caching errors. If this doesn't work I would recommend to check out a previous version of your project where the gradle build process didn't fail and include the new dependencies step by step. With this approach you can easily find the conflicting packages.

I had an sdk that used

com.google.code.findbugs:jsr305:3.0.2

and an app that used:

org.jetbrains:annotations-java5:15.0

Deleting the app dependency resolved the issue.

In my case I had this issue " Type org.jetbrains.annotations.Nullable is defined multiple times ". I solved it deleting package " org.jetbrains.annotations" by deleting "org" folder inside res folder of the application.
