I used fabric.io crashlytics in my Android app.
Recently, fabric.io has been deceased and it was recommended to migrate to Firebase. I followed the migration steps in the console and the app successfully migrated to Firebase (I see the crash logs). The mobile SDK was however not changed.
Firebase now warns that the fabric.io SDK is deprecated and will stop working after 15th November, 2020.
I followed the steps required for migration
https://firebase.google.com/docs/crashlytics/get-started?platform=android
and removed all stuff related to fabric.io from my application.
After that, my app begins to crash at startup! Here's the stack trace.

I returned back all dependencies to fabric.io in build.gradle - and the error disappeared.
Looks like Firebase Crashlytics internally uses fabric.io in its code and requires references to the deprecated fabric.io code, which is not mentioned in the Firebase help article.
Or I am doing something wrong?
