Flutter - Overridden dependencies

Question

After running "flutter pub get", I got this error:

Warning: You are using these overridden dependencies:

! path 1.6.4

attach your pubspec.yaml files code with your question. – Saiful Islam Nov 19 '20 at 10:37 — Saiful Islam, Nov 19 '20 at 10:37

That's not an issue. That happens because you (or any other transitive dependency) may be overriding some dependency that you are already using. For example, if you are using path: 0.X.X and some other dependency use dependency_overrides to make sure that is using path: 1.6.4, it will present you that message.

Overall, you shouldn't have to worry with that and sometimes it is actually required in order to some dependencies work all together.

Please give more details so that i can answer it better. Attach your pubspec.yaml.

But now i can tell you some methods which should work.. first of all see if you are using the latest version of all dependencies or not then:

try:

restarting your ide
flutter clean

if these two don't work then at last try

flutter pub cache repair

I encountered the same error after cloning a flutter repository. I initially mistook the error for being a build issue when it's just a warning that won't stop your app from running.

I solved the build issue I was having with the freshly cloned project by running this command inside the app's root directory: flutter pub run build_runner build

When I run this, I get `Could not find package "build_runner". Did you forget to add a dependency?` – Ky - May 09 '23 at 00:26
