Expo 52 build fails on Android when `expo-haptics` is in dependencies (v9.0.0)

[arndtvoges]

Summary

When using Expo 52 with config plugin 9.0.0 and expo-haptic set as separate dependecy in our package.json, the Android build fails because of duplicate classes.

"expo": "~52.0.14",
"expo-haptics": "~14.0.0",
"@config-plugins/react-native-branch": "^9.0.0",

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':app:mergeLibDexDebug'.
> A failure occurred while executing com.android.build.gradle.internal.tasks.DexMergingTaskDelegate
   > There was a failure while executing work items
      > A failure occurred while executing com.android.build.gradle.internal.tasks.DexMergingWorkAction
         > com.android.builder.dexing.DexArchiveMergerException: Error while merging dex archives: 
           Type expo.modules.haptics.BuildConfig is defined multiple times: /Users/abc/cde/node_modules/@config-plugins/react-native-branch/android/build/.transforms/a6b533ec208fe16ce95ede06ed3ac2c8/transformed/classes/classes_dex/classes.dex, /Users/abc/cde/node_modules/expo-haptics/android/build/.transforms/a3f17f527daa7622ddc6139fd2503168/transformed/classes/classes_dex/classes.dex

Adding the following to package.json as a workaround seems to solve the issue:

"expo": {
    "autolinking": {
      "exclude": [
        "expo-haptics"
      ]
    },
  },

Config Plugin

@config-plugins/react-native-branch

What platform(s) does this occur on?

Android

SDK Version

52.0.14

Reproducible demo

Create an Expo 52 project, include the packages above, run development Android build

A fix was merged for this here but it seems like it was never released as 9.0.1?

Closing since SDK 52 is EOL.
