[FIXED] Android Build failed with duplicate class error

Issue

I'm getting duplicate class error when building my application.

Execution failed for task ':app:transformDexArchiveWithExternalLibsDexMergerForDebug'.
> com.android.builder.dexing.DexArchiveMergerException: Error while merging dex archives: 
  Program type already present: javax.annotation.Nonnegative$Checker

I would like to track down javax.annotation.Nonnegative$Checker and which libraries are using it. Please guide me how to track duplicate classes in android.

Solution

I resolved this by upgrading dagger version from 2.10 to 2.15. Hope this helps someone.
