Android dependency has different version for the compile and runtime

After updating Android Studio from Canary 3 to Canary 4, the following error is thrown at the build time.

Android dependency 'com.android.support:support-support-v4' has different version for the compile (25.2.0) and runtime (26.0.0-beta2) classpath. You should manually set the same version via DependencyResolution.

I ran a complete search throughout the project and the version 25.1.0 is no where used.

App-build.gradle

android {
compileSdkVersion 26
buildToolsVersion '26.0.0'


defaultConfig {
    applicationId "com.xxx.xxxx"
    minSdkVersion 14
    targetSdkVersion
    versionCode 1
    versionName "1.0"
    multiDexEnabled true

}


buildTypes {
    debug {
        debuggable true
    }
    release {
        debuggable false
        minifyEnabled true
        shrinkResources true
        proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
    }

    lintOptions {
        abortOnError false
    }

}}
dependencies {
implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
implementation project(':core')
implementation com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:9.0.0'

implementation('com.crashlytics.sdk.android:crashlytics:2.6.5@aar') {
    transitive = true
}
implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.1'
implementation 'com.flurry.android:analytics:7.0.0'
annotationProcessor 'com.jakewharton:butterknife-compiler:8.6.0'
implementation 'com.jakewharton:butterknife:8.6.0'
implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.0.2'
}

Library-build.gradle:

apply plugin: 'com.android.library'
android {
compileSdkVersion 26
buildToolsVersion '26.0.0'

defaultConfig {
    minSdkVersion 14
    targetSdkVersion
    versionCode 1
    versionName "1.0"
}

}

dependencies {
implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
implementation files('libs/model.jar')
testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
implementation 'com.android.support:percent:26.0.0-beta2'
implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.0.0-beta2'
implementation 'com.android.support:support-core-utils:26.0.0-beta2'

implementation 'com.squareup.retrofit2:retrofit:2.0.2'
implementation 'com.squareup.picasso:picasso:2.4.0'
implementation 'com.squareup.retrofit2:converter-gson:2.0.2'
implementation 'com.squareup.okhttp3:logging-interceptor:3.2.0'
implementation 'uk.co.chrisjenx:calligraphy:2.2.0'
implementation 'com.google.code.gson:gson:2.2.4'
implementation 'com.android.support:design:26.0.0-beta2'
implementation 'com.github.PhilJay:MPAndroidChart:v3.0.1'

}

Note: Project was building fine in Canary 3


Use this code in your buildscript (build.gradle root):

subprojects {
  project.configurations.all {
     resolutionStrategy.eachDependency { details ->
        if (details.requested.group == 'com.android.support'
              && !details.requested.name.contains('multidex') ) {
           details.useVersion "version which should be used - in your case 26.0.0-beta2"
        }
     }
  }
}

I had the same error, what solve my problem was. In my library instead of using compile or implementation i use "api". So in the end my dependencies:

dependencies {
api fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
api files('libs/model.jar')
testApi 'junit:junit:4.12'
api 'com.android.support:percent:26.0.0-beta2'
api 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.0.0-beta2'
api 'com.android.support:support-core-utils:26.0.0-beta2'

api 'com.squareup.retrofit2:retrofit:2.0.2'
api 'com.squareup.picasso:picasso:2.4.0'
api 'com.squareup.retrofit2:converter-gson:2.0.2'
api 'com.squareup.okhttp3:logging-interceptor:3.2.0'
api 'uk.co.chrisjenx:calligraphy:2.2.0'
api 'com.google.code.gson:gson:2.2.4'
api 'com.android.support:design:26.0.0-beta2'
api 'com.github.PhilJay:MPAndroidChart:v3.0.1'
}

You can find more info about "api", "implementation" in this link https://stackoverflow.com/a/44493379/3479489
