Task :intercom_intercom-react-native:packageDebugResources FAILED

I recently upgraded our app several React Native versions from 0.70.x -> 74.x and after this effort I am now receiving the following error from Intercom on Android (fwiw iOS runs fine):

> Task :app:processDebugGoogleServices
Parsing json file: C:\repos\Opendorse-Mobile\android\app\google-services.json

> Task :intercom_intercom-react-native:packageDebugResources FAILED

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
A problem was found with the configuration of task ':intercom_intercom-react-native:packageDebugResources' (type 'MergeResources').
  - Gradle detected a problem with the following location: 'C:\repo\node_modules\@intercom\intercom-react-native\android\build\generated\res\resValues\debug'.

    Reason: Task ':intercom_intercom-react-native:packageDebugResources' uses this output of task ':intercom-react-native:generateDebugResValues' without declaring an explicit or implicit dependency. This can lead to incorrect results being produced, depending on what order the tasks are executed.

    Possible solutions:
      1. Declare task ':intercom-react-native:generateDebugResValues' as an input of ':intercom_intercom-react-native:packageDebugResources'.
      2. Declare an explicit dependency on ':intercom-react-native:generateDebugResValues' from ':intercom_intercom-react-native:packageDebugResources' using Task#dependsOn.
      3. Declare an explicit dependency on ':intercom-react-native:generateDebugResValues' from ':intercom_intercom-react-native:packageDebugResources' using Task#mustRunAfter.

    For more information, please refer to https://docs.gradle.org/8.3/userguide/validation_problems.html#implicit_dependency in the Gradle documentation.

Deprecated Gradle features were used in this build, making it incompatible with Gradle 9.0.

You can use '--warning-mode all' to show the individual deprecation warnings and determine if they come from your own scripts or plugins.

For more on this, please refer to https://docs.gradle.org/8.3/userguide/command_line_interface.html#sec:command_line_warnings in the Gradle documentation.

0.70.x -> 74.x contained some pretty massive architectural changes to some native files. So I imagine the issue is stemming from somewhere within my gradle implementation, but after much debugging I haven't been able to narrow into it yet. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated!

Things I have tried:

• Nearly every possible combo of task declaration via the "Possible solutions". I can get past the immediate error, but it opens up dozens more similar ones (which makes me think there is something fundamentally wrong with my gradle implementation or version somewhere)
• Version Upgrades and downgrades of react-native, Gradle, Kotlin, etc.
• Ensuring I have everything effectively the same source code as the example app they provided (which I DID get to run)
• Going back and the forth with the Intercom team (they have not provided much insight)
• Tweaking the gradle files in just about everyway possible

Removing the intercom linking from the settings.gradle as well as the implementation as a 3rd party dependency within the app/build.gradle. In more recent versions, React Native will handle the linking automatically.

So remove in `settings.gradle:

include ':intercom-react-native'

...

project(':intercom-react-native').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/@intercom/intercom-react-native/android')

And within app/build.gradle remove:

dependencies {
...
    implementation project(':intercom-react-native')
...
}
