I have searched the forum but could not find anything relevant.

Thank you for your help.

Start by reproducing the :play-services-core:transformClassesWithDexBuilderForDebug task and inspect the build inputs named in the report: vtm-microg-theme.jar and wearable-lib-0.1.0-10-g617a43e.jar. Trace the reported ASM ClassReader and DesugaringClassAnalyzer failures to identify the incompatible input or build configuration. Done means the debug build completes without these processing errors.
