I'm trying to build my Android Studio project with gradle. I added a compile rule as follows:

    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:6.5.87'

However it gives the following error:

Error:Module version com.google.android.gms:play-services:6.5.87 depends on libraries but is not a library itself

I have tried changing version and excluding support-v4 module, as mentioned here:

Crouton depends on libraries but is not a library itself

But I cannot solve the error. Any help would be appreciated.

EDIT: Here is my dependency list from my build.gradle file:

dependencies {
    //    compile project(':library')
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:21.0.2'
    compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:21.0.2'
    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:6.5.87'
    compile 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient-android:4.3.5'
    compile('org.apache.httpcomponents:httpmime:4.3.5') {
        exclude module: 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient'
    }
}

Is your project a library project? – stkent Feb 02 '15 at 11:59
Nope, it is not a library project. – user2604150 Feb 02 '15 at 12:01
The problem occured when we changed the gms version from 6.1 to 6.5.87 – user2604150 Feb 02 '15 at 12:02
please post your build.gradle – IntelliJ Amiya Feb 02 '15 at 13:04
I'm using `play-services:6.5.87` without error. Have you tried cleaning your build? – myanimal Feb 02 '15 at 13:36
@IntelliJAmiya I have edited the question and added my dependency list. – user2604150 Feb 02 '15 at 14:06
@myanimal yeah, I have tried it many times but nothing changed. – user2604150 Feb 02 '15 at 14:09
I have also changed my operating system, switched to Ubuntu 14.04 from Windows 7, but I get the exact same error. – user2604150 Feb 02 '15 at 14:17
Are you using Jcenter or MavenCentral as your repository? Try Jcenter if you're using MaveCentral. – myanimal Feb 02 '15 at 14:18
@myanimal I'm using jcenter as my repository. – user2604150 Feb 02 '15 at 14:21
I'm running out of ideas. Make sure you've updated everything in SDK manager. Also make sure in your gradle.build file that you're using the latest support libraries (appcompat-v7:21.0.3) and build tools version (21.1.2) – myanimal Feb 02 '15 at 14:26
Me too. I have tried (appcompat-v7:21.0.3) and build tools version (21.1.2) but nothing changed. – user2604150 Feb 02 '15 at 14:42
I have tried sync my gradle with your dependencies, and pop up the error about three of com.comodo had the problem. – bjiang Feb 02 '15 at 22:53
or you can try put `publishNonDefault true` in android in your `build.gradle`, please refer to [here](http://tools.android.com/tech-docs/new-build-system/user-guide#TOC-Library-Publication) – bjiang Feb 02 '15 at 23:06
