Direct local .aar file dependencies are not supported when building an AAR. React native reanimated

Question

Everything is perfect at simulator but when I am trying to build a signed released build apk, I am getting this error:

Direct local .aar file dependencies are not supported when building an AAR. The resulting AAR would be broken because the classes and Android resources from any local .aar file dependencies would not be packaged in the resulting AAR. Previous versions of the Android Gradle Plugin produce broken AARs in this case too (despite not throwing this error). The following direct local .aar file dependencies of the :react-native-reanimated project caused this error: /Users/fullmad/Projects/dollse-cab/dollseCab/node_modules/react-native-reanimated/android/react-native-reanimated-67-hermes.aar

I am clueless as this is first time happening. below is the debug log:

I have faced same issue,i tried with add module but not working so i changed my build tools gradle dependency version from 4.2.2 to 3.6.1 and this solution is working with if add .aar file in libs folder because gradle tools version more than 4.0.0 is not supported local .aar files.

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.6.1'

Direct local .aar file dependencies are not supported when building an AAR. React native reanimated
