I installed a new android studio and tried to build the CsoundForAndroid project but then it said I needed to update gradle to 8.9.
So I did and now I get this error

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring project ':CsoundAndroid'.
> Failed to notify project evaluation listener.
   > org/gradle/api/plugins/MavenPlugin

Any clues?

yes, that much I know, but how can I change the maven plugin? It’s not called in the gradle file, but from somewhere else?
I have gradle 8.9

I tried that. It seems to be a different version numbering, the 8.9 is supposed to use 4.x or whatever,
if you change it, the package is not found or something.

Thanks, that seemed to clear that issue. Following that I had to add a namespace to each project and then I got
a successful build. Now I have to figure out how to test the examples.
