Things I’ve done to figure out my issue

• I used upgrade-helper to do my upgrade.

Upgrading version

0.72.6 -> 0.76.0

Description

After making the necessary changes, i keep encountering the following error, the local is one of the productFlavours i specified in the app/build.gradle

Could not find method local() for arguments [build_8jja1bi60n2os0zcgj2y070gu$_run_closure2$_closure14$_closure28$_closure29@59f56bb8] on BuildType$AgpDecorated_Decorated{name=productFlavors, debuggable=false, testCoverageEnabled=false, jniDebuggable=false, pseudoLocalesEnabled=false, renderscriptDebuggable=false, renderscriptOptimLevel=3, minifyEnabled=false, zipAlignEnabled=true, signingConfig=null, embedMicroApp=true, mBuildConfigFields={}, mResValues={}, mProguardFiles=[], mConsumerProguardFiles=[], mManifestPlaceholders={}} of type com.android.build.gradle.internal.dsl.BuildType$AgpDecorated. * Try:

How productFlavors are being done, it is working in my previous version

        productFlavors {
            local {
                resValue "string", "app_name", "APP-LOCAL"
                buildConfigField "boolean", "TESTING_MODE", "true"
                applicationIdSuffix ".dev"
            }
            dev {
                resValue "string", "app_name", "APP-DEV"
                buildConfigField "boolean", "TESTING_MODE", "true"
                applicationIdSuffix ".dev"
            }
            staging {
                resValue "string", "app_name", "APP-STG"
                buildConfigField "boolean", "TESTING_MODE", "true"
                applicationIdSuffix ".stg"
            }
            prd {
                resValue "string", "app_name", "APP"
                buildConfigField "boolean", "TESTING_MODE", "false"
            }
        }

Reproducible demo

after making the changes, as long as i run a building method, it will show the error
