I had to migrate my android project to new version of Android Studio and Android pluging for Gradle.
I followed all instructions at https://developer.android.com/stu
maintainer for com.google.http-client:google-http-client-parent
here. During a release yesterday, a pom.xml was somehow released. All other artifacts seem fine AFAICT minus this one pom. Sincere apologies for the hassle.
We have pushed a fix to this problem (manually release the missing pom.xml). Please try now and let me know if 1.24.1 does not work. We generally track issues at https://github.com/google/google-http-java-client/issues.
