Cannot update to XF 5.0.0.0.2612 and essentials 1.80 ExportRenderer no found - Need to re-submit app -App not compatible

Description

Hi - wondering if someone could shed some light into this. I need to submit the app because google sent us an email that the app is referencing an old version of android. So I went an updated to the latest XF and essentials and getting errors

Any suggestions why I am getting ExportRenderer no found and loads of other errors?

if of any help to diagnose the issue this happens in an android class library that we share not in the actual android project

I Have

1. Visual studio 17.7 2022
2. Xamarin forms 5.0.0.0.2612
3. Essentials 1.8.0

and I get "The type or namespace ExportRenderer could not be found"

Steps to Reproduce

1. Update to Xamarin forms 5.0.0.0.2612
2. update Essentials 1.8.0
3. Build solution and I get
   "The type or namespace ExportRenderer could not be found" and lots of errors...

looks as if it cannot find Platform.Android

Environment

[gabsamples6]

I think I might have resolved it. was not using some dependencies in the android class project

@gabsamples6 i have the same issue, how did you fix this? what dependencies?

[gabsamples6]

@Cvijo I think i removed all the old android support libraries and just have the androidx ones and that sorted it
