title: Unity3d: CommandInvokationFailure: Gradle build failed
body: <p>Project build for Android (Unity3d 2018.3.11f1) worked with previous version of Unity - now i get a error message. Project uses Firebase, complete SDK / NDK / JDK is UpToDate. </p>
  
  <p>Every solution i could find online, but nothing helped.
  Configured manuel gradle Template with "multiDexEnabled true" - doesnt help.</p>
  
  <p>// mainTemplate.gradle script:</p>
