If I enable Android Link tool & Android Dex tool the build fails in Xamarin Android.
In my app I enabled these two configurations
r8
d8
After enabling that I am getting the below error.
Build FAILED.

Since I am targeting my app in both Zebra and Other consumer devices I am using this line of code in manifest.

Could you please help

As per the update from Microsoft. Zebra has to fix this. Please fix this and push a new nuget package.

Hello.
Yes, you are correct.
You have to use Nuget package to install EMDK for Xamarin.

Hello.
Have you installed EMDK?
As far as I understand EMDK is not installed or is installed incorrectly.

Exactly the same issue here. Using the Symbol.XamarinEMDK Nuget package (version 4.0.0.3). Building with Visual Studio Enterprise 16.2.3 on Windows 10.
As far as I am aware, there is no option to "install" EMDK for Xamarin beyond installing the Nuget package, am I correct?
