Q: Could not find org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient:4.5.6 when adding Firebase Crashlytics I removed Fabrics Crashlytics to replace it with Firebase Crashlytics.
I followed the steps mentioned here: https://firebase.google.com/docs/crashlytics/upgrade-sdk?platform=android
I get the error:
Could not find org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient:4.5.6.
Searched in the following locations:
  - https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/org/apache/httpcomponents/httpclient/4.5.6/httpclient-4.5.6.pom
If the artifact you are trying to retrieve can be found in the repository but without metadata in 'Maven POM' format, you need to adjust the 'metadataSources { ... }' of the repository declaration.
Required by:
    project :myProject > com.google.firebase:firebase-crashlytics-gradle:2.1.1 > com.google.firebase:firebase-crashlytics-buildtools:2.1.1

Do you see how to solve this problem? 
Thanks.

A: Google's Maven Repository doesn't track org.apache.httpcomponents. This may work:
buildscript {
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath "com.google.firebase:firebase-crashlytics-gradle:2.1.1"
    }
}
