commons-logging httpclient issues with Android Studio 3

[nserror]

Updated to Android Studio 3 and now I cannot build for release. Fails with following errors in app.gradle at uservoice compile lines

Error:(115) Error: commons-logging defines classes that conflict with classes now provided by Android. Solutions include finding newer versions or alternative libraries that don't have the same problem (for example, for httpclient use HttpUrlConnection or okhttp instead), or repackaging the library using something like jarjar. [DuplicatePlatformClasses]

Line of code in question:

compile('com.uservoice:uservoice-android-sdk:1.2.+') {
        exclude module: 'commons-logging'
        exclude module: 'httpcore'
        exclude module: 'httpclient'
    }

[nserror]

I had to add the following to my build.gradle to fix this

configurations {
    all {
        exclude module: 'httpclient'
    }
}

I can't reproduce your issue. What version are you using? We switched to okhttp in 1.2.5.
