Hi @joost-klitsie
Thank you for reporting this issue, we are working on updating this part of our SDK to fix this one very soon. Until now if you are using a custom lint configurations can you please share it with us?

@MohamedHefny we don't use custom lint rules (only some suppressions that are unrelated). This is the "out of the box" Android lint check. For example, running the gradle command lintDebug on the android project.

Hi @joost-klitsie, Is this something which is being looked at now as the targetSdk version is now 34?

If the fix is not being prioritized, does it make sense to suppress the lint error for now so that lint checks of client apps do not error out due to this issue?
