Cannot use applicationIdSuffix in the profile mode (Flutter 3.32) #169215
Description
Steps to reproduce
After installing Flutter 3.32, we cannot use a custom Android app suffix id for the profile mode. We use <app_id>.profile as the app id on Android to be able to install different flavors in parallel.
It seems to happen only when a native plugin is installed, like shared_preferences
> flutter run
Launching lib/main.dart on sdk gphone64 x86 64 in debug mode...
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
* What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring project ':shared_preferences_android'.
> Library projects cannot set applicationIdSuffix. applicationIdSuffix is set to '.profile' in build type 'profile'.
* Try:
> Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace.
> Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.
> Run with --scan to get full insights.
