My andorid app depends on an aar file. The aar comes with its own proguard file inside. So I unzipped the aar and added the following in the proguard file:

-assumenosideeffects class android.util.Log {
    public static *** d(...);
    public static *** v(...);
    public static *** i(...);
    public static *** w(...);
    public static *** e(...);
}

I then rezipped the aar and compiled my app. Here is the relevant part of my apps’s build.gradle:

release {
            signingConfig signingConfigs.debug
            shrinkResources (findProperty('android.enableShrinkResourcesInReleaseBuilds')?.toBoolean() ?: false)
            minifyEnabled enableProguardInReleaseBuilds
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile("proguard-android.txt"), "proguard-rules.pro"
        }

Proguard is removing all logs from my own app. But I can still see logs coming from the aar.

What am I missing?
