Room has support for RxJava 2 but since RxJava 3 is out, RxJava 2 is now in maintenance mode and it'll be supported until February 28, 2021. RxJava 3 is not as big update as RxJava 2 was so I think it may not be a lot of work to support it in Room.

From Room point of view I think the biggest difference is new package structure:

Not sure if it affects Room but RxJava 3 supports Java 8:

RxJava 3 can live next to RxJava 2 in a project and there is an interop library that helps with making them work together:

but I think that it would still be good to have direct RxJava 3 support in Room to make the adoption of RxJava 3 faster.

Is this fixed? I'm still seeing this issue with AGP 8.1.0-beta01 + Gradle 8.1

Due to this bug in CI we hit configuration cache invalidation 100% of the time. Can we make sure the fix lands soon? And especially before 8.1.0 stable.

Aurimas, is this 8.1 blocking for Androidx? If not, feel free to remove the "Blocking release" label.
