EasyLocalization seems not to be compatible with the latest SharedPreferences build

[rekire]

When I run my app with shared_preferences 2.2.3 and 2.3.2.

I get with this code:

void main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
  await EasyLocalization.ensureInitialized();
  // ...

The exception:

PlatformException(channel-error, Unable to establish connection on channel: "dev.flutter.pigeon.shared_preferences_android.SharedPreferencesApi.getAll"., null, null)

Here is the related code:

  static Future<void> initEasyLocation() async {
    final preferences = await SharedPreferences.getInstance();

The might be related issue flutter/flutter#153075 mentions:

Given that this is only affecting release Android builds, it feels like an R8 issue. It may be that the analysis is incorrectly determining that the legacy plugin class is unreachable and removing it.

I can sort this out since I use this code here in my build.gradle:

android {
  // ...
  buildTypes {
    debug {
      versionNameSuffix "-Development"
      debuggable true
      minifyEnabled false
      shrinkResources false
// ...

If this package is still maintained I would like to get some help to fix this issue.
