Execution failed for task ':native_pdf_renderer:compileDebugKotlin'.

[hydev777]

I upgraded flutter from version 2 to 3, now the project is unable to build in Android due to an error related to native_pdf_renderer, the specific error shown is this one:

e: C:\flutter\.pub-cache\hosted\pub.dartlang.org\native_pdf_renderer-4.0.1\android\src\main\kotlin\io\scer\native_pdf_renderer\NativePdfRendererPlugin.kt: (124, 29): Type mismatch: inferred type is String? but String was expected
e: C:\flutter\.pub-cache\hosted\pub.dartlang.org\native_pdf_renderer-4.0.1\android\src\main\kotlin\io\scer\native_pdf_renderer\NativePdfRendererPlugin.kt: (138, 25): Type mismatch: inferred type is String? but String was expected

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':native_pdf_renderer:compileDebugKotlin'.
> A failure occurred while executing org.jetbrains.kotlin.compilerRunner.GradleCompilerRunnerWithWorkers$GradleKotlinCompilerWorkAction
   > Compilation error. See log for more details
