@@androidsdk//:dx_jar_import' is misplaced
Description of the bug:
/bazel_tools/tools/android/BUILD:248:12: in runtime_deps attribute of java_binary rule @@bazel_tools//tools/android:dexer: alias '//external:android/dx_jar_import' referring to filegroup rule '@@androidsdk//:dx_jar_import' is misplaced here (expected cc_binary, cc_library, genrule, genproto, java_import, java_library, java_proto_library, java_lite_proto_library, proto_library, sh_binary or sh_library) and '@@androidsdk//:dx_jar_import' does not have mandatory providers: 'CcInfo' or 'JavaInfo'. Since this rule was created by the macro 'java_binary', the error might have been caused by the macro implementation

@kiritgothi Could you please provide complete steps to reproduce this issue? Thanks
I am building "android-testdpc" project with "bazel build testdpc" command. Unfortunately I got error in both windows and ubuntu. This error comes from cache file of bazel which build.

Are you using the rules from github.com/bazelbuild/rules-android or the built-in ("native") android rules? Do you see the same failure if you pass --enable_bzlmod=false?
Answering my own question, looking at https://github.com/googlesamples/android-testdpc/blob/master/BUILD, these are the native rules.
I wasn't able to reproduce this error, here or during debugging in https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/21632 with a fork of android-testdpc (at the time it had only 1 commit difference that shouldn't be relevant here) -- are there any other details you can give to help reproduce the error?
I did some tests as well on two different machines (Mac OS and Debian) and I cannot reproduce this with Bazel v7.1.0.
I think this may be happening with bzlmod projects when the $ANDROID_HOME environment variable is not set
I faced that issue but resolved with

export ANDROID_HOME={YOUR_HOME_DIR}/Android/Sdk
I'm experiencing the same issue for the first time while building this new Bazel build for testDPC 9.0.6.
I've tried export ANDROID_HOME={YOUR_HOME_DIR}/Android/Sdk and type env command on the terminal if the environment variable is set, but the issue still persist.
I'm using Bazel v7.1.1 and Debian OS. I will get back if ever I find a fix for this.

I tried this one again and it works. Make sure that you run export ANDROID_HOME={YOUR_HOME_DIR}/Android/Sdk inside android-testdpc folder, after that run bazel build testdpc
android_sdk_repository still references dx: https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_android/blob/8ab67ca94822a78ad9acca87734beab3d5f69411/rules/android_sdk_repository/helper.bzl#L398-L411 that should just be removed
