• What went wrong:
  A problem occurred evaluating project ':app'.

Could not find method fterEvaluate() for arguments [build_8a95qgiavjx0ev0fdlftv5rhy$_run_closure4@c9821b4] on project ':app' of type
org.gradle.api.Project.

what went wrong

IMHO There's no need to use this custom app_build.gradle anymore as proper multi-arch support has landed in mainline flutter...
