Ignite base application does not build: could not find play-services-gcm

See original GitHub issue

Steps 1 and 2 of running generated app completed (with messages about npmconf and cross-spawn-asynch deprecation). Step 3: Ran a Genymotion API 23, attempted to build with react-native run-android and received:

A problem occurred configuring project ‘:app’. A problem occurred configuring project ‘:react-native-device-info’. Could not resolve all dependencies for configuration ‘:react-native-device-info:_debugCompile’. > Could not find com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:8.3.0.

I tried a second time after remembering to change my build.gradle targetSdkVersion to 23 and received the same output. I’m guessing I need to update the play services version to the newest one, but I can’t find where I need to do that.

Can you try creating a new Genymotion app with api 22? In 23 the permissions system changed drastically, and some googling seems to reveal Android 6 + React Native + Redbox as a potential issue.

We’ve already ruled out Ignite, so let’s see if we can rule out some more.
