Some more info for a potential Gradle Engineer: I'm using both:

com.gradle.plugin-publish:1.2.2

and

com.vanniktech.maven.publish:0.29.0

(I previously used older versions). I'm also using Dokka (since I use Kotlin) to generate Javadocs,

plugin-publish

previously did not generate any javadocs on it's own. Notice that I'm not using the default configuration from

vanniktech.maven.publish

, instead:

configure(new GradlePlugin(new JavadocJar.Dokka("dokkaHtml")))

I did this because I don't want the default javadocs, but the Dokka docs. What I'm seeing is that with the above configuration I get duplicated javadocs being generated, it seems I cannot easily disable those generated by

gradle-publish

. This also seems to have lead to a failed upload to the Plugin Portal. I tried to reproduce by removing the duplicated javadocs, and the upload succeeded (although I had to increment the version number). Then I removed this version from the Gradle Portal, and tried again with the duplicated javadocs... now I'm stuck again, cannot remove that version cannot try again. This all leads to a few questions: • How can I recover those failed uploads? I want to upload 1.9.0 still (with Dokka javadocs) • How can I let the publication use Dokka javadocs and not the default one (without too much hackery).
