Research direction

The issue does not name a build file or test, so first locate the declaration for com.squareup.retrofit2:retrofit and inspect how dependencies are tested in this repository. Run the existing test suite before and after updating it to 3.0.0; done means the fixed version is used and the tests still pass.
