Hi Thomas, I also had the same problem, and came up with the same solution as you. I was wondering how can that be if everyone is saying to put it in src/main. I came across your thread here, and I guess I feel better someone else also experienced the same thing. But I'm wondering what is going on that everyone else does it differently. Maybe they don't notice the dupes?
