The missing files seem to be part of the bouncycastle library. Here is my proguard file:

-keep class org.spongycastle.** { *; }
-dontwarn org.spongycastle.**

# When I remove this, java.security.cert.CertificateException: X.509 not found is thrown
-keep class org.bouncycastle.** { *; }
-keep interface org.bouncycastle.**

# I got the missing classes from missing_rules.txt and added the package names that created the problem here:
-keep class org.conscrypt.** { *; }
-keep class io.netty.** { *; }

-keep class com.aayushatharva.** { *; }

-keep class ** { *; }

build.gradle (app):

implementation "org.conscrypt:conscrypt-android:$conscrypt"
implementation 'org.bouncycastle:bcprov-jdk15on:1.69'
implementation 'org.bouncycastle:bcpkix-jdk15on:1.69'

Why does it still gives the error while I add the correct missing package names?

The missing classes warning tells that the mentioned classes are not present in the input (your source and dependencies) or in the referenced library (Android runtime library android.jar provided form the Platfrom SDK in this case). When R8 traces the program it will try to handle all the classes, methods and fields that it finds in the part of the program it considers live. Keeping all classes in a package will not change that. There are two options in this case:

  1. Find the missing dependency and add it to the project
  2. Ignore the warning using a -dontwarn as the class is expected to be missing.

For the warning on the class com.android.org.conscrypt.SSLParametersImpl adding a

-dontwarn com.android.org.conscrypt.SSLParametersImpl`

is the right thing to do, as looking at the source shows that the class extends a class which will be in the KitKat runtime, but not in the app (and also not in android.jar).

For the remaining warnings a similar decision has to be made.
