The aar file doesn't contain the nested dependencies and doesn't have a pom file which describes the dependencies used by the library.

It means that, if you are importing a aar file using a flatDir repo you have to specify the dependencies also in your project.

In your case you have to add in your app (not the library):

compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.1'
compile 'com.squareup.picasso:picasso:2.5.2'

If you use the gradle maven plugin to deploy the aar to a local repo, then you can get transitive dependencies to work. Here's how to do that:
