Using Visual Studio 2017, Community Edition.

I'm doing the tutorial (/guides/xamarin-forms/getting-started/hello-xamarin-forms/quickstart/) for Xamarin and I'm getting a similar error, whenever I try to update any of the Android packages. If I try to update Xamarin.Androix.Support.Vector.Drawable, I get the following error message:

Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State Error Unable to resolve dependencies. 'Xamarin.Android.Support.Vector.Drawable 25.4.0.2' is not compatible with 'Xamarin.Android.Support.v7.AppCompat 23.3.0 constraint: Xamarin.Android.Support.Vector.Drawable (= 23.3.0)'. 0

I went to the Android SDK manager and updated everything I could find there, still no luck. Any advice is much appreciated.

You need to first upgrade Xamarin.Android.Support.v7.AppCompat. If it's an option, you could just upgrade ALL packages in one shoot using update option from Packages context menu on the solution explorer.
