java - Permissions Declaration Form still showing in Google Play Console even with updated APK uploaded without READ_CALL_LOG

TL;DR

Google Play Console forces to show Permissions Declaration Form (see below) as soon as "Create Release" button clicked even if updated APK uploaded without READ_CALL_LOG which caused the warning email from Google before.

Question

How to avoid the Permissions Declaration Form which looks irrelevant if releasing updated APK without sensitive permissions?

Problem in details

  1. PRODUCTION and ALPHA releases were submitted with READ_CALL_LOG permission before Google emailed about prohibit to use it.

  2. Now, during creating new release and once clicking "Create release" button -- it disappears in favor to "Edit release" button, however, there is no release behind (e.g. in BETA track). The only message "You have a release in production/beta/alpha that hasn't been rolled out" within the respective track section is showing.

  3. There is also warning in App Release menu item "You can't edit this app until you create a new app release declaring sensitive permissions.". So, it would be nice to create release which doesn't use sensitive permissions at all.

Could you please advice.

Not appropriate Permissions Declaration Form

Disclaimer

  • "No" option was removed since mid March (see details in comments), so the suggested solution doesn't work anymore.

Solution (does NOT work since mid March)

  • Upload app binary without sensitive permissions inside, i.e. remove their usage from the app.
  • Submit this version with "No" selected for Compliance Status at "Permissions Declaration Form". Note: at this stage you will see the warning "You must meet the permissions policy..."
  • For the next version all warnings will disappear as soon as app will be submitted. Hence, on the next app upload -- no warning and forms will be appread.

P.S. Unfortunately, there was no options found how to avoid the form at all without app version release.
