While running a a freshly installed app, I find this Warning messages in the logcat:
W/PackageManager( 1233): Couldn't remove dex file for package: at location /data/app/xx.yy.zz-1/base.apk, retcode=-1 I/SmartHeartBeat( 1233): listenAppUpdate, package: xx.yy.zz has been Updated W/PackageParser( 2909): Unknown element under <manifest>: meta-data at /storage/emulated/0/xxx/zz.apk Binary XML file line #143 Trying to track down the offending meta-data element tagged Binary XML file line #143, I find the following:
# aapt l -a zz.apk AndroidManifest.xml META-INF/CERT.RSA META-INF/CERT.SF META-INF/MANIFEST.MF ... Android manifest: N: android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android E: manifest (line=2) ... A: platformBuildVersionCode=(type 0x10)0x19 (Raw: "25") A: platformBuildVersionName="7.1.1" (Raw: "7.1.1") ... E: meta-data (line=143) A: android:name(0x01010003)="android.support.VERSION" (Raw: "android.support.VERSION") A: android:value(0x01010024)="25.3.1" (Raw: "25.3.1") ... But I don't have anything like this in my AndroidManifest.xml and the only other reference to "25.3.1" is in my gradle.build file, which are the dependency lines for the Android Support Libraries:
dependencies { compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar']) compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:25.3.1' ... } What is the problem and why does this warning occur? (How do I resolve it?)
