others-how to solve android manifest merge error `Missing 'package' key attribute on element package at` when building android app?
1. Purpose
In this post, I will demonstrate how to solve the Missing 'package' key attribute on element package at
error when building android app, just as follows:

Our app’s target api level is 30.
The androidManifest.xml that cause the problem:
<queries>
<intent ...>
<package android:name="com.eg.android.AlipayGphone" />
<package android:name="com.eg.android.AlipayGphoneRC" />
<package android:name="hk.alipay.wallet" />
</queries>
And we are using android build gradle version 3.x, the project’s build.gradle:
buildscript {
repositories {
google()
jcenter()
maven { url 'http://maven.aliyun.com/nexus/content/repositories/releases/'}
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.5.3'
2. Reason
The
<queries>
<package android:name="string" />
<intent>
...
</intent>
<provider android:authorities="list" />
...
</queries>
The <queries>
element specifies the set of other apps that an app intends to interact with. These other apps can be specified by package name, by intent signature, or by provider authority, as described in later sections on this page.
This element is introduced since API Level 30
.
According to this,
The best solution to deal with these errors is to upgrade to Android Gradle plugin 4.1 Beta.
We know that not everyone is ready to upgrade to the latest version, though, and you may be relying on old versions of Gradle or libraries that aren’t compatible with 4.1.
So, today we issued a set of dot releases for the Android Gradle plugin that are compatible with
3. Solution
According to the above document, we should upgrade your android gradle plugin version to 4.2.0
buildscript {
repositories {
google()
jcenter()
maven { url 'http://maven.aliyun.com/nexus/content/repositories/releases/'}
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.2.0'
...
and change the gradle version to 6.7.1 in project’s gradle-wrapper.properties:
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.7.1-all.zip
Now build again, it works!
4. Summary
In this post, I demonstrated how to solve the Missing 'package' key attribute on element package at
error when building android app, the key point is to choose the right android gradle version to match the android target version. That’s it, thanks for your reading.
