Manifest [FILE_PROVIDER] merger failed

[lotaviods]

In my manifest i have on FILE_PROVIDER that i use to share some images..
So when i build my project i'm getting some error message:

Manifest merger failed Attribute meta-data#android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS@resource value=(@xml/provider_path) is also present at [com.github.AppDevNext.Logcat:LogcatCoreLib:2.9.4]

I'm current using the version: 3.4.0-beta5

Some work around to this is just add tools:replace="android:resource in meta data of FILE_PROVIDER
but is there any problem to that?

Thanks!

It's the same like owncloud/android-library#379 (comment)
(I guess) There are several ways to fix it, like described.

If you don't use share logcat file, you can simply overwrite the value.
More interesting is it, when you use share logcat file (from this lib) and your share file function in one app

Please keep me up to date with your working solution

Thank's for the reply, my solution is override for now, not sure if i'm using the shared function from that lib, but the comment that you replied it's what i needed
