jberkel/sms-backup-plus — Issue #187: Problem using ACRA - ReportsCrashes in App.java

In the App.java class, the following line has compile error:

@ReportsCrashes(formUri = "https://bugsense.appspot.co/api/acra?
api_key=abc123", formKey = "", checkReportSender = true)
public class App extends Application {

The attribute "checkReportSender" is invalid. This error happens with the latest ACRA library, v4.0.0, as well as the previous major version v3.1.2

This has been confirmed by the ACRA development team:
[snip]
I can't remember anything about such an attribute... and it is not in the 4.0.0b nor 4.0.1b source:
http://code.google.com/p/acra/source/browse/tags/acra-4.0.0b/src/main/java/org/acra/annotation/ReportsCrashes.java
[/snip]

1. Is checkReportSender a custom modification of the ACRA library, and what are its intentions?
2. Please can you include acra.jar into the list of referenced external libraries, so the project can be successfully built?
3. Removing "checkReportSender = true" resolves the compile time error. I will be happy to submit a patch if required.

Best regards,
