Have set zxing as a library and then added to my main project/app.

The log gives the error

11-01 15:11:20.920: E/AndroidRuntime(12660): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.wrcs/com.google.zxing.client.android.CaptureActivity}: android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: Unable to find explicit activity class {com.wrcs/com.google.zxing.client.android.HelpActivity}; have you declared this activity in your AndroidManifest.xml?

I checked issue #198 and followed the steps for the updated ADT 14.0. What has confused me if that if you 'force close' and then reopen the app the scanning works just fine from then on. I only get this error the first time the app is run after a new install. I have absolutely no clue as to why this would occur and why it only occurs once and on initial use.
