Manifest merger failed : Attribute application@label

[mosofsky]

When I run ./gradlew assembleRelease on my application which includes com.bignerdranch.android:simple-item-decoration:1.0.0, I get the following error:

AndroidManifest.xml:23:9-36 Error:
        Attribute application@label value=(AirportList) from AndroidManifest.xml:23:9-36
        is also present at [com.bignerdranch.android:simple-item-decoration:1.0.0] AndroidManifest.xml:13:9-41 value=(@string/app_name).
        Suggestion: add 'tools:replace="android:label"' to <application> element at AndroidManifest.xml:21:5-46:19 to override.

For now I didn't try the workaround because I decided to implement the feature in a way that doesn't depend on simple-item-decoration, but I thought I should report the problem here in case you want to fix it. I guess app_name just needs to be removed from the AndroidManifest.xml.
