Describe the bug

StackTrace :

After adding the koin-startup on my application, I face some crashs on startup after releasing the application on the play store

Fatal Exception: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to create application com.pairip.application.Application: java.lang.IllegalStateException: KoinApplication has not been started

com.pairip.application.Application is not my package name, I suppose it's created by Playstore integrity if someone can confirm

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Bump koin to 4.0.0
2. Install the module koin-startup
3. add the method onKoinStartup on the init {
4. Deploy the application on the playstore (it happens only after google adds the app-integrity mechanism
5. Users launch the app, then it crashes on some devices

Koin module and version: koin:4.0.0 koin-startup:4.0.0

Snippet or Sample project to help reproduce

class MyApplication : Application() {

    init {
        onKoinStartup {
            initializeMyDependencies(
                application = this@MyApplication,
            )
        }
    }

    override fun onCreate() {
        super.onCreate()

        get<AnyUseCase>().invoke()
    }
}

Investigating the error, it sounds to me like it is something that introduces play integrity in the artifact that ends up being distributed in the app. I did not find much information about it. But I leave some points for you to validate in your project:

• Check the merge manifest, since according to the error, an override of your application class is being done, which means that the init method cannot be executed
• Try forcing your app to use the Application class of your project with (https://developer.android.com/build/manage-manifests#merge-manifests)
• You can also analyze your apk/bundle that the store generated.

I leave this link with interesting information about the packageName that appears in your stack traces https://github.com/Solaree/pairipcore
