Hi,

About this issue

• When trying to use Iconics in my project, everything compiles but got the following exception at runtime:\

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class "com.mikepenz.iconics.typeface.IconicsInitializer" on path: DexPathList[[zip file "/data/app/~~Y9mUoGVvvs8b8dXhJS8d-g==/org.maupu.android.tmh-JGOuacTk2XqRdLx2AQKJCQ==/base.apk"],nativeLibraryDirectories=[/data/app/~~Y9mUoGVvvs8b8dXhJS8d-g==/org.maupu.android.tmh-JGOuacTk2XqRdLx2AQKJCQ==/lib/x86_64, /system/lib64, /system_ext/lib64]]

Related to #582 but the workaround doesn't fix the issue ( I got a class conflict in that case)

Anyone knows how to fix that ?

[mikepenz]

This class is within the: iconics-typeface-api module.

Does this issue occur for debug or release mode builds?

[arash-ahmadi]

Hi, were you able to fix this issue?

[mikepenz]

@arash-ahmadi there was never an answer from the original author of this ticket, as such I lack information.

This crash does not occur in the sample app, which means I rely on the support of the reportee

Hi, sorry for the delay, my schedule were tight and I forgot to follow up... I finally did differently...
It was debug / dev build btw.
