Likely related to 01a7b20655 but I am not completely sure.
I tested the app and it works well, so I think that org.mozilla.javascript.JavaToJSONConverters is not used really.
This is the full list of errors:
Missing class java.beans.BeanDescriptor (referenced from: java.lang.Object org.mozilla.javascript.JavaToJSONConverters.lambda$static$4(java.lang.Object))
