EDIT : MY PROGUARD VERSION IS 4.7

Today I tried include jsoup (version 1.7.1) in my android application, but it is causing me a lot of troubles. When I exported the signed apk with proguard turned on everytime my application was facing force close issues, then i disabled proguard and exported the apk and it ran perfectly. Please help me. How can I solve the error? The stacktrace is as below:

The solution posted by @Erdem in a comment above seems to be the best one. I'm reposting it as an answer for visibility.

Add the line below to your proguard file

-keeppackagenames org.jsoup.nodes

This seems to be enough
