Java Installation error: INSTALL_FAILED_MISSING_SHARED_LIBRARY maps

I downloaded an android map app and am trying to successfully run the app. When I build and run, I however run into an error here. 

--my manifest file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.shawnbe.mallfinder"
    android:versionCode="1"
    android:versionName="1.0" >
    <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="7" />
    <application
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name" 
        android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar">
        <activity
            android:label="@string/app_name"
            android:name=".MallFinderActivity" >
            <intent-filter >
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
        <uses-library android:required="true" android:name="com.google.android.maps" />
    </application>
    <uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.location.gps"/>
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/>
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
</manifest>

Your emulator AVD does not have Google Maps. Create an emulator AVD with a "Target" that has "Google APIs (Google Inc.)" in the name.
