There is no library apk. It's not meant to be in the apk of the main application. it's meant to be merged into the apk of the main application as if the source code and resources came from the main application source folders. Android Library Project are purely handled at compile time.
This also means that there's no apk installed on the device, which means your manifest should not contain a uses-library node for this library (it may contain them for other libraries just as google maps). That's the reason the doc is completely silent about it: you don't need it. In fact, this is why your install fails. The system will look for a *system* library named after your compile-time library. Of course it will fail finding it and will refuse to install your application.
