The 'Pods-Runner' target has transitive dependencies that include statically linked binaries

[dwhiteddsoft]

I am not sure this is on the 2nd library I am using or yours. If this is on the other library simply let me know and we can close this. I have tried to skinny the problem down as much as possible. If you go here and run the example app it should work fine. If you then go into the pubspec.yaml of the same example project and add a line to your library: appcenter: 0.2.1

the pod install fails with: The 'Pods-Runner' target has transitive dependencies that include statically linked binaries

Any help would be appreciated.

A little more on this. Some people have argued the way to solve this in other places is to put this in the podsfile: pre_install do |installer|

workaround for https://github.com/CocoaPods/CocoaPods/issues/3289

Pod::Installer::Xcode::TargetValidator.send(:define_method, :verify_no_static_framework_transitive_dependencies) {} end

When I do that, I does get past the pod install but then fails on compile: Xcode build done. 10.7s Failed to build iOS app Error output from Xcode build: ↳ BUILD FAILED

I encountered the same problem. After researching for several days, I finally found the solution. The point is to make sure that the pods for appcenter, appcenter_analytics or appcenter_crashes are all built as static library.

@willyliu do you have info on how to do this when you are not familiair with iOS dev?

@dwhiteddsoft Did you find a solution for that issue?

Removing the ios/Podfile.lock folder, flutter clean, then flutter run again did the trick.
