My podfile:

target 'Test' do
  use_frameworks!
pod 'KSCrash', '~> 2.0.0-alpha.5'
end

The app runs on an iPhone 6 with iOS12.3.1，Xcode version is 15.4

Hi! KSCrash isn't typically used as a dynamic library. Could you try modifying your Podfile to use static linking?

target 'Test' do
  use_frameworks! :linkage => :static
  pod 'KSCrash', '~> 2.0.0-alpha.5'
end

Run pod install and rebuild. Does the error persist? Can you share the code you're using to initialize and run KSCrash? ?

it cant be reproduce on iOS simulators, because i cant install a simulators with iOS 12.

by the way. it can be run well on iPhone 15 Pro with iOS 17.5 my xcode is 15.4 (15F31d)

according to the xcode console log, the library libobjc.A.dylib doesnt contains the symbol ‘_objc_debug_tag60_permutations’；may be the shared dynamic library(libobjc.A.dylib) on my iPhone 6(12.3.1) doesnt contains that symbol, could you consider to remove that symbol？

Could you let me know which version of Xcode you used to build the binaries? Does this issue reproduce on iOS simulators or only on physical devices? We're currently trying to reproduce it, but we're having trouble getting Xcode to work with iOS 12 and 13. Our checks with Xcode 11 and iOS 12 and iOS 13 simulators don't show any problems. Unfortunately, Xcode 14 and 15 don't support these iOS versions for debugging.

We installed the iOS 12 simulator on Xcode 11 on VM, so it doesn't reproduce on the iOS 12 simulator.

according to the xcode console log, the library libobjc.A.dylib doesnt contains the symbol ‘_objc_debug_tag60_permutations’；may be the shared dynamic library(libobjc.A.dylib) on my iPhone 6(12.3.1) doesnt contains that symbol, could you consider to remove that symbol？

Yes, that is exactly what is happening. I did find my iPhone 6 with iOS 12 and successfully reproduced the problem. I'm already working on a solution in the linked branch.
