I also have this issue when trying to run pod install in the ObjectALDemo directory.

I'm actually getting the same issue when I create a fresh podspec file using pod spec create. I've created a ticket here: https://github.com/CocoaPods/CocoaPods/issues/2759

Same, but my error message is slightly different:

https://github.com/cocos2d/cocos2d-iphone.git now redirects to https://github.com/cocos2d/cocos2d-swift. It looks like the original cocos2d-iphone repo has moved to cocos2d-iphone-classic.

You have to update the repo link in the cocos2d.podspec file accordingly. Then pod setup; pod install.

Now I'm getting ARC errors when I try to build but that's a separate issue...

Hi Alex,

Thanks for pointing out the new location for cocos2d. In xcode, go to the "Pods" project, and under Build Settings, simply set 'Objective-C Automatic Reference Counting' to No and the demo project should build fine (although there are a ton of warnings related to cocos2d library deprecations).

Awesome, thanks.
