I found a few problems with this issue:

  • I couldn't figure out how to label this issue, so I've labeled it for a human to triage. Hang tight.
  • This issue does not seem to follow the issue template. Make sure you provide all the required information.

Thanks for reporting, @khoogheem. Can you share the detailed steps reproducing the issue? Also, a pod update may be required to ensure all recent dependencies are being pulled in. Thanks.

this is what we add in:

Can you share the full build log output? It's likely this is occurring in a submodule of your app (i.e. one of your dependencies) and not the app itself.

if you want the lock file send me an email that I can sent it too.. vs posting here

@khoogheem

Ok.. if I use:

   pod 'Firebase'
  pod 'Firebase/Crashlytics'
  # add the Firebase pod for Google Analytics
  pod 'Firebase/Analytics'
  # Firebase Performance
  pod 'Firebase/Performance'

Then it works... which is odd as the only thing I see different between the two locks is core and analytics are swapped
and after I remove it it works as well.. so I am not sure what is going on...

You should be able to fix this temporarily by going to your Pods.xcodeproj project and adding the GoogleUtilities framework to the FirebaseCrashlytics target's Link Binary with Libraries build phase.

A more permanent fix may need to come from CocoaPods or Firebase; some further investigation is required.

Marking as needs-info for a repro case from a clean build environment

@billdevoe

For a more permanent workaround, you can add the dependency with the missing symbols directly to your target in your Podfile.

pod 'GoogleUtilities'

I added this but still have the crashlytics error (even after a clean and fresh build). If I remove Crashlytics, things compile properly. I did try the temporary fix you mentioned earlier about adding GoogleUtilities to the Link Binary with Libraries, but still saw the same error.

Overall, at this point I'm just excluding it.

The FirebaseUI issue turns out to be a test infrastructure issue specific to FirebaseUI. See the firebase/FirebaseUI-iOS#969 for details.

So we're still looking for a reproducible example.

mentalGrowthNick commented Jun 24, 2021

Was able to remove the issue by updating my pod file from this:

pod 'Firebase/Core'
pod 'Firebase/Crashlytics'
pod 'Firebase/Analytics'

To this:

pod 'Firebase'
pod 'Firebase/Crashlytics'
pod 'Firebase/Analytics'
pod 'Firebase/Performance'

Firebase/Performance installed GoogleUtilities, which might be the key.

After running pod install, I cleaned my build folder, then deleted derived data for the app.
After waiting for index to finish & then building the project, the issue went away for me.

@billdevoe
Copy link

Thanks for the note @mentalGrowthNick.

I do have Performance in my Podfile but I still get this issue even after doing all of the steps you mentioned. When I did the pod update I noticed that many of the pods I have updated to 8.2.0, but even with the new changes and everything, this problem persists.

As of today, I'm just not including Crashlytics at all and it's building. I would like to get it added but can't seem to get it working at the moment.

@billdevoe can you share your project?

Hi @morganchen12 - I don't have anything simple that I could share at this point (this is a workspace/project for a published game). I will try to see if I can replicate the issue with a project that I could share.

billdevoe commented Jun 25, 2021

So I just created a new project, added the Pods (shown below) and then tried to build the workspace - same error.

This is about as basic as it gets.

Podfile (removed the commented lines as they hork the formatting):

platform :ios, '12.1'

pod 'Firebase'
pod 'Firebase/Crashlytics'
pod 'Firebase/Analytics'
pod 'Firebase/Performance'

pod 'Google-Mobile-Ads-SDK'

target 'Firebase Test App' do
use_frameworks!

I'm wondering at this point if it's something about Objective-C or the target (iOS 12.1) or something else. I did have to do a LOT of updates to get gems working properly, but if I put the Crashlytics pod into the Podfile, I get the error.

@billdevoe I tried reproducing this build failure with a very similar Podfile but was unable to do so (see the attached sample project). I'm using Xcode 12.3, though that shouldn't be a factor in this issue.

Hi @morganchen12 - I built the example project you posted and it works (when I correctly remember to change the build target to the iOS version). So it's not completely FUBAR on my machine, just with most of the basic things I'm doing. I'll keep poking around to see what differences exist between the two things.

This is the project I made that doesn't build properly for me.

Thanks for providing the example. The issue is clear now and fixed in #8308. The Crashlytics podspec was not defining one of its dependencies.

We do not typically see this issue because it is only exposed by an unusual Podfile. Putting use_frameworks! inside a target causes CocoaPods to generate both frameworks and library build targets and that exposes the build issue. There generally is not a reason to want to build all dependencies twice, so typically use_frameworks! is placed at the top of the Podfile.

@paulb777 paulb777 added this to the 8.3.0 - M99 milestone Jun 26, 2021
@billdevoe
Copy link

Thanks @paulb777 - I used someone's example of a Podfile to create mine. I guess I didn't realize it was in the target. BUT - moving it out of the target section of the Podfile DOES fix the issue.

Happy I was able to help you identify a bug and fix it. :D

Thanks for all the help, everyone. Very happy that things are working now. Much appreciated.

GoogleUtilities/Environment dependency doesn't exist in podspec of cocoapods repo.

https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs/blob/master/Specs/e/7/d/FirebaseCrashlytics/8.3.0/FirebaseCrashlytics.podspec.json#L42

Is this as intended?
I think build errors still occurs.

Hmm, it looks like the fix missed 8.3.0. Sorry about that.
