Objective C build of 3.4.0 failing when using carthage

[Graham H.2]

I am having problems getting the SDK building using carthage. A fresh build using the Cartfile ...

# ObjectiveDropboxOfficial

github "https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-obj-c" == 3.4.0

fails with the error ...

Grahams-iMac:tmp ghaley$ carthage update --platform iOS

** BUILD SUCCEEDED **

I have tried this inside my project, and also separately into a empty directory. Could you please give me any pointers?

Thanks!

I can't seem to reproduce that error. Can you let me know what versions of Carthage and Xcode you're using? (`carthage version` and `xcodebuild -version`) Thanks!

[Graham H.2]

Thanks Greg. If you need the log file, let me know.

$ carthage version

0.28.0

$ xcodebuild -version

Xcode 9.2

Build version 9C40b

Thanks! I was on an older version of carthage, but it looks like this issue is related to more recent versions. It's open as an issue on GitHub here:

https://github.com/Carthage/Carthage/issues/2277

I just upgraded, but I still can't seem to reproduce this though. In any case, can you try downgrading to 0.24 to see if that helps?

Thanks Greg, downgrading Carthage to version 0.24 seems to have fixed it.
