I just reset my MacBook Pro M1 Pro and updated it to MacOS Tahoe 26.2. I cloned my Expo (bare workflow) app, installed XCode and CocoaPods using brew, updated ruby to v3.1.4 and ran "pod install". The problem is when I try to run the project on emulator I got the following error:

❌ ld: framework 'Pods_MyProjectName' not found 
❌ clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

I read that if I try to remove the Pods_MyProjectName.framework from "Frameworks, Libraries, and Embedded Content" section in XCode it should work. Also I have to remove the Pods -> Frameworks -> iOS -> "Frameworks colored in red. Unfortunately none of these steps helped me because every time when I run pod install, they regenerate again.

What have I already tried:

  • Clean Build Folder
  • Clean CocoaPods cache
  • Delete -> Pods folder, Podfile.lock, node_modules
  • pod deintegrate
  • pod install
  • pod install --repo-update
  • working on .xcworkspace not .xcodeproj

I'm sharing my Podfile if this can help addressing the problem:

require File.join(File.dirname(`node --print "require.resolve('expo/package.json')"`), "scripts/autolinking")
require File.join(File.dirname(`node --print "require.resolve('react-native/package.json')"`), "scripts/react_native_pods")
require 'json'
podfile_properties = JSON.parse(File.read(File.join(__dir__, 'Podfile.properties.json'))) rescue {}
ENV['RCT_NEW_ARCH_ENABLED'] = '0' if podfile_properties['newArchEnabled'] == 'false'
ENV['EX_DEV_CLIENT_NETWORK_INSPECTOR'] = podfile_properties['EX_DEV_CLIENT_NETWORK_INSPECTOR']
platform :ios, podfile_properties['ios.deploymentTarget'] || '17.0'
install! 'cocoapods',
 :deterministic_uuids => false
prepare_react_native_project!
target 'MyProjectName' do
 use_expo_modules!
 if ENV['EXPO_USE_COMMUNITY_AUTOLINKING'] == '1'
 config_command = ['node', '-e', "process.argv=['', '', 'config'];require('@react-native-community/cli').run()"];
 else
 config_command = [
 'npx',
 'expo-modules-autolinking',
 'react-native-config',
 '--json',
 '--platform',
 'ios'
 ]
 end
 config = use_native_modules!(config_command)
 use_frameworks! :linkage => podfile_properties['ios.useFrameworks'].to_sym if podfile_properties['ios.useFrameworks']
 use_frameworks! :linkage => ENV['USE_FRAMEWORKS'].to_sym if ENV['USE_FRAMEWORKS']
 use_react_native!(
 :path => config[:reactNativePath],
 :hermes_enabled => podfile_properties['expo.jsEngine'] == nil || podfile_properties['expo.jsEngine'] == 'hermes',
 # An absolute path to your application root.
 :app_path => "#{Pod::Config.instance.installation_root}/..",
 :privacy_file_aggregation_enabled => podfile_properties['apple.privacyManifestAggregationEnabled'] != 'false',
 )
 post_install do |installer|
 react_native_post_install(
 installer,
 config[:reactNativePath],
 :mac_catalyst_enabled => false,
 :ccache_enabled => podfile_properties['apple.ccacheEnabled'] == 'true',
 )
 # This is necessary for Xcode 14, because it signs resource bundles by default
 # when building for devices.
 installer.target_installation_results.pod_target_installation_results
 .each do |pod_name, target_installation_result|
 target_installation_result.resource_bundle_targets.each do |resource_bundle_target|
 resource_bundle_target.build_configurations.each do |config|
 config.build_settings['CODE_SIGNING_ALLOWED'] = 'NO'
 end
 end
 end
 end
end

If you need more information just ask. Thanks!
