Fixing Classes/Launcher.swift:22:1: type 'UIApplication' does not conform to protocol 'Launcher'
Today I upgraded flutter flutter upgrade, then compiled my Flutter app to iOS. It failed with this error:
Classes/Launcher.swift:22:1: type 'UIApplication' does not conform to protocol 'Launcher'
After searching for the error, I found https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/151467 as the first result. It turns out it is a known issue that has been fixed. The latest comment suggests upgrading dependencies by running flutter pub upgrade.
After which it told me I now was using url_launcher 6.3.1, which is the latest version according to pub.dev.
Yet when I tried to compile again, it told me this
You have either:
* out-of-date source repos which you can update with `pod repo update` or with `pod install --repo-update`.
* changed the constraints of dependency `GoogleSignIn` inside your development pod `google_sign_in_ios`.
You should run `pod update GoogleSignIn` to apply changes you've made.
and then that:
❌ /Users/anhtuan/.pub-cache/hosted/pub.dev/url_launcher_ios-6.2.5/ios/Classes/Launcher.swift:22:1: type 'UIApplication' does not conform to protocol 'Launcher'
So I tried running those commands:
% cd ios

My Podfile.lock states that I am on this version:
BoringSSL-GRPC (0.0.24):
The solutions posted in the thread do not really apply to me. They suggest patching out the -G parameter in the Podfile. This is ugly and I am certainly not copy/pasting this in each and every one of my projects.
A further search brought me to this: they give the versions of firebase that worked for them:
firebase_core: 3.6.0
