Just a heads-up; my team are unable to adopt Kotlin 1.8.20-RC because something has regressed in Cocoapods integration.
It's a struggle finding the time to isolate it in a minimal reproducer, but we have two Cocoapods; one is sourced online in the normal way, another is generated locally as part of the build so has a local file path.
The commonizer fails on this with:
Caused by: java.nio.file.NoSuchFileException: SQLCipher/I3TT7758Yx7u7tzr1SbmITaj_k4=/(ios_arm64, ios_simulator_arm64, ios_x64)/...
However SQLCipher itself is not the problem, if I remove the other local Cocoapod; SQLCipher is resolved fine.
Likewise if I remove SQLCipher the other Cocoapod syncs fine.
I suspect this has to do with the paths the commonizer generates when there's a mix of local/non-local Cococapods.
The critical part is the default component name in the path becomes __nonexistent_component_name__ .
Same config is fine in 1.8.0 and 1.8.10...

Can you share the the build.gradle.kts files? Or outline roughly how to reproduce this?

cc @Konstantin Tskhovrebov Can you help here?

Currently working on a reproducer, haven't cracked it yet, getting the project progressively closer.

[Sebastian Sellmair [JB]]

Thanks a lot! With a reproducer, things will get much easier :)

@darkmoon_uk Hi. Try to remove kotlin.mpp.enableCInteropCommonization=true from gradle.properties . I have same problem

[darkmoon_uk]

@caffeine This is going to sound bad but... I'm glad I've found someone else dealing with this issue; I thought it was only me!

Opting not to use C Interop Commonisation at all, like you've suggested, could be the basis for a workaround... but we actually do want to use commonisation: AFAIK commonisation is important for providing an iosMain interface when building for iOS Simulator and Device? So, this isn't really a long-term solution. Commonisation used to work before 1.8.20.

I'm trying to build a minimal reproducer project at the moment but so far I can't get it to 'error' in the same way as my main project.

Welcome any clues or suspicions you might have, as to what triggers this error in your project?

@darkmoon_uk Sorry. I have no ideas now. I'll try again later to figure out what's going on.
