Integrating pods with all targets

Question

I have been using CocoaPods for a few weeks now with my iOS app and it works perfectly with the one target I have been testing (let's call it "MainApp"). However, I now want to build a different target ("MyAppLite") and noticed that the build failed (file not found on one of the pods' header files).

The differences in the Build Settings I've noticed are as follows:

• Other Linker Flags does not contain the required frameworks in MyAppLite
• Framework/Header/Library Search Paths are all empty in MyAppLite
• None of the User-Defined Build Settings in MainApp are present in MyAppLite

How can I ensure that when I run pod install, all targets have the libraries linked?

For reference, here is my Podfile:

platform :ios, '5.0'

pod 'TTTAttributedLabel', '~> 1.7.0'
pod 'iRate', '~> 1.7.5'
pod 'MBProgressHUD', '~> 0.6'
pod 'FlurrySDK', '~> 4.2.3'
pod 'ACSimpleKeychain', '~> 0.0.1'
pod 'WEPopover', '~> 0.0.1'
pod 'AFNetworking', '~> 1.3.1'
pod 'Nimbus', '~> 1.0.0'
pod 'QuincyKit', '~> 2.1.9'

For CocoaPods 1.0.0, recommendation from devs is using abstract_target (but not compatible with 0.39.0):

platform :ios, '5.0'

abstract_target 'defaults' do
    pod 'TTTAttributedLabel', '~> 1.7.0'
    pod 'iRate', '~> 1.7.5'
    pod 'MBProgressHUD', '~> 0.6'
    pod 'FlurrySDK', '~> 4.2.3'
    pod 'ACSimpleKeychain', '~> 0.0.1'
    pod 'WEPopover', '~> 0.0.1'
    pod 'AFNetworking', '~> 1.3.1'
    pod 'Nimbus', '~> 1.0.0'
    pod 'QuincyKit', '~> 2.1.9'

    target 'MyApp'
    target 'MyAppLite'
end

For CocoaPods 0.39.0 + 1.0.0 compatibility, using def works fine (but isn't recommended by devs):

platform :ios, '5.0'

def default_pods
    pod 'TTTAttributedLabel', '~> 1.7.0'
    pod 'iRate', '~> 1.7.5'
    pod 'MBProgressHUD', '~> 0.6'
    pod 'FlurrySDK', '~> 4.2.3'
    pod 'ACSimpleKeychain', '~> 0.0.1'
    pod 'WEPopover', '~> 0.0.1'
    pod 'AFNetworking', '~> 1.3.1'
    pod 'Nimbus', '~> 1.0.0'
    pod 'QuincyKit', '~> 2.1.9'
end

target 'MyApp' do
    default_pods
end

target 'MyAppLite' do
    default_pods
end
