ld: file not found: /Pods/GoogleUtilities/Libraries/libGTM_NSData+zlib.a fix issue

Question

In Pod it is showing like this.

libGTM_NSData+zlib_external.a

While in Build settings, it looks as below

$(PODS_ROOT)/GoogleUtilities/Libraries/libGTM_NSData+zlib.a

In config, it shows as this.

-force_load $(PODS_ROOT)/GoogleUtilities/Libraries/libGTM_NSData+zlib_external.a

How can I remove error of not finding libGTM_NSData+zlib.a as I know new google library has libGTM_NSData+zlib_external.a only.

I am using

pod 'Google/Analytics'
pod 'Google/SignIn'

in my Pod file.

Kindly give proper structure of removing such issue. I tried to rename and keeping all of same name as _external, it didn't solve the problem.

Final installation of Pods via Terminal shows Log as below

I had the same issue today, removing the pod cache and reinstalling from scratch did the trick for me. close Xcode, delete pod files, then

rm -rf "${HOME}/Library/Caches/CocoaPods"
rm -rf "`pwd`/Pods/"
pod install
