The file “Pods-xxx.xcconfig” couldn’t be opened because there is no such file: /Pods appears twice in my configuration paths

Question

I have different targets, hence different configurations in my app.

Every time I run pod install, I end up having a debug and a release warning for each configuration, telling me that :

The file “Pods-{MyTarget}.debug.xcconfig” couldn’t be opened because there is no such file.

/{MyAppPath}/Pods/Pods/Target Support Files/Pods-{MyTarget}/Pods-{MyTarget}.debug.xcconfig

It appears that /Pods is being added twice in the configuration paths (from Info section at project level), and I have no idea why:

But to solve this issue, I simply have to manually select the option that's below, and it's OK:

Then the warning disappears and I am able to build the project again.

What's causing this issue?

Thanks for your help!

Listing the answer we worked out in the comments:

• Run pod deintegrate
• Back up the {project}.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj file
• Search for Pods in the file
• Delete any blocks that include Pods
• Rerun pod install
