- Use the `$(inherited)` flag, or - Remove the build settings from the target. CocoaPod Swift3 pod update error

Question

I've been running into a couple of strange errors in terminal when updating cocoapods after updating a Switf2 project to Swift3. Here are the errors:

[!] The `MyShowGuide [Debug]` target overrides the `FRAMEWORK_SEARCH_PATHS` build setting defined in `Pods/Target Support Files/Pods-MyShowGuide/Pods-MyShowGuide.debug.xcconfig'. This can lead to problems with the CocoaPods installation     - Use the `$(inherited)` flag, or     - Remove the build settings from the target.  [!] The `MyShowGuide [Release]` target overrides the `FRAMEWORK_SEARCH_PATHS` build setting defined in `Pods/Target Support Files/Pods-MyShowGuide/Pods-MyShowGuide.release.xcconfig'. This can lead to problems with the CocoaPods installation     - Use the `$(inherited)` flag, or     - Remove the build settings from the target. 

So far I've tried numerous ways to try and remedy the issue including deleting derived data and running pod deintegrate/ pod install. I also added $(inherited) to the Other Linker Flags and Header Search Paths but still get the error.

Answer 1

1. Target - > building settings- >ALWAYS_EMBED_SWIFT_STANDARD_LIBRARIES, Value type is Boolean, click on the other, change the value to $(inherited)
2. perform - pod update
3. Done

Answer 2

This worked for me:

https://github.com/CocoaPods/CocoaPods/issues/5981#issuecomment-363591574

1. Go to Build Settings
2. Search for "Runpath Search Paths".
3. Double click the value field and add $(inherited)
4. Product -> Clean Build Folder

Run the cocoapods command in the terminal and things should go fine this time.
