EAS ios build fails with "library not found for -lDoubleConversion"

[tniezurawski]

My configuration:

• Bare workflow
• eas: >= 0.43.0
• SDK 43

I am able to build the project in a classic way (expo build:ios) as well when developing locally using Xcode. I did eject before to support InAppPurchases. It works properly on my phone when it’s a target for Xcode.

This is my first build with EAS and I wanted to try the simulator first:
eas build -p ios --profile preview

Here’s the error output:

› Linking   getbarfplan

It seems the issue was connected to Build System. In Xcode I used “Legacy Build System” because of some issue with circular dependencies and only this way I was able to run it.

Changing this setting changed project-dir/ios/PROJECT_NAME.xcworkspace/xcshareddata/WorkspaceSettings.xcsettings as well.

I changed the setting back to “New Build System”:

and that removed:

<dict>
-  <key>BuildSystemType</key>
-  <string>Original</string>

from the aforementioned file.

I tried building with EAS again and it works Both for simulator and production build.
