Expo EAS Build Fails with Firebase SDK Error on iOS

Please provide the following:

  1. SDK Version:48
  2. Platforms(Android/iOS/web/all): iOS
  3. Add the appropriate “Tag” based on what Expo library you have a question on.

Hello,

I’m trying to build my React Native Expo app for iOS using EAS Build, but I’m encountering an error related to the Firebase SDK. The error message I’m seeing is:

[!] The following Swift pods cannot yet be integrated as static libraries:
The Swift pod `FirebaseCoreInternal` depends upon `GoogleUtilities`, which does not define modules. To opt into those targets generating module maps (which is necessary to import them from Swift when building as static libraries), you may set `use_modular_headers!` globally in your Podfile, or specify `:modular_headers => true` for particular dependencies.
Error: Unknown error. See logs for more information.

I understand that this error is related to the integration of Swift pods as static libraries. However, since I’m using Expo, I don’t directly manage a Podfile or any native code.

Here are the relevant parts of my package.json:

"dependencies": {
  "@expo/vector-icons": "^13.0.0",
  "@react-native-async-storage/async-storage": "^1.18.1",
  "@react-navigation/native": "^6.1.6",

  "eslint": "^8.17.0",
  "eslint-plugin-react": "^7.30.0",
  "eslint-plugin-react-native": "^4.0.0"
}

I’ve tried updating my packages, clearing my npm cache, and reinstalling my node_modules, but none of these steps have resolved the issue.

Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
