None of your spec sources contain a spec satisfying the dependency - swift

Question

I am referencing the pod 'MatomoTracker' in my own pod
I get this error while linting : with pod lint spec
-> TrackerPod.v3 (0.0.1)
- ERROR | [iOS] unknown: Encountered an unknown error (CocoaPods could not find compatible versions for pod "Pods/MatomoTracker/MatomoTracker":
In Podfile:
TrackerPod.v3 (from `/Users/****/Documents/projects/ios/libs/TrackerPod.v3/TrackerPod.v3.podspec`) was resolved to 0.0.1, which depends on
TrackerPod.v3/Matomo (= 0.0.1) was resolved to 0.0.1, which depends on
Pods/MatomoTracker/MatomoTracker (= 5.2.0)
None of your spec sources contain a spec satisfying the dependency: `Pods/MatomoTracker/MatomoTracker (= 5.2.0)`.
You have either:
* out-of-date source repos which you can update with `pod repo update` or with `pod install --repo-update`.
* mistyped the name or version.
* not added the source repo that hosts the Podspec to your Podfile.
Note: as of CocoaPods 1.0, `pod repo update` does not happen on `pod install` by default.) during validation.
Analyzed 1 podspec.
[!] The spec did not pass validation, due to 1 error.
this is my podspec:
Pod::Spec.new do |spec|
spec.name = 'TrackerPod.v3'
spec.version = '0.0.1'
spec.license = 'Copyright ****'
spec.homepage = 'https://*******8/TrackerPod/blob/master/README.md'
spec.author = { '****' => '****#****.com' }
spec.summary = 'Some description'
spec.source = { :git => '****', :tag => spec.version.to_s }
spec.source_files = 'TrackerPod.v3/*.{h,m, swift}'
spec.ios.deployment_target = '8.0'
spec.osx.deployment_target = '10.10'
spec.requires_arc = true
spec.swift_version = '4.0'
spec.xcconfig = { 'SWIFT_VERSION' => '4.1' }
spec.dependency 'MatomoTracker', '5.2.0'
spec.subspec 'Matomo' do |lib|
lib.dependency 'Pods/MatomoTracker/MatomoTracker', '5.2.0'
lib.source_files = 'Pods/MatomoTracker/MatomoTracker/**/*.{h,m,swift}'
end
end
and, this is a screenshot to show my project navigator.
You can see that MatomoTracker is nested 2 levels downs inside 'Pods'
the project navigator
Am using the right path to reference MatomoTracker Pods/MatomoTracker/MatomoTracker, it does not seem to find the pod Matomoto ?
Am I correct ?

Answer 1

to answer the question. I kind of know where the error stands.
In my podspec, I am using spec.dependency 'MatomoTracker', '~> 5.2'
without the above the line, the validation passes
it seems that a higher minimum deployment target is required. I have update to deployment target as 11.0 everywhere.
- Podfile
- build settings (pod target) in Xcode
- spec ios target as well in the pod spec
and, this is the error I get
ERROR | [iOS] xcodebuild: Returned an unsuccessful exit code. You can use `--verbose` for more information.

Specs satisfying the `MatomoTracker (~> 5.2)` dependency were found, but they required a higher minimum deployment target.) during validation.
Although I feel like I did by the book and as per the cocoapods guide, I am still missing sthg.
The MatomoTracker does not pass the validation
