sdwebimage_build_issue

Setup:

TestApp1 set up to use pod 'SDWebImage/GIF' directly or through other pods.

Initially the issue was that main target used pod 'Appboy-iOS-SDK' which pulled in SDWebImage with GIF support, but issue can be reproduced just using SDWebImage directly.

Issue description:

Project will build fine, but will to archive.

Debug/Release:

Xcode builds SDWebImage and SDWebImage/GIF into separate folders which results normal dependency and framework search path resolution.

Folder with SDWebImage:

Folder with SDWebImage/GIF:

Archive:

Xcode builds all dependencies into UninstalledProducts folder and makes a symlinks to built frameworks while building all targets. That SDWebImage.framework is being overwritten and symlink points to same framework for SDWebImage and SDWebImage-GIF which results build failure.

Temporarily fix:

use pod 'SDWebImage/GIF' everywhere.

pod install then will add all required folders into framework search paths and will have dependency frameworks linked.
