[Question] Pod File Problems

[TannerJuby1]

• Your Rocket.Chat app version: Latest
• Your Rocket.Chat server version: Latest
• Device (or Simulator) you're running with: 11

I have built an app that embeds Rocket.Chat into my own app. In order to make this work I've had to base my Podfile off of your Podfile. I recently went to update our app and ran into a bunch of build errors in regards to these pods. When I pulled down this repo, the app built fine, but the pod resources were different from mine even though my Podfile is set up exactly the same in terms of the pods you use. Here is my Podfile:

workspace 'YTP'
platform :ios, '11.0'

    end

    project 'YTP/YTP.xcodeproj'
end

post_install do |installer|
    swift42Targets = ['RCMarkdownParser', 'MobilePlayer']

    installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
        target.build_configurations.each do |config|
            config.build_settings['SWIFT_VERSION'] = '4.1'
            config.build_settings['ENABLE_BITCODE'] = 'NO'
            
            if config.name == 'Debug'
                config.build_settings['SWIFT_OPTIMIZATION_LEVEL'] = '-Onone'
            else
                config.build_settings['SWIFT_OPTIMIZATION_LEVEL'] = '-Owholemodule'
            end
        end
        
        if swift42Targets.include? target.name
            target.build_configurations.each do |config|
                config.build_settings['SWIFT_VERSION'] = '4.2'
            end
        end
    end
end

When I run pod install for my project, it downloads a different set of pods than when I run it for the Rocket.Chat project. For example, the version I get for SwipeCellKit is 2.7.1 whereas the version in Rocket.Chat's pods is 2.6.0 even though both of our Podfiles just have pod 'SwipeCellKit'

Now if I run pod update for both of our projects, then Rocket.Chat's project gets the same pod files I get and the app doesn't build...

How do I go about getting the same Podfile resources that is in this repo when the Podfile doesn't explicitly state versions for pods such as SwipeCellKit? Moreover, how do you manage your Pods to where they don't update? Do you just never update your pods?

I have also discovered that this repo uses the RocketChatViewController pod, but it's version is 1.0.0 whereas the version that gets downloaded from the RocketChatViewController repo is 1.0.1 and doesn't compile with swift 4.2
