iOS Bitcode

[hey-nicolasklein]

Describe the bug Building on Flutter 2.10 and Flutter 3.0 for iOS produces the Error Error (Xcode): '/Users/nicolas.klein/development/xcollect/build/ios/Debug-iphoneos/XCFrameworkIntermediates/MobileVLCKit/MobileVLCKit.framework/MobileVLCKit' does not contain bitcode. You must rebuild it with bitcode enabled (Xcode setting ENABLE_BITCODE), obtain an updated library from the vendor, or disable bitcode for this target. file '/Users/nicolas.klein/development/xcollect/build/ios/Debug-iphoneos/XCFrameworkIntermediates/MobileVLCKit/MobileVLCKit.framework/MobileVLCKit' for architecture arm64

I know you don't plan to support the package for iOS / MacOS any further, but maybe you have any advice. I already have disabled Bitcode in my Runner-Settings in xCode.

Minimal reproducible code Bug at compile time.

@hey-nicolasklein Did you try do disable BITCODE with your Podfile?

Something like the following snippet:

post_install do |installer|
  installer.pods_project.build_configurations.each do |config|
    config.build_settings['ENABLE_BITCODE'] = 'NO'
  end
  installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
    target.build_configurations.each do |config|
      config.build_settings['ENABLE_BITCODE'] = 'NO'
    end
  end
end

@hey-nicolasklein Just a hint: with Xcode 14 building with BITCODE will be disabled by default. Source: Apple Xcode 14 Release-Notes

Hey I did not go More in depth in using the package. Thank you for your help though. The project Im working on needs a player with further macOS support. And the dev of this project clearly is not interested at this moment in developing the macOS version any further.
