Protobuf library missing. App Crashing on start up

[FIELDPOINT]

I am using

<PackageReference Include="Xamarin.Firebase.iOS.Analytics">
<Version>8.10.0</Version>
</PackageReference>
    <PackageReference Include="Xamarin.Firebase.iOS.Core">
      <Version>8.10.0</Version>
    </PackageReference>
    <PackageReference Include="Xamarin.Firebase.iOS.Crashlytics">
      <Version>8.10.0</Version>
    </PackageReference>
    <PackageReference Include="Xamarin.Forms" Version="5.0.0.2401" />

Debugging it on a simulator, during start up, I get a crash report on the mac saying Termination Reason: DYLD 1 Library missing Library not loaded: @rpath/Protobuf.framework/Protobuf

I have tried upgrading the version to 8.10.1 as well. No luck. Help please.

Is this project dead or something? I havent seen single reply in over 20 days. Its a serious bug not letting me even install the nugget so I would think there would be some sense of urgency to resolve this..
