[iOS] ITMS-90048: This bundle is invalid - Your archive contains paths that are not allowed: [._Symbols] #166367

Description

@Kuhlemann

Steps to reproduce

  1. flutter build ipa any app which builds / runs without any problem on iOS.
  2. Upload the .ipa-file to App Store Connect with the Transporter-App on Mac.
  3. The build will get declined automatically.

Things I tried:

  • MacBook restart
  • flutter clean
  • rm -rf ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData
  • Using the newest master version 3.31.0-1.0.pre.363.

The day before yesterday my app didn't have the problem.
So I guess the error has to do with iOS 18.4 / Xcode 16.3.

Expected results

Build succeeds in App Store Connect

Actual results

The build gets automatically declined:
ITMS-90048: This bundle is invalid - Your archive contains paths that are not allowed: [._Symbols]
