Build for ios fails with Undefined symbols for architecture arm64, Flutter/Flutter.framework/Flutter binary missing #55013

Description

@kaciula

I cannot build the ios version of the app. It used to work a week ago but I cannot figure out what changed since then. I'm using the stable version. I tried several things but none worked. I'm adding all the logs below. If you need any other info, I will provide it.

Logs

Here is my Podfile. The only changes from the default one are specifying the platform and adding a pre_install hook to fix the transitive dependencies error first.

# Uncomment this line to define a global platform for your project
platform :ios, '11.0'

# CocoaPods analytics sends network stats synchronously affecting flutter build latency.
ENV['COCOAPODS_DISABLE_STATS'] = 'true'
