Flutter Error: “No podspec found for flutter_meta_sdk_flutter in .symlinks/plugins/flutter_meta_sdk_flutter/ios” when running Flutter project on iOS

Problem:

I’m encountering an issue when running my Flutter project on iOS. The build fails with the error

[!] No podspec found for ‘flutter_meta_sdk_flutter’ in ‘.symlinks/plugins/flutter_meta_sdk_flutter/ios’.

– Project works on android**

Statement:**

I recently added the flutter_meta_sdk_flutter plugin to my Flutter project to integrate Facebook’s Meta SDK. Everything works fine on Android, but when I attempt to run the project on iOS, the build process fails with a podspec error related to the flutter_meta_sdk_flutter plugin.

Tried Solutions:

pod install –repo-update output:

    1.  Cleaned the Flutter project:
    •   Ran flutter clean
    •   Reinstalled dependencies using flutter pub get
    2.  Rebuilt iOS-specific code:
    •   Deleted Podfile.lock and Pods/
    •   Ran pod deintegrate
    •   Reinstalled pods using pod install --repo-update
    3.  Verified the plugin: Checked the plugin’s documentation on pub.dev to ensure it supports iOS, but couldn’t find specific information related to iOS support.
    4.  Manually linked the plugin in the Podfile:
    •   Added pod 'flutter_meta_sdk_flutter', :path => '.symlinks/plugins/flutter_meta_sdk_flutter/ios' to the Podfile.
    •   Reinstalled pods, but the error persists.

I’m unsure if this issue is due to the plugin not supporting iOS (which I doubt), an incorrect setup on my side, or something else.

How can I resolve this issue and successfully run my Flutter project on iOS?
