Xcode 13.3 beta 3: "swift package init" shows warning: "~/Library/org.swift.swiftpm/collections.json has been deprecated" but dunno how to use new one

Just upgraded to Xcode 13.3 beta 3 (from Xcode 13.2.1) and ran swift package init. It generated a deprecation warning, I have not seen this before:

warning: Usage of /Users/sajjon/Library/org.swift.swiftpm/collections.json has been deprecated. Please delete it and use the new /Users/sajjon/Library/org.swift.swiftpm/configuration/collections.json instead.

But I do not know HOW to "use the new … instead"? In fact I don’t even know how or when org.swift.swiftpm/collections.json was created.

What to do?

    Based on a comment from @jalone, this may cause Xcode to crash upon opening the project. It did not do that in my case but all I had was the generic Apple collections: https://developer.apple.com/swift/packages/collections/apple.json

    Proceed with caution

    It looks like all I needed to do is run this to get rid of the warning.

    rm ~/.swiftpm/config/collections.json

    There should be an additional collections.json located at ~/.swiftpm/config/configuration/collections.json that is where the packages are now stored when you use

    swift package-collection add <package.json>

    The warning says that you need to delete the file.

    Please delete it and use the new /Users/sajjon/Library/org.swift.swiftpm/configuration/collections.json instead.

    So please delete it and it will help.

    I saw this warning in Xcode 14 RC and was able to resolve it by removing and re-adding one of my packages (under Project > Package Dependencies).

    go to the path and open org.swift.swiftpm file, it will be open into IDE then remove collection.json that is available outside of the configuration folder. warning will be resolved.

    I faced this problem after I installed Xcode 14.0.
    Deleting org.swift.swiftpm worked for me:

    1. Make sure that anything related to SPM is not running including Xcode. Close them all before you delete anything.

    2. Go to directory and delete the entire org.swift.swiftpm directory (Not only collection directory, but the whole org.swift.swiftpm directory) and if there is also a org.swift.swiftpm.lock, delete that one as well.
