I have the 'same' - just in a concrete target

That's odd, you should be getting an error about the pod not being used in any concrete targets

segiddins on 19 May 2016

I have the same error with a more complete Podfile and an previous version.

If I remove the configuration: 'Debug' part of FLEX it works. If I move FLEX into the concrete target it also works.

+1, pod with ['Debug'] configuration in abstract_target seems not working.

I'm facing the same problem, but my configuration is different. I'm not using abstract targets and have a different inherit setting.

This works

source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs'

platform :ios, '10.0'

project 'Conosci_Italiano', 'Debug' => :debug

# Uncomment this line if you use Swift
use_frameworks!

target 'Conosci_Italiano' do
  pod 'Curry', '~> 3.0.0'
  pod 'Firebase', '~> 3.11.0'
  pod 'FirebaseAuth', '~> 3.1.0'
  pod 'FirebaseDatabase', '~> 3.1.1'
  pod 'JVFloatLabeledTextField', '~> 1.1.1'
  pod 'NSObject+Rx', '~> 2.0.0'
  pod 'NSString-Helper', '~> 1.0.5'
  pod 'PureLayout', '~> 3.0.2'
  pod 'Reveal-SDK', :configurations => ['Debug']
  pod 'RxDataSources', '~> 1.0.2'
  pod 'RxCocoa', '~> 3.1.0'
  pod 'RxOptional', '~> 3.1.3'
  pod 'RxSwift', '~> 3.1.0'

  target 'UnitTests' do
    inherit! :complete

    pod 'Quick', '~> 1.0.0'
    pod 'Nimble', '~> 5.1.1'
    pod 'Nimble-Snapshots'
    pod 'Nimble-Snapshots/DynamicSize'
    pod 'PivotalCoreKit', '~> 0.3.2'
    pod 'PivotalCoreKit/UIKit/SpecHelper/Extensions', '~> 0.3.2'
    pod 'RxBlocking', '~> 3.1.0'
    pod 'TUDelorean', :git => 'https://github.com/tuenti/TUDelorean'
  end

  target 'FlowTests' do
    inherit! :complete

    pod 'KIF', '~> 3.0'
  end

end

While this doesn't:

source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs'

platform :ios, '10.0'

project 'Conosci_Italiano', 'Debug' => :debug

# Uncomment this line if you use Swift
use_frameworks!

target 'Conosci_Italiano' do
  pod 'Curry', '~> 3.0.0'
  pod 'Firebase', '~> 3.11.0'
  pod 'FirebaseAuth', '~> 3.1.0'
  pod 'FirebaseDatabase', '~> 3.1.1'
  pod 'JVFloatLabeledTextField', '~> 1.1.1'
  pod 'NSObject+Rx', '~> 2.0.0'
  pod 'NSString-Helper', '~> 1.0.5'
  pod 'PureLayout', '~> 3.0.2'
  pod 'Reveal-SDK', :configurations => ['Debug']
  pod 'RxDataSources', '~> 1.0.2'
  pod 'RxCocoa', '~> 3.1.0'
  pod 'RxOptional', '~> 3.1.3'
  pod 'RxSwift', '~> 3.1.0'

  target 'UnitTests' do
    inherit! :complete

    pod 'Quick', '~> 1.0.0'
    pod 'Nimble', '~> 5.1.1'
    pod 'Nimble-Snapshots'
    pod 'Nimble-Snapshots/DynamicSize'
    pod 'PivotalCoreKit', '~> 0.3.2'
    pod 'PivotalCoreKit/UIKit/SpecHelper/Extensions', '~> 0.3.2'
    pod 'RxBlocking', '~> 3.1.0'
    pod 'TUDelorean', :git => 'https://github.com/tuenti/TUDelorean'
  end

  target 'FlowTests' do
    inherit! :complete

    pod 'KIF', '~> 3.0', :configurations => ['Debug']
  end

end

The only difference is this: pod 'KIF', '~> 3.0', :configurations => ['Debug']. Omitting the :configurations setting makes it work.

There hasn't been any activity on this issue recently. Due to the high number of incoming GitHub notifications, we have to clean some of the old issues, as many of them have already been resolved with the latest updates.
