@jordanperry want to provide a PR that fixes this including tests? Careful though because this change happened on purpose to fix another issue which I do not recall and I need to dig up for you.

I too am experiencing this and the workaround fixes this for me (although '$1' appears on line 75 for me, not 81).

[jordanperry]

@Rajveer86 I've updated the Podfile for the project that experiences this issue to contain the following, so that I don't have to manually update my file after running pod install:

post_install do |installer|
    text = File.read("Pods/Target Support Files/Pods-Project/Pods-Project-frameworks.sh")
    new_contents = text.gsub(/'\$1'/, "\\\"$1\\\"")

    File.open("Pods/Target Support Files/Pods-Project/Pods-Project-frameworks.sh", "w") {|file| file.puts new_contents}
end

@dnkoutso I haven't had the time to look into providing a fix inside CocoaPods. We are satisfied with the workaround here.

@jordanperry Thank you for posting your post_install script, that works perfectly for me!
