Swiftlint: Unable to read license file when installing via CocoaPods

[ZevEisenberg]

The SwiftLint Podspec is pointing to the license file in the repository, but maybe something about also using a .zip instead of pointing to the repository itself is confusing CocoaPods. Maybe just specify MIT, without pointing to a file?

Podfile:

# Uncomment the next line to define a global platform for your project
# platform :ios, '9.0'

target 'Licensator' do
  # Comment the next line if you're not using Swift and don't want to use dynamic frameworks
  use_frameworks!

  pod 'SwiftLint'

end

results of pod install:

Pod installation complete! There is 1 dependency from the Podfile and 1 total pod installed.

I think CocoaPods doesn't even clone the repo as there's no mention of it in the Podspec. We should probably just add the license file to the zip.

Sorry to bump up it again, but the problem still persist

@migfabio could you please file a new issue with exact steps to reproduce (e.g. what commands to run, which versions of tools to have installed, how they're installed, what's in your Podfile, etc). Thanks!

I'm having this issue just running pod spec lint, I'm using 1.3.1.

Does anybody found a solution for this one?

I had this warning and it was fixed by commenting all the pods in the Podfile then running pod install then uncomment them back running pod install. I don't know why but it worked fine.
