Exclude PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy from Copy Bundle Resources about xcodegen HOT 11 CLOSED

We just started seeing warnings from ASC that we're now missing the privacy manifest after upgrading to the latest XcodeGen. If it helps: our setup is separate manifests, one for each bundle which was working perfectly before this change - https://github.com/element-hq/element-x-ios

from xcodegen.

This has been reverted and released as 2.40.1 👍

from xcodegen.

I'm confused, because my reading of Apple's privacy manifest docs, specifically the first 'Note', is that they must be a target resource.

I get no error with a project with a single xcprivacy file which is in the copy resources build phase using Xcode 15.3 (Build version 15E204a) and Xcodegen 2.39.1:

CpResource /Users/<redacted>/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/<redacted>/Build/Products/Debug-iphoneos/<App>.app/PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy /Users/<redacted>/<Projects>/<Project>/<App>/PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy (in target '<App>' from project '<Project>')
    cd /Users/<redacted>/<Projects>/<Project>
    builtin-copy -exclude .DS_Store -exclude CVS -exclude .svn -exclude .git -exclude .hg -resolve-src-symlinks /Users/<redacted>/<Projects>/<Project>/<App>/PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy /Users/<redacted>/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/<redacted>/Build/Products/Debug-iphoneos/<App>.app

And I'm concerned that this change is going to start suppressing the privacy manifests which may cause app rejections starting 1 May.

For those of us who were relying on the previous default behaviour, adding this to options: got us back to the previous behaviour:

fileTypes:
    xcprivacy:
      buildPhase: resources

from xcodegen.

Sounds like changing this default was perhaps an error. I will make a hotfix later today.
Can anyone else confirm the correct handling of this file, for assurance?

from xcodegen.

Our latest build is failing as well:

error: Multiple commands produce '/Users/[REDACTED]/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/redacted-gdlfekfxlrxrfhbnavwhuygpgppu/Build/Intermediates.noindex/ArchiveIntermediates/redacted/InstallationBuildProductsLocation/Applications/redacted.app/PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy'

We have one xcprivacy for multiple targets. The targets are using the same folders, and they are released on different stores depending on what's on each xcconfig.

from xcodegen.

UP!

from xcodegen.

It's possible to add this to a preceding path with an includes that sets a custom build phase, but the easiest way is to set a project wide file default

options:
  fileTypes:
    xcprivacy:
      buildPhase: none

I'll open this issue back up though as a marker for someone to open a one line PR to add this as an XcodeGen default here

from xcodegen.

@arisupriatna14 back to your original question, do you have multiple targets referencing the same privacy file?

from xcodegen.

@arisupriatna14 or a single target referencing multiple privacy manifests?

from xcodegen.

Hi, I don't know if can be related, but we're not being able to link the xcprivacy file to the targets.
We've the file created in the root folder, at the same level as the plist
