Multiple commands produce PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy

[Mihai-github]

What happened?

Required by Apple to add my PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy into my project for NSPrivacyAccessedAPICategoryDiskSpace and NSPrivacyAccessedAPICategorySystemBootTime and once I've added it my build crashes with the below error:

❌  error: Multiple commands produce '/Users/builder/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/APP-astjpotccmrftsebuxjhqlzufvhq/Build/Intermediates.noindex/ArchiveIntermediates/APP/InstallationBuildProductsLocation/Applications/APP.app/PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy'

I've come across a Medium (https://jochen-holzer.medium.com/required-reason-api-troubleshooting-your-ios-privacy-manifest-file-privacyinfo-xcprivacy-c81084dc9d51) article stating:

Error: ’Multiple commands produce PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy' (when using a third party library via cocoapods)

Solution: The problem seems to appear when using 3rd party cocoapods which include a PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy file.

The problem must be solved by the developer of the 3rd party lib by changing the podspec:
Change:

sp.resource = “Sources/Resources/PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy”

to

sp.resource_bundles = { “Podname” => “Sources/Resources/PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy” }

To be honest I'm not sure if this is the package that is causing my issue but looking at the build logs this is the only one I can see having a log like this:

▸ Copying /Users/builder/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/APP-astjpotccmrftsebuxjhqlzufvhq/Build/Intermediates.noindex/ArchiveIntermediates/APP/IntermediateBuildFilesPath/UninstalledProducts/iphoneos/RNCAsyncStorage_resources.bundle/PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy

checking for install build only check box in copy bundle resources under build phases can help

We already bundle Privacy Manifest as a bundle, so I think this might be a different package?
