Missing MapboxMobileEvents.framework/Info.plist

Describe the bug After following the @react-native-mapbox-gl/maps installation instructions for iOS, the app was unable to be installed on a simulator because of a missing Info.plist file for MapboxMobileEvents.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior.

1. Create project and install @react-native-mapbox-gl/maps

react-native init MapboxMobileEventsBugReproduction --version 0.66.3
cd MapboxMobileEventsBugReproduction
npm install @react-native-mapbox-gl/maps@8.5.0 --save

1. Modify Podfile by ensuring the following hooks exist

  pre_install do |installer|
    $RNMBGL.pre_install(installer)
    [ ... ]
  end

  post_install do |installer|
    $RNMBGL.post_install(installer)
    [ ... ]
  end

1. Install Pods

cd ios && pod install && cd ..

1. Open Xcode, target an iPhone 11 simulated device and click the “Start the active scheme” play button (Xcode)

Expected behavior MapboxMobileEventsBugReproduction installs and launches successfully on the simulated device.

Actual behavior After a successful build, while installing the app onto an iOS simulated device, a popup within Xcode is displayed saying that the app cannot be installed because of a missing Info.plist file within MapboxMobileEvents.

Tried

• Clearing Cococapod cache
• Reintegrating Cocoapods
• Reinstalling Cocoapods
• Clearing ios build directory
• Clearing DerivedData directory
• /example project (same result)

This issue has been haunting me for weeks. Usually clearing Pods, Podfile.lock, and doing a rain dance fixes it. But lately no luck at all.

[mfazekas]

I’ve also seen this. pod clean, pod deintegrate, delete podfile.lock doesn't But then a restart fixed for me. Most likely a very weird Xcode issue
