duplicate symbols for architecture arm64 (Xcode error)

Question

I deleted all reference to GoogleMobileAdsSDKiOS-7.1 from my project and added 7.4.1. When I ran app on simulator everything works fine but when running on device I get App Mach-O Linker Error.

 ld: 21 duplicate symbols for architecture arm64
 clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

I know this error means I have duplicates of the above but my problem is where in Xcode 6.1 do I find these duplicates so I can delete them? I've looked in info.plist, build settings, can't find any duplicates. Where in Xcode 6.1 are the duplicates located ?

Answer 1

Try remove the "-ObjC" linker flag from the "Other Linker Flags" section of build settings.
