CocoaPods conflict: flutter_webrtc and livekit_client depend on different WebRTC-SDK versions #856
Description
When trying to build a Flutter macOS app with livekit_client 2.5.0+hotfix.1, I’m hitting a CocoaPods resolution error due to mismatched WebRTC-SDK versions:
CocoaPods could not find compatible versions for pod "WebRTC-SDK":
In Podfile:
flutter_webrtc (from `Flutter/ephemeral/.symlinks/plugins/flutter_webrtc/macos`) was resolved to 1.1.0, which depends on
WebRTC-SDK (= 137.7151.03)
livekit_client (from `Flutter/ephemeral/.symlinks/plugins/livekit_client/macos`) was resolved to 2.5.0+hotfix.1, which depends on
WebRTC-SDK (= 137.7151.02)
This prevents the project from compiling since CocoaPods can only resolve one version.
⸻
Steps to Reproduce
1. Create a new Flutter macOS project
2. Add livekit_client: ^2.5.0+hotfix.1
3. Run flutter build macos
4. Observe CocoaPods dependency resolution error
⸻
Expected Behavior
livekit_client and its transitive dependency flutter_webrtc should align on the same WebRTC-SDK version to allow CocoaPods to resolve dependencies cleanly.
⸻
Actual Behavior
Build fails with version conflict (137.7151.02 vs 137.7151.03).
⸻
Flutter (Channel stable, 3.35.1, on macOS 15.6 24G84 darwin-arm64, locale en-AU)
Android toolchain - develop for Android devices (Android SDK version 35.0.0)
Xcode - develop for iOS and macOS (Xcode 16.4)
Android Studio (version 2025.1)
Possible Solution
• Update livekit_client to depend on WebRTC-SDK (= 137.7151.03) (or whichever version flutter_webrtc currently requires)
• Alternatively, loosen the Podspec constraint to allow compatible patch versions
