[Questions] How can I resolve this "framework 'Preferences' not found" error during linking libcolorpicker when building with theos?

[fenwulf]

Have you read the FAQ?

• Yes, I did read the FAQ

Is there an existing issue/question for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Do you think this is a bug?

❌ No, I don't think this is a bug. I will explain below

My question

Disclaimer: I did not read the FAQ, as when I click it I get this popup:

I did search for the error, and did not find the issue in open issues, and searched several closed ones as well. I found it in a closed issue, however it was resolved with a commit.

I have a feeling I am doing something wrong, although I have installed all required packages for building with theos. I am following method 2 on this page. I have placed the sdk within theos/sdks. I even double checked that something was in ~/theos/sdks/iPhoneOS16.5.sdk/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/Preferences.framework. I have actually revisited this over the course of 2-3 months hoping a commit would fix it for me. I am just lost as to what I am doing wrong. I am using (from the linked patched ipa onedrive within this repo) YouTube 19.34.2.

I have followed the steps exactly. Here is my error, I can post the entire log if necessary but figured this is the important snippet:

Any help is welcome, thanks!

Use the code from the Makefile in the following pull request #1583.
It will remove the Preferences framework error you are encountering.

Thank you! That worked, unsure if I can post a follow up error here, its most likely unrelated:

@fenwulf I have the same issue. Have you found a solution?

@fenwulf I have the same issue. Have you found a solution?

Not yet. Unfortunately not super familiar with theos but I refuse to build with GitHub for some reason :)

[arichornloverALT]

I suggest using iOS 16.5 SDK.
I don’t think uYouPlus can build successfully with iOS 17.0-18.0+ SDK’s

[fenwulf]

I recommend using iOS 16.5 SDK. I don’t think uYouPlus can build successfully with iOS 17.0-18.0+ SDK’s

I am using that (the recommended) SDK.
