MAUI build error targetting ios-arm64 with transitive dependency

SQLCipher Issues
1

As of SqlCipher 4.5.5 we get the following build error when attempting to compile a MAUI net8.0 project targeting ios-arm64:

error : clang++ exited with code 1
error : Undefined symbols for architecture arm64
error :   "_sqlite3_aggregate_context", referenced from

The problem does not occur when sqlcipher is referenced directly. It only occurs when sqlcipher is referenced in a dependency of the main project.

Reproduce:

  1. On a mac download and unzip attached project
  2. Open terminal, cd to SqlCipherTest folder containing SqlCipherTest.csproj
  3. Compile with dotnet build -p:Configuration=Debug -f net8.0-ios -r ios-arm64

Observations

  • Notice that when the following references are added to the main SqlCipherTest.csproj, the build error no longer occurs.
<PackageReference Include="zetetic-sqlite-net-base" Version="4.5.5" />
<PackageReference Condition="$(TargetFramework) == 'net8.0-android'" Include="zetetic-sqlcipher-android" Version="4.5.5" />
<PackageReference Condition="$(TargetFramework) == 'net8.0-ios'" Include="zetetic-sqlcipher-ios" Version="4.5.5" />
  • When downgrading to 4.5.4, the error does not occur.

I would love to upload the repro project, but I’m not allowed?

Also, my organisation has an enterprise license. Not sure this is the right place for me to report this.
