compose-multiplatform: App Store verification fails with "The app references non-public symbols"

Describe the bug I implemented a library which uses Compose Multiplatform to display logs and added it to the iOS project. It builds fine, but when I upload the app to the App Store, lane fails with the following error:

ERROR: [ContentDelivery.Uploader] Asset validation failed (11) The app references non-public symbols in Payload/AppName.app/AppName: _ubidi_close, _ubidi_getDirection, _ubidi_getLength, _ubidi_getLevelAt, _ubidi_openSized, _ubidi_reorderVisual, _ubidi_setPara, _ubrk_clone, _ubrk_current, _ubrk_first, _ubrk_getRuleStatus, _ubrk_next, _uloc_getDefault, _uloc_toLanguageTag, _uscript_getScript (ID: b685f704-5d49-42c6-b138-5d9237029ac2)

I googled this problem and it seems that there’s some problem with SKIA library (https://groups.google.com/g/skia-discuss/c/eY229SYmHbA)

So there’s a question - how can I fix this issue? Thanks in advance for the answer!

@dima-avdeev-jb sorry for the delay, here’s the sample https://github.com/SergeiMikhailovskii/log-view-app

and here’s the library which uses compose-multiplatform https://github.com/sergei-mikhailovskii-idf/kmm-debug-view

Hi there!

We’ve renamed these symbols in an underlying library to avoid name-conflicts and false-positive “non-public symbols” detection. This fix will be available in 1.6.1. But if you want to try it out now, you can manually replace a skiko library by adding this at the end of build.gradle.kts file:

configurations.all {
    resolutionStrategy.eachDependency {
        if (requested.group.startsWith("org.jetbrains.skiko")) {
            useVersion("0.7.96")
        }
    }
}

Please let us know if this works for you

@sergei-mikhailovskii-idf Can you please try some of solutions what I mentioned before?

hello, sorry, didn’t find a time yet( I’ll try to do it approximately 23-24 December

@sergei-mikhailovskii-idf Can you please check validation in Xcode when building archive?

To do so you need folow these steps:

Go to Product -> Archive

* Don't use Xcode Cloud and start proccess of Archive again. * Wait some time while archiving * Choose Validate App

@dima-avdeev-jb I select “Validate App” in the third step and it also fine, but when I select “Distribute App” I get an email from Apple telling me the same error message! I hope this helps.
