I just resolved an instance of this problem with Apple support.

The problem turned out to be some junk files were being included in the IPA file from my CI/CD system. In particular I had a .gitkeep file which came from a rsync command, and a .DS_Store file which I put there indirectly by poking around with Finder.

The fix was to tighten the rsync command I was using to import some frameworks from Jenkins to exclude .gitkeep, .DS_Store and any other dot-files.

YMMV. The support engineer agreed that it was a confusing error message.

To be safe, all components of your app should be built with the same version of Xcode and the Swift compiler to ensure that they work together.

I think you need to do a pod clean and install. I reckon one of your swift pods was created on a old version of Xcode, you updated Xcode and then tried to do a submission to the app store.

Read the apple swift blog about binary compatibility and frameworks

You will also want to specify that your embedded content contains swift in the build settings:

EMBEDDED_CONTENT_CONTAINS_SWIFT

Enable this setting to indicate that content embedded in a target's product contains Swift code, so that the standard Swift libraries can be included in the product.
