What is causing this Crashlytics compile warning? (Auto-Linking supplied '...' framework linker option at '...' is not a dylib)
Compiling my main target (not a test target like here) yields this error:
ld: warning: Auto-Linking supplied
'~/Documents/my_app/MyApp/Crashlytics.framework/Crashlytics',
framework linker option at
~/Documents/my_app/MyApp/Crashlytics.framework/Crashlytics
is not a dylib
From this build command:

The Missing Link:
This error is almost always produced by not having the binary linked to the library (In this case it would be the Crashlytics.framework):

Trying to build the target MyApp (which includes headers with #import <Crashlytics/Crashlytics.h> will produce the error:
ld: warning: Auto-Linking supplied '../../Crashlytics.framework/Crashlytics', framework linker option at ../../Crashlytics.framework/Crashlytics is not a dylib
Link the Framework:

Make sure you have your App selected/highlighted under Targets while doing this process.

I had the same issue but my reason was different.
Error Output

Reason
My target was overriding the OTHER_LDFLAGS.
Solution
Changed the OTHER_LDFLAGS to just inherit the Linker Flags. Basically, changed it to $(inherited)
I followed all steps provided by @i'L'i but I was not able to find Crashlytics.framework and Fabric.framework file in build phases.
So this helped me.
Step 1: Follow all the steps given Here.
Step 2: Now when you are unable to find Crashlytics.framework and Fabric.framework files in Link Binary With Libraries by clicking + do following.
2.1: Click on + button in Link Binary With Libraries.
2.2: Click on Add Other... button.
2.3: Now chose Crashlytic.framework and Fabric.framework from Pod folder - if using cocoapods, else choose both file from where you have downloaded it.
Step 3: Build Succeeded, Enjoy. :)
For future reference, this can also happen if you link your test files to your app target.
For example: https://github.com/realm/realm-cocoa/issues/1661
I had the same problem. Maybe I messed up the initial fabric install but once I added Fabric.framework to the list of frameworks (should be in the root folder of your app by default) everything worked.
Conversely to what I'L'I and user3517250 mention, the problem might also be that you have #import statements that shouldn't be there.
Xcode does infer the frameworks to link against from the #import statements. If you import a framework that you don't link against, then you get this warning.
