"Linker command failed" error on mobile build

I have seen various responses to this error, but still can’t find a solution. I am running Meteor 1.2.1 and trying to deploy to my iPhone. I did the following:

ran meteor add-platform ios
ran meteor run ios-device

In Xcode, I then selected my iPhone and hit run. The app is running fine on my local machine but I get this error in the XCode navigator:

The full error message is as follows:

ld: 6 duplicate symbols for architecture arm64
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Is the “Linker command” error due to the duplicate symbols or are they unrelated? I saw solutions online for disabling Bitcode in the project but that hasn’t changed anything. Any other suggestions?

Did you find a solution?

wondering if you you found a fix?

I am getting 2 duplicate symbols for architecture arm64
