I have a custom swift package I am building that has as one of its dependencies a package (Bugfender) that is an xcframework and is iOS only (and Mac Catalyst). Understandably, when I try to compile this package in Xcode (12.5) I get an error that a mac library for that package cannot be found (all iOS specific code is wrapped in a #if os(iOS) block).
Based on this (https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/proposals/0273-swiftpm-conditional-target-dependencies.md) addition to the Swift package spec, I thought I could use a condition to exclude the dependency for mac, but when I try the following Swift.package file, I still get the same error when building for mac. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? It seems like it should work based on this post as well (Swift package manager: How best to indicate platform dependent code?)
