title: React-Native: Error: Failed to install CocoaPods dependencies for iOS project, which is required by this template
body: <p>While executing <code>npx react-native init MyProject</code> I ran into the following error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>✖ Installing CocoaPods dependencies (this may take a few minutes)
  error Error: Failed to install CocoaPods dependencies for iOS project, which is required by this template.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Which seems to be related to an earlier error displayed:</p>
  
  <pre><code>checking for arm-apple-darwin-gcc... /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/cc -arch armv7 -isysroot 
  checking whether the C compiler works... no
  xcrun: error: SDK "iphoneos" cannot be located
  xcrun: error: SDK "iphoneos" cannot be located
  xcrun: error: SDK "iphoneos" cannot be located
  xcrun: error: unable to lookup item 'Path' in SDK 'iphoneos'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>XCode and its CLI seem to all run fine.</p>
  
  <p>My configuration:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>MacOS Catalina 10.15.1 (19B88) </li>
  <li>NPM 6.11.3 </li>
  <li>React-Native 0.61.4 </li>
  <li>XCode 11.2.1 (11B500)</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Any leads appreciated.</p>
