I shipped a build before the weekend everything works fine, I come back on Monday, impossible to build. I'm stuck on this for the past few days, I've been trying most of the stuff from the internet I can't seem to find a solution.
XCode build is failing specifying missing plugins (form the base Flutter install I'm guessing):
[ ] Xcode build done. 50.6s
[ ] Failed to build iOS app
[ ] Error output from Xcode build:

** BUILD FAILED **
It then generates error concerning Riverpod

What I have tried so far:
flutter cleanflutter pub cache repair- Rebuilding the iOS folder
- cleaning the build folder
pod update && pod installflutter upgrade- check the use of !use_frameworks in podfile
And other configuration changes in XCode such as the script 'for install only', etc...
The only thing I see would be that the problem is coming from a package that I'm using, such as Firebase Core. They had a similar problem a year ago or so where we had to downgrade the package version in order to build and the error was similar, the problem here is that I tried to downgrade from 1.2.1 to 0.7.0 but the problem persists until it generates dependencies issues. Same kind of issue happended with flutter_svg I think, it was due to a breaking change making it mandatory to either update flutter_svg or downgrade flutter.
Also, could it be that I have not migrated to sound null safety yet ?
If you have an idea on how to debug this, that would be very helpful. (Some stuff that I can run to have more infos regarding the error for example).
Here are my flutter doctor and pubspec files:

EDIT: It seems to be coming from riverpod 0.12.4. Updating it to the latest version generated another error but that requires code refactoring, I will update if the issue is resolved after the refactoring.
