We decided to add Podfile fix to the new version of `bitrise-init`.

The scanner sometimes fails with:

```auto
[15:42:39] e[34;1mSearching for Podfilese[0m
[15:42:39] 1 Podfiles detected
[15:42:39] - LocallySelected/Podfile
[15:42:49] e[31;1mAnalyzer failed, error: No Podfile exists at path `LocallySelected/Podfile`.e[0m

```

**No Podfile exists at path** comes from cocoapods-core gem’s `Podfile.from_file()` function, see: [https://coveralls.io/jobs/318882/source\_files/33543988#L213](https://coveralls.io/jobs/318882/source_files/33543988#L213)

As a fix, i expanded the Podfile path, used by this ruby scripts and improved the error logging, PR: [https://github.com/bitrise-core/bitrise-init/pull/70](https://github.com/bitrise-core/bitrise-init/pull/70)

Another Podfile related issue:

```auto
[09:10:13] e[34;1mSearching for Podfilese[0m
[09:10:13] 1 Podfiles detected
[09:10:13] - Podfile
[09:10:24] e[31;1mAnalyzer failed, error: Pod::DSLErrore[0m

```

This seems to be an issue in the Podfile or in Pod’s spec, based on this threads:

bitrise-init will print the files in the search dir if no platform detected.

`tree . -L 3`
