Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile: Project already has a CocoaPods dependency with name SDWebImage - kotlin

Question

I have created a demo project to integrate cocoapods into the KMM project. I have followed this link from the official website. At step 3 while reimporting the project, I am receiving the following error.
Project already has a CocoaPods dependency with name SDWebImage , after which I am unable to even import this lib in KMM.
Can anyone please help with this?
Update: Adding build.gradle.kts
import org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.plugin.mpp.KotlinNativeTarget
plugins {
kotlin("multiplatform")
id("com.android.library")
kotlin("native.cocoapods")
}
// CocoaPods requires the podspec to have a version.
version = "1.0"
kotlin {
android()
ios {
cocoapods {
// Configure fields required by CocoaPods.
summary = "Some description for a Kotlin/Native module"
homepage = "Link to a Kotlin/Native module homepage"
pod("SDWebImage")
// You can change the name of the produced framework.
// By default, it is the name of the Gradle project.
frameworkName = "shared"
}
}

When you’re using cocoapods plugin you don’t need to manually declare packForXcode target, maybe that’s the problem. Try to remove everything after val packForXcode
cocoapods section should be inside kotlin, not inside ios
