flutter make-host-app-editable --ios && flutter build ios-framework crashes, ios/Flutter/AppFrameworkInfo.plist not found

Steps to Reproduce

Trying ios-framework build for containing the module project using some plugins by add2app, it will cause crashing during a build process.
We're confusing about it because our team wants to provide a module made of flutter for another team.

Run flutter create -t module module_test && cd module_test.
Run flutter make-host-app-editable to be editable
Add some plugin (not package) like a image_picker
Run flutter build ios-framework and it will crash

$ flutter build ios-framework --output=tmp
The plugin `flutter_plugin_android_lifecycle` is built using an older version of the Android plugin API which assumes that it's running in a full-Flutter environment. It may have
undefined behaviors when Flutter is integrated into an existing app as a module.
The plugin can be updated to the v2 Android Plugin APIs by following https://flutter.dev/go/android-plugin-migration.

# followed by an optional build number separated by a +.
# Both the version and the builder number may be overridden in flutter

# In Android, build-name is used as versionName while build-number used as versionCode.
# Read more about Android versioning at https://developer.android.com/studio/publish/versioning

make-host-app-editable is now deprecated, closing.

So do we have alternative now? because of make-host-app-editable is now deprecated,

@kyleada

@kyleada As of #70647 (available in 1.25.0-4.0.pre, currently the dev channel) if you use flutter build ios-framework (option C in the docs) you can embed iOS frameworks for a non-module app, so one that was created with flutter create instead of flutter create -t module. This isn't supported for Android, and it isn't yet documented.

This thread has been automatically locked since there has not been any recent activity after it was closed. If you are still experiencing a similar issue, please open a new bug, including the output of flutter doctor -v and a minimal reproduction of the issue.
