A while ago I [wrote](/2022/swift-package-framework/) about some trouble I had getting Xcode to cooperate with my efforts to bring my app file size back under control after adding a new Swift Package dependency. Well, I'm happy to say I finally have: the most recent TestFlight build of Tusker has a 6.7MB install size, down from 25MB.

Ultimately I did take the route of turning my framework into a Swift Package. I revisited it because I noticed in another project that local packages inside the same folder as the main project worked perfectly fine. The only difference I found was that the project where it worked used only an `.xcodeproj`, whereas Tusker used an `.xcworkspace`. So, I deleted the (for unrelated reasons, no longer necessary) workspace and found that, after quitting and relaunching Xcode, the local package worked perfectly fine.

I briefly started writing a feedback report, but upon further testing I found that xcworkspaces in general weren't the problem—a new project and workspace worked fine. So, I gave up trying to reproduce it and assumed there was just something weird about the 3.5 year old workspace.
