Podfile PXGoogleDirections and GoogleMaps conflicting names - xcode

Question

I'm trying to install a new pod (PXGoogleDirections) to my already existing xcode project which already had a GoogleMaps pod installed.
platform :ios, '8.0'
use_frameworks!
target 'Roadtrip' do
pod 'GoogleMaps'
pod 'PXGoogleDirections'
end
target 'RoadtripTests' do
end
target 'RoadtripUITests' do
end
When I run "pod install" I'm getting the error: "[!] The 'PROJECT' target has frameworks with conflicting names: GoogleMaps."
Any idea how I can fix that?
I've already tried to use the same GoogleMaps version as PXGoogleDirections uses, like so:
pod 'GoogleMaps', '1.10.4'
but I'm getting the same error.
Thanks for your help.

This is because PXGoogleDirections itself is bundled with GoogleMaps. In the documentation of PXGoogleDirections says the way to use googlemaps with it.
Check this
If your app also requires the Google Maps iOS SDK, you might run into
troubles because of conflicts with the bundled Google Maps iOS SDK in
the Cocoapod. If you happen to face these problems, please try to do
the following:
Add -framework "GoogleMaps" to the "Other Linker Flags" of your Xcode
project. Make sure you are linking your app with all the libraries and
frameworks required by the Google Maps iOS SDK. For a full list, see
here:
https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs/blob/master/Specs/GoogleMaps/1.10.4/GoogleMaps.podspec.json
Also make sure that your app contains the GoogleMaps.bundle in the
"Copy Bundle Resources" phase of the build process. If it doesn't, you
can manually add it to Xcode by browsing to the following directory in
the Finder:
/Pods/PXGoogleDirections/Dependencies/GoogleMaps.framework/Resources/GoogleMaps.bundle.
Drop it in the "Frameworks" group of your project and uncheck the
"Copy" checkbox.
