The firebase-ios-sdk team asserts that they have reverted the problematic change in Pod FirebaseCoreExtension in freshly released version 11.4.1, if you pod repo update and remove your Podfile.lock then pod install again...things might work for you?

Thanks guys, much appreciated. I think pod repo update has fixed it for me. It suddenly stopped working few days ago. All good now. Thank you all for the response and support.

this works for me and build success line 112 before error

 if let heartbeatLogger = requestConfiguration.heartbeatLogger {
      request.setValue(heartbeatLogger.headerValue(), forHTTPHeaderField: "X-Firebase-Client")
    }

solution

 if let heartbeatLogger = requestConfiguration.heartbeatLogger {
        await request.setValue(heartbeatLogger.asyncHeaderValue(), forHTTPHeaderField: "X-Firebase-Client")
    }
