What does"current executable" (1.5.2) means ?

回答1:

The error you are getting is due to your podfile.lock being built with an older version of Cocoapods. All you need to do is to delete your podfile.lock file and run pod install. This will create a new podfile.lock, with your current dependencies. Note that it should not take too long because your files should already be downloaded, they just need to be linked in said file.
