Couldn't read values in CFPrefsPlistSource when presenting UIActivityViewController

When I try to display a UIActivityViewController, I get funky logging in the xcode console.

This is my code:

@IBAction func shareAction(_ sender: Any) {
        // text to share
        let text = "Some very interesting text!"
        let url = Constants.URL.appStore.absoluteString
        guard let logo = UIImage(named: "App Logo")?
            .circle()            
            .resize(333, 333) else { return }
        
        // set up activity view controller
        let itemsToShare: [Any] = [ logo, text, url ]
        
        let activityViewController = UIActivityViewController(activityItems: itemsToShare, applicationActivities: nil)
        activityViewController.popoverPresentationController?.sourceView = self.view
        
        // exclude some activity types from the list
        if #available(iOS 15.4, *) {
            activityViewController.excludedActivityTypes = [ .airDrop, .sharePlay ]
        } else {
            activityViewController.excludedActivityTypes = [ .airDrop ]
        }
        
        // present the Share Sheet
        self.present(activityViewController, animated: true, completion: nil)
    }

The logging emerges in the console as soon as the code calls:

        self.present(activityViewController, animated: true, completion: nil)

When I set a break point on that line, no logging occurs. If I add a completion block to that call with a break point on the first line, the logging occurs before it hits that break point. so all logging seems to be generated while displaying the UIActivityViewController.

This is my logging

I have been looking on the internet and found nothing.

I have been looking in this forum, and found one possible match (without a solution): https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/746721

When looking through the logging: 'entitlement com.apple.runningboard.primitiveattribute' Should I add something to my entitlements to be allowed to show a UIActivityViewController?

Is that the solution? If so: How do I add that entitlement? (or any of the other entitlements mentioned there) And since when is that required??

The app (and this feature) seem to work like a charm ... so I could ignore. Only I find it difficult to ignore RED logging by xcode. If it is red, it is bound to be kinda serious, right?

Or is there a whole other reason / cause why I suddenly get this?

Now running:

  • xcode Version 15.3 (15E204a)
  • iOS 17.4.1
