Why does my Podspec throws multiple: "Execution policy exception registration failed and was skipped" notes?

Question

Podspec is:

Pod::Spec.new do |s|
    s.name             = 'MyPod'
    s.version          = '0.1.0'
    s.summary          = 'my summary.'
    s.platform         = :ios, '13.0'
    s.description      = <<-DESC
  My description.
                         DESC
    s.homepage         = 'https://github.com/MyAccount/MyPod'
    s.license          = { :type => 'MIT', :file => 'LICENSE' }
    s.author           = { 'Me' => 'my@email.com' }
    s.source           = { :git => 'https://github.com/MyAccount/MyPod.git', :tag => s.version.to_s }
    s.swift_version    = '5.0'
    s.source_files     = 'MyPod/Classes/**/*'
    s.static_framework = true

    s.dependency 'Firebase'
    s.dependency 'Firebase/Core'
    s.dependency 'Firebase/Auth'
    s.dependency 'Firebase/Database'
    s.dependency 'GoogleSignIn'
    s.dependency 'GoogleAPIClientForREST/Core'
    s.dependency 'GoogleAPIClientForREST/Sheets'
    s.dependency 'GTMAppAuth'
  end

(MyPod etc are stand-ins for actual Pod name)

pod lib lint MyPod.podspec produces:

MyPod passed validation.

Environment:

CocoaPods version: 1.8.4
Operating System: Catalina 10.15.1 Beta 
Xcode version: 11.2

(I am aware of the similar question: Execution policy exception registration failed and was skipped: Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=1 "Operation not permitted")

ADDENDUM

I just tried making a very plain Pod including the default dependency AFNetworking that is included (if commented out) in the .podspec file that is created by running pod lib create MyPod. Produces the same result:

 -> MyOtherPod (0.1.0)

Do you have an `info.plist` file that is properly configured in your pod's build settings? `NOTE | [iOS] xcodebuild: warning: Skipping code signing because the target does not have an Info.plist file and one is not being generated automatically.

Thank you for the comment @CodeBender I haven't had time to check this since, but I hope your suggestion is useful to others — Joseph Beuys' Mum, Dec 19 '19 at 10:26
I made a comment on how to let it go away in your the other linked question https://stackoverflow.com/q/58686708/ but I this is not the root cause to my understanding which is what you're asking for. — Bruno Bieri, Jun 15 '20 at 07:34
