Answer 1

This happened because you installed the cn1lib in the past and didn't remove it. On Android this will include the cn1lib anyway and you'll just have a bit of overhead but on iOS we strip unused code. (Notice that on Android the obfuscation stage will probably remove the library code).

Unfortunately the native code in the library can't detect that this stripping of unused code occurred and would result in this compilation error.
