iOS - Build fails with CocoaPods cannot find header files

I have an iOS project using CocoaPods. Everything was working smoothly until another developer started to work on the same project. He made some changes (only to code as far as I know) and made a new branch in the repo. I have checked out his branch and tried to build it, but I am getting an error: ASLogger/ASLogger.h file not found.

Even if I delete the whole project and make a fresh copy and use 'pods install .' the build failure is still there. Do you have any idea where the problem can be? If you need some more infos, just ask.

If the headers aren't being imported, you probably have a conflict in the HEADER_SEARCH_PATHS. Try and add $(inherited) to the header search paths in your Build Settings to make sure that it pulls in any search paths included in the .xcconfig file from your CocoaPods.

This should help with any conflicts and get your source imported correctly.

Header files, you'll be the death of me...

Finally got it to work by adding (including quotes) 

"${PODS_ROOT}/BuildHeaders"

to the User Header Search Paths entry, and checking 'recursive'.

The wiki gives an advice on how to solve this problem:

If Xcode can’t find the headers of the dependencies:

Check if the pod header files are correctly symlinked in Pods/Headers and you are not overriding the HEADER_SEARCH_PATHS (see #1). If Xcode still can’t find them, as a last resort you can prepend your imports, e.g. #import "Pods/SSZipArchive.h".
