Bug Build for iPhone failed due to the launch icon in build 10.3837

I keep getting those messages when attempting to build for iOS (iPhone) more than once:

"Compressed texture icon is used as icon. This might compromise visual quality of the final image. Uncompressed format might be considered as better import option."

and:

DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path '/Users/me/Downloads/New Unity Project/Xcode/Unity-iPhone/Images.xcassets/LaunchImage.launchimage'.

It won't happen the first time I build (or if I delete the build folder and start over). If I change the compression of the launch icon to None, the first warning won't appear (even though it has never appeared in previous versions) but the second still occurs. I started a fresh new project with nothing but an image that I set as the default icon in Project Settings->Player. It also happens on another project.

Using Mac running macOS 10.15.5.

 

Update: I sent a bug report to Unity and was told that this issue is already fixed in build 11. Admins: please delete this thread.

 

@LeonhardP same is happening in 2019.4 LTS. Any plans to fix there?

 

Yes, it's all been fixed since build 11

 

I'm also seeing this error. We have to move to a 2020 beta to get this fix?

 

We need a fix on Unity 2019.4 LTS!

 

So the only option is to 'upgrade' to a beta version... any plans on fixing this for the LTS 2019??

 

Yes, the fix for 2019.4 is currently in review:
