Macro in combination with dynamic frameworks do not generate

What happened?

This is particularly in reference to The Composable Architecture. I have my project currently configured based on Tuist recommendations here: https://tuist.dev/en/docs/guides/features/projects/dependencies#the-composable-architecture

The issue I faced is that since swift-case-paths version 1.8.0, TCA has converted the CasePathsMacrosSupport library to be a macro. So after upgrading the libraries to that version I am seeing this error:

Target SwiftNavigationMacros has platforms 'macOS' and product 'Swift Macro' and depends on target CasePathsMacrosSupport of type 'dynamic framework' and platforms 'macOS' which is an invalid or not yet supported combination.
Target CasePathsMacros has platforms 'macOS' and product 'Swift Macro' and depends on target CasePathsMacrosSupport of type 'dynamic framework' and platforms 'macOS' which is an invalid or not yet supported combination.

The problem lies in that the CasePathsMacrosSupport cannot be dynamic. The solution I’ve found currently is adding this line

"CasePathsMacrosSupport": .staticFramework,

to the existing dependency configuration to pin that macro to a static framework. However I wonder if there’s any configuration that can be done so that macros target types are automatically pinned to static? At the very least i can open up a PR to update the TCA section of the dependencies doc.

How do we reproduce it?

I can’t seem to attach a zip file of my project, but this is the project config and the Package.swift file:

import ProjectDescription

let project = Project(

To reproduce it the issue, just make a project and the folders specified above (I had just a blank Test.swift file in Sources/Module/Sources). Then install, and run generate you should run into the issue. I can also email the zip over since it doesn’t seem to be attaching.
