I was happy to see that Apple was allowing popovers on iPhone in iOS 8 (in certain cases anyway, larger iPhones, landscape only) and I switched some code from showing UIPickerview to UIPopoverController, like I use in this app for iPad. Now I'm getting reports of this crashing in iOS 8.1, and in my tests I see the crash on the second line below:
XfrGraphTypeVC *graphTypePopover = [[XfrGraphTypeVC alloc]
initWithNibName:@"XfrGraphTypeVC"
bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]
type:xfrChannelMode cellHeight:cellHt];
self.popoverController = [[NSClassFromString(@"UIPopoverController") alloc] initWithContentViewController:graphTypePopover];
I've tried a few things to work around it, but no luck. Works fine still on iPad. Did Apple break something?
Edit: Still not working. Apple changed something in 8.1 to break this. What could be going on?
Edit: Now I think this started with Xcode 6.1, as apps built with Xcode 6.0 don't crash.

OK so I downloaded Xcode 6.0.1 and now this all works again. So it's something Apple broke in Xcode 6.1. I thought it was in iOS 8.1 because that happened at the same time.
