Research direction
The deprecation warning is in XLFormRowDescriptorViewController.h. The issue is about replacing UIPopoverController with UIPopoverPresentationController for iOS 9+. Check the current codebase to see if the class still exists and if any other files reference it. There may be commentary in the issue thread about specific code changes. A maintainer should confirm the correct replacement approach.
