I go to a more complex call until the issue goes away. Then file a bug. For me,
adding options in fixed the issue.
let attributed = NSAttributedString(html: data, options: [:],
documentAttributes: nil)
Swift seems to struggle with these because without "options", the API could
match either one.
public init?(html data: Data, documentAttributes dict:
AutoreleasingUnsafeMutablePointer<NSDictionary?>?)
public init?(html data: Data, options: [AnyHashable : Any] = [:],
documentAttributes dict: AutoreleasingUnsafeMutablePointer<NSDictionary?>?)
