There is another question about generic command failures in Xcode, but I want to specifically ask about the "LinkStoryboards" command. This build error occurred after deleting a storyboard from my project and no amount of cleaning or restarting Xcode would help.
A LinkStoryboards failure means that the compiler could not find a storyboard used in a Storyboard Reference.
To fix my particular issue, I had to locate any Storyboard References to my deleted storyboard and delete those references.
In my case, I have missed to add an entry point in my Storyboard.

Did not find view controller with identifier "SomeVC" in Main.storyboard, referenced from SomeStoryboard.storyboard

Rhodarhodamine When I looked under the show a report navigator menu, I realized that I had written the storyboardId wrong, when I corrected the file I saw there, the problem was solved for me.
In my case, I was copy-pasting several views and supporting files. When I copy-pasted everything in one folder I received this error.
So I copy-pasted views and supporting files one by one, cleaned the building folder and then everything started to work.
