cocoapods - Can not perform `pod install` under el capitan (15A279b)

Question

I ran pod install with El Capitan and got this error:

Errno::EPERM - Operation not permitted - /Users/../Pods/Pods.xcodeproj/xcuserdata/root.xcuserdatad

Here's my environment: El Capitan (15A279b), Xcode Version 7.0 (7A220), cocoapod 0.38.2. Any ideas? Thanks!!!

The reason I use xcode7 (and not 6.4) is that I need to target an existing project to iOS9 for testing. And the reason I am using El Capitan is that xcode7 doesn't run under Yosemite. And I need to replace a library (managed by cocoapod) that no longer works under iOS9.

Here's how I install cocoapods in El Capitan sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin cocoapods as suggested by this link Cannot install cocoa pods after uninstalling, results in error

pod --version

returns

0.38.2
