[Pkg-gtkpod-devel] Bug#941682: Missing program from libimobiledevice-utils suite

[John Cooper]

Package: libimobiledevice-utils

Version: 1.2.1~git20181030.92c5462-1





When attempting to install and/or check the files installed by visiting for example (https://packages.debian.org/buster/amd64/libimobiledevice-utils/filelist), it list all of the files installed. However it is currently missing one major component of the same suite called idevicerestore as major missing part. This piece of software is needed to run any restore operations for reloading a new clean instance of the iDevice’s firmware (iOS, iPadOS etc). It can be in the package specified however it may be better for it to be an exception to the rule as it will need to be updated more frequently and/or kept more closely up to date than the rest of Debian. Given the mobile devices firmware (software update) regularity carried out by Apple Inc.



I suggest releasing a separate regularly updated package to complete the suite.
