[Pkg-gtkpod-devel] Bug#1148843: idevicerestore: Too old to flash "Apple Silicon" Macs; upgrade to upstream latest

[Xavier Bestel]

Package: idevicerestore
Version: 1.0.0+git20251002-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where
appropriate ***

Current Apple devices can't be flashed with idevicerestore, they're not
recognized:
❯ root at xav13:~# idevicerestore -e
'/home/xav/Téléchargements/UniversalMac_27.0_26A428_Restore.ipsw'
  idevicerestore 1.0.1 (libirecovery 1.3.1, libtatsu 1.0.5)
  Found device in Port DFU mode
  Unable to discover device type
  root at xav13:~#

My Mac correctly shows up as 05ac:f014 Apple Device (Port DFU Mode)
with
CPID:0022. "Port DFU" is a newer DFU variant used by recent Apple
hardware
such as the M5. Debian ships idevicerestore 1.0.1 with libirecovery
1.3.1,
which can't identify this device. Only the current git versions of the
libimobiledevice stack support it.

Please upgrade !

Regards,
	Xav
