[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] [Pkg-gtkpod-devel] Bug#941703: libimobiledevice6: Crashes upower with stack smashing when connecting an iPhone

[Diego Escalante Urrelo]

Sorry for the radio silence, I was away for a few days.
Just for reference, I run into the crash after updating my unstable
system on 2019-09-30, and it seems libusbmuxd was updated:
libusbmuxd4:amd64 (1.1.0~git20181007.07a493a-1, 1.1.0~git20190924.b097ea3-2)

I had no idea libusbmuxd behaved like that with its types/API, I got
to that same struct but didn't even consider it had been changed
without notice!

Anyway, thanks for your work on this. Let me know if I can help with
anything else.
