Unable to compile

[rayzorben]

Is there a distro that includes the packages as listed:

sudo apt-get install \
    build-essential \
    pkg-config \
    checkinstall \
    git \
    autoconf \
    automake \
    libtool-bin \
    libreadline-dev \
    libusb-1.0-0-dev \
    libplist-dev \
    libimobiledevice-dev \
    libimobiledevice-glue-dev \
    libcurl4-openssl-dev \
    libssl-dev \
    libzip-dev \
    zlib1g-dev

This is missing libimobiledevice-glue-dev. I have tried on debian latest, ubuntu latest, ubuntu 21, ubuntu 20 and ubuntu 19.

I tried going to each of the individual projects (libimobiledevice-glue-dev) and make those manually, but they also seem to have missing packages. I built libplist, libimobiledevice-glue, then libirecovery and finally idevicerestore. When building idevicerestore I got the following error

configure: error: Package requirements (libimobiledevice-1.0 >= 1.3.0) were not met:

Requested 'libimobiledevice-1.0 >= 1.3.0' but version of libimobiledevice is 1.2.1

Which is odd because I built libimobiledevice from source.

The distros don't have that package yet because it was not officially released yet. If you build from source you need to make sure to have a different prefix since it will check the default prefix first, or try to remove libimobiledevice-dev. I suggest to try my linux build script (or manually perform the steps in it). It will build and install everything in /usr/local prefix, and then you also need to tell pkg-config to look there:

PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig ./autogen.sh

etc.

Thanks, I just tried running your script, and it doesn't build fully. I see this in the logs

checking for libirecovery... no
configure: error: Package requirements (libirecovery-1.0 >= 1.0.1) were not met:

No package 'libirecovery-1.0' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables libirecovery_CFLAGS

Tried running manually for libirecovery and I get this

checking readline/readline.h presence... no
checking for readline/readline.h... no
configure: error: Please install readline development headers

[rayzorben]

Nevermind, I got it. But now that I finally have it, doesn't look like it is working for me

▒▓ ~/Dow/wd  idevicerestore --latest       ✔ │ 1m 27s │ ubuntu-idevice ⬢ ▓▒░

The iPhone is attached, I see it show up in journalctl. It is in restore mode.

Is libirecovery properly installed? It has a udev rule to set permissions for the usb device files. Check with irecovery -q if it shows device info. If not, try to run it as root with sudo irecovery -q. If it only works with sudo, then check if you are in the group that is specified in the udev rules file /lib/udev/rules.d/39-libirecovery.rules (usually plugdev). You can run the groups command to see what groups your current user is in.

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables libirecovery_CFLAGS and libirecovery_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details.
