Run the [create-package.sh](https://github.com/RPM-Outpost/libimobiledevice-rpm/blob/master/create-package.sh) script from the command line. It will download the latest version of libimobiledevice and build several RPM packages.\n2. Then, install the packages you want with `sudo dnf install \u003crpm files\u003e`.\n\n### Requirements\nYou need the following packages to make the script work:\nrpmdevtools, usbmuxd, libtool, automake, autoconf, make, gcc, pkgconfig,\npython-devel, libusbmuxd-devel, libplist-devel, python2-Cython, libplist-python,\nopenssl-devel (or gnutls-devel)  \n\nDon't worry: the script detects any missing requirement and can install it for you.\n\n### About root privileges\nBuilding an RPM package with root privileges is **dangerous**, because a mistake in SPEC file could result in running nasty commands.\nSee http://serverfault.com/questions/10027/why-is-it-bad-to-build-rpms-as-root.\n\n## What package(s) do I need?\n| Package's name | Description |\n| -------------- | ----------- |\n| libimobiledevice | Main package. Provides the core library. Allows the nautilus file browser to connect to your iOS device.\n| libimobiledevice-debuginfo | Useful only for debugging libimobiledevice. |\n| libimobiledevice-devel | Development package. Useful to develop applications that use libimobiledevice. |\n| libimobiledevice-utils | Utilities package. Provides a lot of command-line tools to interact with iOS devices |\n\n## How do I update to the latest upstream version?\nWhen a new commit is pushed to the libimobiledevice's repository, you just you have to run the `create-packages.sh` again, and to install the RPM packages normally (ie with `sudo dnf install \u003crpm files\u003e`).\nThis will update any old libimobiledevice's package.\n\n## Supported distributions\n- Fedora 30\n- Fedora 31\n\nWant another distribution?
