I started running short on disk space for the non-production FreshPorts hosts. This time, I have decided to ask for donations. See my recent blog post which points to my Patreon account.

Description:
libimobiledevice is a cross-platform software library that talks the protocols to support iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad and Apple TV devices. Unlike other projects, it does not depend on using any existing proprietary libraries and does not require jailbreaking. It allows other software to easily access the device's filesystem, retrieve information about the device and its internals, backup/restore the device, manage SpringBoard icons, manage installed applications, retrieve addressbook/calendars/notes and bookmarks and synchronize music and video to the device. This port installs the library required to handle Apple Binary and XML Property Lists.
