I'm not an expert, but it seems that the pace of Apple's OS changes and
the updates needed by the libimobiledevice team to keep up with them
might mean that one cannot rely on either Ubuntu's packaging of
libimobiledevice or a separate ppa, but must just build things from the
git repository, if you know how.

This worked for me:

    19  16:35   git clone 
https://github.com/libimobiledevice/libimobiledevice.git
    20  16:35   cd libimobiledevice
    21  16:35   ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/local/libimobiledevice
    22  16:36   make
    23  16:36   sudo make install

At this point I changed my LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include
/usr/local/libimobiledevice/lib at the front, so ifuse, etc., will load
the new library instead of the pre-installed one.  I use tcsh so that
command looks like

setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/local/libimobiledevice/lib:

Then the following worked (after some fidgeting, rebooting my iPod
Touch, etc.):

    37  16:44   idevicepair pair
    38  16:45   ifuse /media/iPod/

At least I can load my music into Rhythmbox, etc.
