Public bug reported:

When connection iPhone 2022 SE using lightning to USB-A or USB-C to
downloading/synchronizing all images (several thousand) from the phone
to the computer. Then process completes fine without any error messages,
however some of the image file are partly corrupted during the process.
For jpeg images this results in different kinds of artifacts in the
images, e.g. green blocks or gray stripes.

I have tried the start over several times, every time it results in some
(a few) corrupted files. However it is not the same files each time, and
I cannot see any pattern in which files gets corrupted.

When using the same setup of rapid-photo-downloader (with other versions
of the package and its dependencies) on my PopOS 24.04 machine (based of
Ubuntu 24.04) this problem does not occur.

I suspect that it is https://github.com/libimobiledevice/ifuse 1.2.0
that causes the problem. On this linked web page they currently write:
"⚠️ Version 1.2.0 has a serious bug that results in data corruption.
Regression was introduced in commit 36956a and fixed in Version 1.2.1
with commit 903a29."

As Ubuntu 26.04 currently uses ifuse 1.2.0-2 this seems likely to be the
problem.
