    Hi! I would advise this procedure, when trying to install any application in antix:
    1- Search for it in Package Installer an install it from there, if it’s available
    2- Try to install it using Synaptic or “sudo apt install” from the terminal
    3- Try to use the application in a “universal” format (.appimage or .flatpak -please note that .snaps are not compatible with antiX) or Install from a binary compressed format (a .tar file, etc)
    4- Risk installing it from a .deb file (please avoid using .deb’s from a Ubuntu PPA, they may not be compatible and may break your system)

    In your case, try Package Installer (it should be available from the icewm toolbar, or search for it in the menu, or using app-select) and install “iDevice Mounter”– you can search for “IOS”. It should take care of every dependency needed. If you still have problems with dependencies, then you probably broken your antiX install- report here with the error that pops up, se folks can try to help you fix it…

    EDIT: just to check if “idevice mounter” had any problem, I tried installing it from Package installer- it installed fine, and installed this packages:

    “idevice-mounter ideviceinstaller ifuse iphone-antix libimobiledevice-utils python-imobiledevice python-plist”

    P.
