iPhone doesn't charge when plugged in after disconnect

[clayg]

* Impact
the usbmuxd service is not restarted after disconnecting/reconnecting a device, which means users need to reboot (or use the command line to activate the service) to have their iphone handled a second time in a session

* Test case
- open an Ubuntu/GNOME session and connect an iphone
- disconnect the device
- connect it again

-> it should be handled the second time like it was the first time

* Regression potential
The changes are in the udev rule, just make sure that idevices are correctly detected when connected

----------------------------

Plugging in the iPhone via usb will charge the iPhone after reboot, but after disconnect usbmuxd's systemctl service is inactive and does not start.

[Leo Soares (leojrfs)]

using the "39-usbmuxd.rules" file from cosmic (usbmux-1.1.1~git20180428.b95a0a0-1) solves the problem.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Leo Soares (leojrfs)]

This patch solves the issue by backporting the udev rule from usbmuxd-1.1.1~git20180428.b95a0a0-1 (cosmic)

This is a debdiff for Bionic applicable to 1.1.0-2build1. I built this in pbuilder
and it builds successfully, and I installed it, the patch works as intended.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

Thanks Leo for the patch, looking at the upstream git log there were some other follow up fixes to the udev rules, I included those as well and uploaded as a SRU to bionic now

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

The issue was fixed in cosmic

[Leo Soares (leojrfs)]

where can I track the progress of the fix until it gets released in bionic? i cant seem to find it in sru

Plugged in my phone, it asked me to unlock which I did, and then it started charging.
Unplugged the phone.
Plugged the phone back in again and it continued charging.
Repeated this process 3 times and it worked.

Marking as verification done.
