ios-deploy relies on LLDB.framework, which relies on /usr/bin/python and
the 'six' module that's installed on the system. However, it appears to
use the first version of Python on PATH, rather than explicitly
specifying the system install. If a user has a custom install of Python
(e.g., via Homebrew or MacPorts) ahead of the system Python on their
PATH, LLDB.framework will pick up that version instead. If the user
hasn't installed the 'six' module, ios-deploy will fail with a
relatively cryptic error message.
This patch pushes /usr/bin to the front of PATH for the duration of the
ios-deploy run to avoid this scenario.
This patch also removes checks for package six.
Neither Flutter nor any of its direct dependencies/tooling relies on
package six. ios-deploy depends on LLDB.framework (included with Xcode),
which relies on a Python script that imports this package but uses
whichever Python is at the front of the path. Flutter now invokes
ios-deploy with a PATH with /usr/bin forced to the front in order to
avoid this problem.
We could have retained the check out of paranoia, but this seems
unnecessary since it's entirely possible LLDB.framework may one day drop
this dependency, in which case I'd expect the base system install of
Python would likely drop it as well.
ios-deploy 1.9.2 includes fixes for a common source of Xcode breakage
(flutter/flutter#4326) with Xcode 8.3.3 + iOS 10.3.3, and is required to
to support Xcode 9 (flutter/flutter#11875).
Extract out IMobileDevice class, move class to idevice_id, ideviceinfo
(and eventually other libimobiledevice tools such as iproxy) behind this
interface.
Add tests for the case where libimobiledevice is not installed, the case
where it returns no devices, and the case where it returns device IDs.
