            Bug ID: 291370
           Summary: ipheth: doesn’t work without usbmuxd
           Product: Base System
           Version: 15.0-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: usb
          Assignee: usb@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: madamin@pm.me

The driver included for using iPhone’s USB tethering (ipheth) doesn’t work
without usbmuxd port which is not included in the downloadable installer
images, results in users being unable to install needed packages if they can’t
use ethernet or WiFi. There’s a scenario that they can get a network interface
working if they install a port and they can’t because without usbmuxd they
can’t connect to their iPhone’s USB tethering.
