Answer 1

i recently faced the same issue. The problem seems to be that the ZBar SDK is not ready for the armv7s architecture.

I solved the problem this way:

1. Go to the ZBar homepage and navigate to the mercurial repository (direct link)
2. Download the zbar repository as zip.
3. Unzip the file and navigate to the subfolder named "iphone".
4. Open the XCode project.
5. Delete the "Examples" folder (the folder caused a build error on my machine).
6. Hit "CMD + B" and build the source.
7. Find your new libzbar.a file. (User/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/zbar...)
8. Replace the old libzbar.a file in your project with the new one.
9. Hit "CMD + R" and you are good to go.
