just got some errors runnign ZBar with my iOS App.
I included the newest Beta Version 1.3.1 in my Project and am Running the App locally on my iOS7 Device (iPhone 5)
I was on the ZBar train as well for quite a while dealing with these issues since they have not been updating the SDK. Luckily if your app only has to support iOS7 onwards (which most iOS users are on now!) there is now QR Code reading support in AVFoundation so you can build your own reader very easily. Check out this tutorial:

Then bask in the beauty that is a totally Apple supported QR Code reader!
