imho, a myriad of ios won't have the same Linux support which rasperry pi's enjoy.

Not sure how that matters? iOS has great SDKs for device access and acceleration. Plenty of Unix software compiles on iOS too.

Which packages would I want but could not compile for iOS?

i think, ios, sdk and tools won't work for iphone 4,5,6 etc - so you won't have developer tool chain support and no way to update them due to non-OSS proprietary base.
