That fix isn't required anymore. Last time I checked they had done the symlinks for 64bit iDevices.

The fix is mentioned here: http://iosgods.com/topic/656-tutorialvideo-how-to-set-up-theos-on-your-idevice-ios7ios8/

You are missing an Unix package... Perl

Simply install the latest version of Perl from http://coolstar.org/publicrepo

Architecture (partial) incompatibility

If you get this error while attempting to run the Theos New Instance Creator (NIC):
Illegal instruction: 4

It probably means you are using versions of tools that work on older devices but not on new ones. Read more on the issue here.
It usually affects perl and rsync (installed from the default sources), so to fix this, run these commands as root on the device using SSH or MobileTerminal:

sed -i'' 's/\x00\x30\x93\xe4/\x00\x30\x93\xe5/g;s/\x00\x30\xd3\xe4/\x00\x30\xd3\xe5/g;' /usr/bin/perl; ldid -s /usr/bin/perl
sed -i'' 's/\x00\x30\x93\xe4/\x00\x30\x93\xe5/g;s/\x00\x30\xd3\xe4/\x00\x30\xd3\xe5/g;' /usr/bin/rsync; ldid -s /usr/bin/rsync

You don't have to. Run this bash script

sed -i'' 's/\x00\x30\x93\xe4/\x00\x30\x93\xe5/g;s/\x00\x30\xd3\xe4/\x00\x30\xd3\xe5/g;' /usr/bin/perl
