I'm trying to set up LIRC so I can use my Creative RM-1500 Remote that came with my SB Audigy 2 ZS Platinum. To set it up I have to set the LIRC_DEVICES variable specifically for app-misc/lirc. Per recent thread, I thought I just needed to set the variable in /etc/portage/app-misc/lirc; however, emerge doesn't seem to be picking it up. It does pick it up if I set it in /etc/make.conf, but I'd rather limit it to just the building of LIRC.
I already emerged lirc by setting it on the command-line; emerge wants to rebuild lirc - for example, I had to set LIRC_DEVICES on the command line for emerging vlc to keep vlc from rebuilding lirc too. Am I not understanding the /etc/portage/app-misc/lirc thing right? What am I doing wrong? (I don't mind rebuilding lirc once more, but I'd like to get it set-up right.)
