Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV: Triaged
Status in “lirc” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed

Bug description:
Irexec does not start with the lirc service on 9.10 (Ubuntu+MythTV, not 
Mythbuntu). In my testing, it seems that the following line might be the issue.

(from /etc/init.d/lirc)
start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --oknodo --exec /usr/bin/irexec -- -d 
/etc/lirc/lircrc < /dev/null

I've compared my two systems and there doesn't seem to be that big of 
difference (one is Mythbuntu, the other is Ubuntu+MythTV). The Mythbuntu system 
works correctly where the Ubuntu+MythTV does not.

/etc/lirc/lircrc does not exist on either system.

If I edit the line to just

start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --oknodo --exec /usr/bin/irexec --

Then it does work, but it stays in the terminal and thus is not really a viable 
option.
