Public bug reported: Binary package hint: lirc
I have a bzr branch with an updated lirc for 0.8.6 here: https://code.launchpad.net/~jyoder/+junk/lirc-CVS And a PPA here: https://launchpad.net/~jyoder/+archive/ppa I would like this considered for a FeatureFreeze exception to Karmic. This release fixed NUMEROUS issues with the iMON drivers along with other issues. I've been promoting my PPA for over a month now with very good feedback. This package also cleans up the debian directory structure a lot, making support of new releases in the future much easier. It builds cleanly/installs/and upgrades. NOTE: Kernel updates to the LIRC modules will also be required to include this in Karmic, but I think it's well worth it for the vast improvement in HTPC user experience.
