I have got exactly the same error. I am upgrading a stock fit2pc from
ubuntu 8.04 LTS directly to Lucid Lynx.

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of lirc-x:
lirc-x depends on lirc (= 0.8.6-0ubuntu4.1); however:
Package lirc is not configured yet.
No apport report written because the error message indicates its a followup
error from a previous failure.

My first instinct is to remove lirc, but the upgrade is not urgent, so if
somebody wishes to look closer at this I'd be happy to help.
