Same as what Chris mentioned. I occasionally use a Hauppauge 950Q USB device that has IR support on my laptop, but I don't keep it plugged in 24/7 since I frequently travel with this laptop. I don't want to mess around with scripts and disable services, so right now my "workaround" is to only install lirc when I want to use it, and uninstall it when I don't need it.
The maintainer seems to assume that all IR devices are built in and connected 24/7 since he thinks the only a bad dependency can result in lirc being installed without an IR device connected so he sees nothing wrong with the syslog being spammed with messages about it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1768291 Title: lirc is flooding the syslog with two lines each second To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lirc/+bug/1768291/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
