Hi Paul

I've come across a new problem with one of my other players when I
upgrading to 3.5.0 - lircd doesn't seem to be working.  I have another
old armv6 Pi which was running 3.22 fine with lircd configured with an
old Microsoft infrared receiver on lirc1 controlling jivelite.  I did an
inplace upgrade to 3.5 and all's working apart from I was getting no
response to infrared.  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling lirc, but
then I was getting an error and lirc wouldn't start.  So, then I took a
fresh 3.5 image and configured it from scratch, but it doesn't look like
lirc's working.   When it's booting up, I got an error message to the
tune of "can't open or create <some path which I don't recall>
lircd.pid" and lirc won't start.

So, I just tried installing lirc on a completly different armv7 Pi2b
player, and it looks like the same problem - lirc won't start there
either - install seems to run, but lirc won't start.

So, feels like lirc may be generally broken on 3.5....
