Correct, lirc version 0.8.6-0ubuntu4.1 breaks the module. I reverted to
0.8.6-0ubuntu4 and everything back to normal (no source install, though)
$ apt-cache policy lirc
lirc:
Installed: 0.8.6-0ubuntu4
Candidate: 0.8.6-0ubuntu4.1
Version table:
0.8.6-0ubuntu4.1 0
500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid-updates/main Packages
*** 0.8.6-0ubuntu4 0
500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
$ uname -a
Linux mediageloet 2.6.32-23-generic #37-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jun 11 08:03:28 UTC 2010
x86_64 GNU/Linux
Workaround: Pin the version - add the following to /etc/apt/preferences
Package: lirc
Pin-Priority: 900
Pin: version 0.8.6-0ubuntu4
Now it won't get installed by updates:
apt-cache policy lirc
lirc:
Installed: 0.8.6-0ubuntu4
Candidate: 0.8.6-0ubuntu4
Package pin: 0.8.6-0ubuntu4
Version table:
0.8.6-0ubuntu4.1 900
