This is not a bug in USC: by design, its installations are non-
interactive. After all, you might install multiple packages at the same
time, or even close USC before the installation completes. This is
allowed by Debian policy: "Maintainer scripts are not guaranteed to run
with a controlling terminal and may not be able to interact with the
user. They must be able to fall back to noninteractive behavior if no
controlling terminal is available." <https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-
policy/ch-maintainerscripts.html#s-controllingterminal>
So if the lirc package fails to install without configuration, that is a
bug in the package. Please report it using "ubuntu-bug lirc".
