--- Begin Message ---Package: lirc Version: 0.9.0~pre1-1 Severity: important File: /etc/init.d/lirc Hello, The instructions (as far as I can make out) say to configure lirc but editing the configuration in /etc/lirc/hardware.conf.

--- Begin Message --- The new release 0.9.4b (currently in experimental) has a completetly new configuration system which basically obsoletes this bug. In particular, the LIRCD_CONF is neither supported nor mentioned in any relevant documentation, and hardware.conf is not used. Closing bug.
