This driver didn't make the transition where all lirc kernel modules were moved from lirc to the kernel. It has been dropped from upstream.
These days the required changes are probably bigger, the internal kernel interfaces have evolved. Possible actions includes IMHO to close this as a wontfix or re-assign it to the kernel, since it's about a kernel driver. The lirc package is no longer involved in this bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mythbuntu Bug Team, which is subscribed to lirc in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1012165 Title: lirc_wpc8769l is not being built due to a compile error Status in lirc package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: A compile error is preventing the lirc_wpc8769.ko kernel module from being built in ubuntu 12.04. This hardware is necessary to support WEC1020 Winbond CIR Transceiver hardware. Basically - the methods generic_find_next_le_bit and generic_find_next_zero_le_bit have been deprecated. All instances of generic_find_next_le_bit need to be replaced by find_next_bit_le, and all instances of generic_find_next_zero_le_bit need to be replaced by find_next_zero_bit_le. Once this is corrected the kernel module will build correctly and hardware using this module will become usable again.
