Hi!
lirc maintainer speaking... note that the /var/run/lirc/lircd path just
is a default configuration value from a lirc user's point of view.
Specifically, in scenarios with several remotes (e. g., one doing ir
blasting) the path could be something else. So, even if changing the
hardcoded default will solve Thomas's problem, it will not solve all
users.
A proper fix for this needs to be something accepted by upstream, I guess.
Cheers!
