There are a lot of unrelated problems reported in this bug. The original
problem was this:
ls: cannot access /lib/modules/3.2.0-24-generic/kernel/drivers/staging/lirc:
No such file or directory
The solution to this would be to patch lirc.postinst to look in
I am having the same experience. After creating the symbolic link as
suggested above. I restart lirc and I get:
strator@mythbox:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/lirc restart
* Stopping remote control daemon(s): LIRC [fail]
* Loading LIRC modules
I now have LIRC compiled with the iguanaIR driver, but the LIRC install
is still broken. Without the symlink fix, I get the ls error. With it, I
still get
Errors were encountered while processing:
lirc
I've tried apt-get clean, dpkg --configure -a and apt-get install -f,
none fix the broken
My LIRC was working with iguanaIR on a brand new install of 12.04. I
stupidly let ubuntu update, and it broke LIRC. After remove of LIRC, I
get
htpc@htpc:~$ sudo apt-get install lirc

Interesting: it wasn't working for me.
The link will need to be kernel-specific of course.

Title:
lirc installation error in Ubuntu 12.04
To
got the same problem:
~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure lirc
ls: cannot access /lib/modules/3.2.0-26-generic/kernel/drivers/staging/lirc: No
such file or directory
* Loading LIRC modules [ OK ]
* Starting remote control daemon(s) : LIRC
weel, the last fail was due to the new device /dev/lircd, while lircd
still assume it to be /dev/lirc (?)
After adding 'REMOTE_DEVICE=/dev/lircd' to hardware.conf, at least I
got the restart right:
~$ sudo /etc/init.d/lirc restart
* Stopping remote control daemon(s): LIRC [ OK ]
Mythbuntu 12.04 64-bit, fresh install updated to 3.2.0-25 kernel . I
don't have:
/lib/modules/3.2.0-25-generic/kernel/drivers/staging/lirc
but I do have:
/lib/modules/3.2.0-25-generic/kernel/drivers/staging/media/lirc
So workaround is to:
sudo ln -s
Thanks Ian for this. I will create the symlink and re-install lirc.
Curiously though, LIRC was actually working for me, for reasons unkown
(I've been ignoring the error message, my remote control works all the
same)
