Bug 30847 – emerge lirc with '--with-transmitter' option fails on access error

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Robert Shideleff 2003-10-10 11:28:49 UTC]

Using the '--with-transmitter' option seems to cause the lirc ebuild to fail. 
This occurs with any driver target. (Although in the 'reproduce' area below I 
limited it to the serial driver) 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. LIRC_OPTS="--with-driver=serial --with-port=0x3f8 --with-irq=4 
--with-transmitter"; emerge lirc 
2. 
3. 
Actual Results:

just tried vanilla-source 2.4.22 and it works here

 * make sure you have IrDA (infrared) support
 * in your kernel or this will fail
