Bug 343659 – Please fast-track stabilise app-misc/lirc-0.8.7

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) 2010-11-01 09:37:39 UTC]

I just bumped Lirc to 0.8.7 which fixes compile failures with current and coming kernels in stable and testing.  Please stabilise.

I should add that it may fail for some drivers but it is better as the current situation.

stable x86

I want to note that there's a bug[1] that is present in 0.8.7 that wasn't there in 0.8.7_pre1 which affects some drivers(lirc_sir according to LIRC's bug tracker, I hit it with lirc_it87).

The package does not respect LDFLAGS but I choose to proceed because the current stable doesn't look too good to me. amd64 done

Nils, you really need to open a new bug about this
