We really do appreciate you opening this ticket to help improve
Mythbuntu, but it needs to be closed for a number of reasons. The
biggest one is that upstream has moved on to a new version and believes
this to be fixed. Could you please verify if this issue still exists in
the latest version?

Please do not let the closing of this ticket dissuade you from opening a
new ticket if this (or any other) problem occurs with the newer
versions.

Title:
  irexec isn't started automatically on existing installs

Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV:
  Expired
Status in lirc package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Irexec does not start with the lirc service on 9.10 (Ubuntu+MythTV,
  not Mythbuntu). In my testing, it seems that the following line might
  be the issue.

  (from /etc/init.d/lirc)
  start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --oknodo --exec /usr/bin/irexec -- -d /etc/lirc/lircrc < /dev/null

  I've compared my two systems and there doesn't seem to be that big of
  difference (one is Mythbuntu, the other is Ubuntu+MythTV). The
  Mythbuntu system works correctly where the Ubuntu+MythTV does not.

  /etc/lirc/lircrc does not exist on either system.

  If I edit the line to just

  start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --oknodo --exec /usr/bin/irexec --

  Then it does work, but it stays in the terminal and thus is not really
  a viable option.
