Title:
  lirc_imon.ko does not get installed through dkms

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: lirc

  Dkms does not install the lirc_imon.ko from lirc_modules_source when
  the kernel gets upgraded (in current lucid). The dkms output reads:

  lirc_imon.ko:
  Running module version sanity check.

  Error! Module version 0.6 for lirc_imon.ko
  is not newer than what is already found in kernel 2.6.32-21-generic (0.6).
  You may override by specifying --force.

  Fact is that the lirc_imon.ko provided by the default kernel does not
  work with the following imon controller:

  15c2:ffdc SoundGraph Inc. iMON PAD Remote Controller

  Manually copying the module built by DKMS solves the problem

  sudo cp
  /var/lib/dkms/lirc/kernel-2.6.32-21-generic-i686/module/lirc_imon.ko
  /lib/modules/2.6.32-21-generic/updates/dkms/

  It would be nice if dkms could copy this file regardless of the
  version available in the kernel (using the -f option?)
