Marking incomplete as releases prior to 10.04 are no longer supported.
Could someone confirm if this issue is still present on a supported
Mythbuntu/MythTV release?

Title:
  irexec isn't started automatically on existing installs

Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV:
  Incomplete
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.
