Title:
  package lirc 0.9.0-0ubuntu3 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess
  installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 143

Status in “lirc” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  LIRC is not functioning, and is causing various aspects of my system
  to hang. For example, it slows initial login.  Stopping LIRC is also
  not possible, and therefore, even uninstalling it is impossible
  without neutering /var/lib/dpkg/info/lirc.prerm.

  This happened immediately after upgrade from 12.10 to 13.04.
