The new version 0.9.4b in zesty - experimental has completely new driver
handling based on dynamic loading. While it doesn't include the iguanaIR
driver, it's a simple task to compile it out-of-tree and add it to lirc
without changing anything of the installed package. See
https://github.com/iguanaworks/iguanair-lirc. If the iguanair driver
should be made part of ubuntu, it should be a separate package like
lirc-drv-iguanair, available on some other distros

Title:
  iguanaIR support not functional

Status in lirc package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: lirc

  Upon installation (or dpkg-reconfigure) of the lirc package, the
  configuration gives me the option to support my iguanaworks USB IR
  receiver.  Unfortunately, running lircd --driver=help suggests the
  lirc package doesn't have iguanaIR support compiled in to it.  Can we
  add support for this?

  It turns out we need the iguana IR package in intrepid before we can
  get this resolved.
