The root cause here seems to be that the lircd.conf file was updated
together with lirc. From the new version 0.9.4 (zesty) the remote
definitions are not longer part of the lirc package, so this just cannot
happen. So, from a lirc perspective this bug is solved by the
lirc-0.8.4c changelog.

That said, any lircd.conf sourcing files from the lirc package will be a
problem when upgrading.

Title:
  mceusb remote stops working after lucid->precise upgrade

Status in lirc package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in mythbuntu-lirc-generator package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  I had a previously functioning mceusb remote with lucid.  After the
  precise upgrade it stopped working.

  It appears that this is caused by button names that changed with the
  upgrade.  The /etc/lirc/lircd.conf sources the lircd.conf included
  with the package so these button names in the lircrc may not be
  consistent.

   If I re-run mythbuntu-lirc-generator after the upgrade, my media
  applications begin working again.
