Such a fix is just not possible in latest lirc 0.9.4 since it does not contain any remotes definitions. Although it's possible to patch current version, from zesty+ the remote definitions lives in http://sf.net/p/lirc-remotes; this is also whar other distros use. So, the best solution here would be to close this ticket and open a new at the upstream remotes project.
