Comment 28 for bug 153457

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
